Doesnt feel the baby

Im 16 weeks and i dont feel the baby movements, i dont feel anything.
Last week sometimes kind of i was feeling but last couple of days nothing.
Is it something for being concern?

I'm currently 35 weeks but I did not start feeling her move until about 21 weeks. I was so impatient and worried. Don't worry it just takes time!

Is this your first pregnancy? I know it usally takes longer with the first one or if your placenta is in frount. This one is number #5 and ive been feeling movements for 2 weeks every now and then..usally when im sitting still. Feels like a little fishy in there.

Thank you so much for your positive feedbacks, i had a check today i see my OB. Baby was doing great, moving all the time.
Doctor said its too early to feel the movements yet.

I didn't feel my baby start kicking till recently and I'm 22 weeks. Usually you don't feel anything till your 20 weeks or so, so just wait and you will feel some movement.

It does take time. A lot of times you just feel the flutters of their bodies that early. They dont really get the hang on moving and giving good kicks until around 20 weeks.

I am 21 weeks and feel her perfectly fine.. you have to be patient. Sometimes it takes a while. I first felt her at 16 weeks and now I can feel her move. Sometimes you cannot feel the baby until a little later. No worries Mommy you'll be feeling good Abby in no time
