You may have felt the baby move but didn't realize it. If you felt gas bubbles or a butterfly feeling that's the baby.

It's normal, If this is your first child then you should be expecting it anyday now. Just be patient. Also, you should feel the baby atleast moving if not kicking, if that makes sense. But sometimes you don't realize the moving and mistake it for gas. I didn't realize it until I was pregnant with my 2nd, 3rd, and 4th.
As long as the baby is moving on the ultrasound then you shouldn't have anything to worry about. It will all come in due time and when It does you will know it and It will be the most sweetest moment ever. Good luck with your pregnancy and try not to be such a worry wart. I was one with my 1st pregnancy, but after you have been through it, you look back and wonder why you were worrying so darn much. lol

Maybe the baby is moving but you are not able to recognize the moves, I dont know if you have been pregnant before and know what it feels like. I didnt and couldnt really tell when I felt it untill late in the 5 month, I just thought it was gas bubbles and weird things but it was the baby moving

With my daughter, I didn't realize it for about a week, and you are right on schedule if you haven't realized you have felt it yet. Sit really still and quietly for a little while. After a few minutes of not moving, pay attention and you should feel what I can only describe as fluttering. You won't be able to see it from outside for another month or so, but you should be able to feel a light fluttering sensation. That is your baby moving. Congratulations on your new edition and I hope all goes well for you.

The normal range for pregnancy movement is anytime from 18 - 25 weeks gest. especially for first time pregnancy. Those feelings of gas you think your feeling is probably baby. If your LMP can hear the heart beat at the appointments I would try not to worry too much - I know easier said than done

That is normal. I felt fluttering until about the 6th month then the kicks began to get noticable. If you have addressed this issue with your OBGYN and he/she is not concerened then don't worry yourself.

They say average of 16-20 weeks. it wont be like a fierce kick it will feel like butterflies fluttering in your tummy. The KICKIN comes later and sometimes (for me anyways) it can be painful!

I would ask you doctor but i can tell you boys are very lazy. My son dis not move a whole lot either. My daughter moved all the time. You still need too check with your doctor.

Some times it's hard to know what it feels like. Try this, drink some orange juice and then lay down on your left side. You could feel something then.
