Do a sonogram. Your doctor will be able to see the heartbeat.

No there is no problem. I think as long as you feel them by either 26 or 28 weeks you are fine.
You could also be feeling them, and not knowing what it is just yet. The movements are very weak at first...you could be mistaking them for something else. & its a very indescribable feeling. I felt them around 18 weeks but wasn't sure of what it was for a while after. For me, they were so light at first...I would hardly notice them!
You will feel your little peanut very soon! and when you do, it keeps getting stronger and stronger and by the end you will be saying "chill out in there!",....they kick you constantly and it always seems to be when you are trying to go to bed!!

Foetal movements are usually felt about 20 weeks in a first pregnancy.Has the foetal heart been heard when you have been attending ante-natal?.It probably is nothing to worry about as I suspect that this is your first pregnancy and therefore have not experienced foetal movements before.
However it is certainly worth seeing your doctor so that he can check the foetal heart for you and arrange a scan if he thought necessary.
See your doctor to avoid the worry

It is hard with your first baby to know what are movements, the first ones are really quite soft.
Let your dr know and ask for an ultrasound for peace of mind. See if they will let you listen to the heartbeat, that's always a special moment.
Don't think on it for now,but get a checkup to make sure.

20 weeks is still fairly early to feel a baby's movements, especially for a first baby. Often you feel them but don't recognise that that's what they are; they can feel like gas or normal gurglings, whereas with a 2nd or subsequent bub you recognise it all earlier.
If you're really stressed, a visit to your Dr and listening to the heartbeat can make you feel better.

could be youre not recognizing them and its normal to not feel them until after 20 weeks. your pregnancy is completely unique to you so try not to stress by comparing too much. have you had an ultrasound? have you heard the heartbeat? also, some babies are not as active as others so it may take longer to feel the movements. the main thing is to try not to worry too much. good luck to you

Has he moved in the past? if so drink some juice and lay on your left side. wait about 30 min if you do not feel anything then call your doctor. If not it is still really early, at 20 weeks It is hare to fell anything

Probably not, but its worth getting checked.
They are very soft movements - like a butterfly in your tummy - maybe you just haven't noticed them!
Go get it checked hun - don't go getting stressed about it - not good for you or baby.
Good luck - fingers crossed for you.

I'm sure the baby is moving maybe he or she is active when your sleeping or resting! i am sure there isn't a problem but there will be if you keep stressing !! just voice your concerns at your next Dr. appointment
