But donât worry if you hit that milestone and donât feel anything in your abdomen. âAs an ob-gyn, I thought I would feel my own baby moving long before 20 weeks, but I didnât feel anything until 22 weeks,â she adds. If youâve been pregnant before, or you live in a ââquiet or rural place,â you may feel kicks as early as 17 to 18 weeks, Dr. Artal says. Additionally, if your placenta attaches in the front of your uterus instead of in the back, it may make it harder to feel movements, particularly early on.
If this is your first pregnancy, then you will probably only start to feel your baby kick or move until between the 16th and 22nd week of your pregnancy. It is also common for women who have had previous pregnancies to feel their baby move before first time mothers â sometimes as early as 13 weeks, although this is not always the case.
