Yeeeah! You ladies ROCK! I can't tell you how much better I feel...I mean I have severe anxiety, ect soooooooooooooo I was afraid (as always) something was wrong!

Anyway thank you all for your words/experiences of wisdom!

I was 320 when I was pregnant with my son and still felt flutters pretty early. However just like everything else it varies from person to person. Some people feel them at 16 weeks some don't feel them until 25 (or even later, I bet but I am only going by friends reports).

Don't worry...it will come, and you'll know it when you feel it! :)

sorry if someone else has suggested this...im half skimming through the responses.
I wouldnt worry to much about feeling movement, and you are not to "fat" to feel movement. Each person is different as to when they feel movement. With each pregnancy after this one you will recognize what you thought were "nothing" to HOLY CRAP!!! My first was an active jumping bean!!!

Now, reasons WHY, you may not feel baby right now. Position of the baby for one. He/she is at a size where your womb is like a big ol football field. Up in the corner down low smack dab in the middle etc....

This now comes to placement of the placenta...Where the placenta is attached, he/she could be hiding behind it and kicking and punching and rolling around up against it and you wont feel a thing....

My placenta is attached DIRECTLY to the front of my uterus...THANK GOD!!! Why? Cuz i at least could/can get rest because I cant "feel" all the movements etc...Now since he is engaged etc...its a party in my tummy...everynight...starting at 100am...he plays goes back to sleep and i can sleep and back up to pee at 330am when he decides to play again.

So try not to worry mama. It will be fine.
