Kicks

Was wondering when I should start to worry & tlk to my doctor about not feeling kicks!!?? I am a first time mommy 21 weeks & yes I feel the flutters & I do love it when I feel them I love feeling my son move it puts a smile on my face & it makes my boyfriend get all happy when I tell him his son is moving. I know lots of women feel kicks around this time some even feel them at 18 weeks. Might sound crazy but I really want to feel my son kick me. Is there anything I can do? Is there anything I should be worried about? Thank u mommies

The flutters *are* the kicks.  As your baby and uterus get bigger they will feel stronger and stronger.  Don't worry, everything's fine.

Drink orange juice and lay down on your side that should help. Or eat something with sugar.  I don't think I felt my son  kicking until I was more in the 20 weeks.
