when did you feel the kicks?
Im 21 weeks and started feeling them around 18
But, I only feel them like three or four times a day and only a couple at a time.
Is this ok? when do you feel them more regularly?

Right now your baby could fit in your hand or just a little bigger. So when the baby floats close to an obstacle.... It kicks. This is the great time to enjoy those little flutters. As a mother of 3, believe me- enjoy the small kicks. They will become much harder. My oldest stretched during a day of shopping ( I was 8 1/2 months) for a nursing bra, and I farted and pee'd my pants.
hahahahahaha

I started feeling him move about 16 weeks, but only when I was lying down. Now at 21 weeks it is a few times throughout the day and especially at night.
I asked my doctor and he said that I should start feeling the baby move consistently at about 28 weeks. He also said that by then my husband will be able to feel the movement too:)

I started feeling my daughter kick at about 18 weeks but when you get further along you will feel every movement the baby makes. Once the baby starts growing and there is no room left in your tummy to move you will feel it all.

That sounds about right. As you get closer to the end the doc will tell you how many times you are supposed to feel them kick. They'll have you do kick counts but not until a little later on. I started feeling my little one move about 20 weeks. The more they grow the more you'll feel them....maybe it will even get to a point it hurts...lol

that sounds fine, the baby could be moving alot more but you might not feel every move because of the babies position in the uterus. when the baby gets bigger(about a month and a half more) you will be able to feel more movements because there will be alot less space in there. if you dont feel the movements that you usualy do then call your obgyn.

That is ok, the baby is still very small and depending on his position you may feel them more at times and less at others. For instance, if his back is facing your stomach the movement will not be as obvious. As your baby grows, you will feel more movement and it will become stronger.

I'm 19 weeks pregnant and my baby is very active, I feel him several times a day. With my daughter, I only felt her once or twice a day at this point.

Yeah, when I was around 20 weeks I started feeling them. Before too long (give it another few weeks) you will start feeling the little one moving around like crazy. Mine hardly stops moving now!!!!

i started to feel them at 16-17 weeks!
but at your stage you would only feel the movement as many as you mentioned and it is ok.. if you are still worried about it then ask your midwife
