when did baby start really moving

I'm 19 weeks pregnant  today with a baby boy..This is my third pregnancy.  I don't feel him moving and I cannot remember  when I felt my other two move  . Is anyone else going through this too  ? Or when did you feel your baby move on a more consistent basis?

I felt my baby for the first time @ 11 almost 12 weeks. This is my second baby. But sometimes my baby is really really active & @ other times not so much. Just depends on how he/she is feeling I guess

I am 20 weeks 5 days and feel flutters but no kicks. I was told at my scan today that the placenta grew between my skin and the baby (anterior placenta), instead of on the other side, so it will be another month before she will will be able to "punch through" the placenta for me to feel her. But she was sure trying during the scan today!

I'm 19 weeks 5 days and my baby girl is moving constantly it seems. She started moving more around the beginning of 18 weeks. I would feel her about a few times a day. Now I can't keep count. I first started feeling her around 14 or 15 weeks.

I'm 18 weeks and I feel baby kick and move around from time to time, mainly at night when I'm relaxed. I've been feeling them for sure for about 2 maybe 3 weeks. I'm also very very thin so its no surprise I feel a lot. Hopefully I can gain some weight soon! Lol.

This is also my 3rd pregnancy and I'm having a boy. I have 2 girl's now the oldest is 9 and the youngest is 8. I started feeling flutters around 14wks but only every couple of days. I haven't felt any kicks yet and I as well have been very concerned but when I go to the doctor he is growing and non stop moving. I think maybe cuz it's been so long since I was last pregnant my body is in shock mode lol but I can't wait to feel those little kicks ☺

They say a first time mom can take up too 20 to 24 weeks to feel it but if this isn't your first some feel as soon as 14w. I'm a third time mom and 18w and still don't feel any movement. It's kinda freaking me out and I've tried to really focus to feel it and nothing. But had an appointment Monday and everything was good and heart was beating baby growing. Idk maybe this one isn't active because I felt my other two around 16w.
