A member asked:

Yes: It's still very early in your pregnancy. Some women don't feel regular fetal movement until 22-23 weeks of pregnancy, so i wouldn't worry at this point. Posterior placentas actually make it somewhat easier to feel movement than anterior placentas. I'm sure in 3-4 more weeks, you'll be feeling a lot more movement every day. Good luck!
