Hi, I'm currently 18.3 weeks pregnant with my first child and I haven't felt any fetal movements yet. When can I expect to start feeling the baby's kicks?
Artificial Intelligence Health Assistant's Answer

It is common for first-time mothers to start feeling their baby's movements between 18-25 weeks of pregnancy. However, every pregnancy is different, and some women may not feel anything until later on. If you are concerned about the lack of fetal movements, it is best to consult your healthcare provider for reassurance and guidance. They may recommend monitoring techniques such as kick counts or an ultrasound to ensure everything is progressing well with your baby's development. Remember that feeling consistent movement is typically a positive sign of a healthy pregnancy, but if you have any concerns or notice a sudden decrease in movement, it's important to seek medical attention promptly.

Any day now :) I felt it for the first time laying down on the couch. The baby is small so don't expect a big kick. Relax your body and concentrate in peace. You'll know it's him/her when you feel it.
