22 weeks pregnant, and wondering how much baby movements I should be feeling....

Hello, I am 22 weeks pregnant, so far it seems to be a normal pregnancy, but I am wondering how many baby movements I should be feeling...
I have felt something like butterflies in my tummy or a fluttery sensation and only once in a while. A couple weeks ago I had my last check up and the Dr. said everything seems well...
So my question is when should I start feeling more movements, or stronger ones? Is there any reason I should worry?

THANKS SO MUCH!

not everyone feels the fluttery sensation, i am 24 weeks with my first and i never felt butterflys or any thing like that. my fist movements were two kicks, i was laying in bed at 18 weeks 6 days and felt a thump, ( i was like  "what was that") then i felt it again. then nothing tell the next day, and only once then, slowly picked up more and more kicks, now third day strait my girl is trying to come out my tummy, lol, it is visible by looking you can see her move my skin a half inch to a full inch. but back on topic i had only felt kicks and bulges touching my tummy, not flutering from baby moving in the fluid. it is true what they say, no pregnancy is alike another.

I'm 19 weeks pregnant today, and I think I felt movements at around 16 weeks..but now i just stated to feel an actual "kicking" feeling today like "ploop,ploop" feelings. Maybe the bubble feeing everyone talks about.

Does it start as little flutters and a tingly sensation and then get more prominent like an acutal kick. I only feel it every coupld days or so. Is that normal? It worries me that everyone says they feel it every day a few times a day :( Is baby ok?? I have an appt on Sept. 27th to find out the sex!

If anyone thinks of it, pray for me and my anxiety. I have terrible anxiety and don't know how to stop it. Allabout the baby not bein ok. I'm sure everything is ok though, just love it so much and so scared something is wrong.

Will someone let me know what they think of my situation :} :} much love, peace and love to all.
