I am 27 weeks and now I am able to feel the baby move occasionally. Don't uou worry. It is too soon to feel the movement of the baby. When I was 16 weeks , I never felt the baby at all. But everything is normal. You still are not energeyic as you used to be before pregnancy hopping and jumping as u wish, so count everything normal.

I didn't feel any kicks until I was 21 weeks! I'm a slender person too. Don't worry too much you're still early on to feel, although it is possible! My doctor told me even throughout the 20s weeks it's not uncommon to not feel the baby for a day because it is still small enough to be in a weird spot.

Don't worry mama, try to relax... I was the same I didn't feel movements or at least I wasn't sure there were the baby until about 20weeks it really depends on the baby and your body. In time u will feel those amazing but strange kicks, rolls and punches lol The best time for me to tell was after meals or laying still in bed in the mornings or nighttime, so pay close attention!

I didn't feel mine until after 20 weeks. I saw her moving around a ton on the ultrasound but couldn't feel it. Its perfectly normal not to feel anything especially for a ftm.

With my first born she hardly moved, it was rare i felt her, even towards the end. She is healthy and fine! With my sec, he started wiggling at 18wks and about 21wks i feel his kicks and turns

I am 16 wk 5 days. Just started getting slight movement. This is my 3rd baby. Don't worry. I didn't feel anything till 18 wks with my first. If you are symptom free...that is great. I still get sick but it is tapering down to only a few times a day. So then I get worried something is up...lol I think with is just part of being a mom. I have too.:-P wait for my anatomy scan till the 30th.... I feel on pins and needles waiting. Hang in there!
