My 2nd baby (I am pregnant with now at almost 27weeks) I felt earlier still which is normal with subsequent pregnancies since you know what it feels like, so I think about 15- 16 weeks I felt it this time.
The first time baby was felt outside was about 22 weeks I think? About the same for both pregnancies.
As long as your doctor appts. are going ok, I would give it a little more time.
Now I am pregnant with my second. almost 24 weeks. I first felt flutters and the feeling of having huge gas bubbles at 17-18 weeks, but wasn't sure if it was the baby. I couldn't say it was the baby for sure until 19-20 weeks, when I felt flips and little pokes. at the end of the 21st week we felt the baby from the outside, and now I have felt kicks from the outside a few times 22-23 weeks. By this point the movements are starting to have a pattern; baby is more active at certain times each day/night, and every day I definitely feel baby moving!
