See below: If this is your first baby you typically won't feel baby until 20 weeks or so and even then may not be much or super consistent.

No: The classic teaching regarding fetal movement is that it is first appreciated at about 20 weeks. Some women experience it as early as 16 weeks but some as late as 22 weeks. Thus, don't panic and give it some time.

Nope!: All is well - most women begin feeling quickening after 20 weeks. Enjoy the second trimester!
