After reaching the 21st week of pregnancy, I have not felt any movement from my baby. Is this normal? What should I expect at this stage?
Artificial Intelligence Health Assistant's Answer

It is common for pregnant women to start feeling their baby's movements between 18-25 weeks. However, every pregnancy is different, and some women may not feel consistent movement until later on. If you are concerned about the lack of movement, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider. They can perform an ultrasound or listen to the baby's heartbeat to ensure everything is progressing normally. Keep in mind that factors such as the position of the placenta or excess weight can affect how easily you feel your baby's movements. As your pregnancy progresses, you should begin to notice more distinct and regular movements from your little one.

I don't think I really felt my baby until I was 24 weeks or so, some people dont feel the baby as soon as others I would give it time.

My baby started kicking at 18 weeks, which is funny cause they tell you that it's just flutters but it was actual kicks, each woman is different and I'll tell you this if you're unsure call your maternity doctor. The only time I do since I'm past 26 weeks and they consider anytime after 26 weeks to be crucial for count kicking rather than anything under 26 weeks. I always got told that some days my daughter would probably be resting and I was just worrying and that's the truth. Give it time but if ever unsure call your maternity doctor.
