Is it okay to be 17 weeks and 2 days and youve only felt your baby move 2 times since youve been pregnant? Is it normal for first time moms?

I think some babies just dont move as much as others and some women feel it at different times. Im 17 weeks and 1 day and I started feeling my baby since 14 weeks. I wouldnt feel her everyday but every once in a while. Now im feeling her more often. But eventually we will all get the kicks in the ribs. Lol. Im a ftm too but this is what other experienced moms have told me.

I personally have only felt my baby twice since yesterday, and yesterday was the first time I felt him. Im a first time mom so Im not too sure, but I also had an appointment on Friday and everything was great with him.
