Normal. Normal. Normal. This is early to feel movement with your first - there may be times thoughout pregnancy when you won't feel any movement... Relax and enjoy your pregnancy Wink

Theres still A LOT of room for the baby to move. The baby could be facing your back side, and kicking back there, and you won't feel it. It's hard not to worry i know, but sounds normal to me

Normal. I'm 19 weeks and I've been feeling baby move for a good two weeks now. I'm pretty sure they are hiccups because it will move every 2-3 seconds for a good minute. But it's really nice having your partner feel it. He was happy Very Happy!

It's very normal. I didn't start having more consistent movement (feeling something daily every day) until around 23 or 24 weeks, even then, I'd sometimes have a quiet day. Around 27 weeks or so, the movements became very consistent, and I could tell she had definite sleep/wake cycles. For example, my baby hardly moves in the morning before lunchtime and gradually perks up as the day wears on until by evening and night she is really going at it.
