Fetal Movement

When do you usually start counting kicks and paying attention to fetal movement? I know the movements are irregular when you're not that far along because the baby is still little but I'm 23w4d with my 2nd daughter and i havent felt her move since last night and i just feel really fatigued and havent been hungry today. Probably just a growth spurt but i still get nervous.

I wouldn't start counting kicks until way later. I'm 29 weeks and even now she goes a couple days with very limited movement. It freaks me out but when she finally wakes up I feel a lot better. I don't really count kicks unless I'm feeling worried then I will count just to make sure she kicks at least 10 times in her most awakened hour.
