Movement

So I'm a big lady size uk 22. I'm 20 weeks today and have felt no recognisable movement as of yet. I do have a noticeable bump. I'm just wondering if any other larger ladies can give me an insight as to when they felt movement from their little one? No negativity please yes I'm overweight, I was losing weight when I fell pregnant and hope to continue this after baby arrives :)

I'm a size au16 and have felt movement since about 15weeks with flutters etc and am now 24+5 and feel really big movement and can even see it through my skin sometimes - have felt definate kicks since about 19 wks. THis is my third pregnancy though so I no what I'm feeling.  I wouldn't worry too much as depending on where your bubby is sitting it could take another couple weeks before you feel the big kicks :) Good luck with it all
