My OB has me worried because I should "definitely be feeling baby move a lot" I'm 21.4 weeks and I'm still just feeling flutters... I think... And it's only when I'm laying down at night and I'm trying to feel her :(

Don't be super worried. If you're placenta is in front of the baby you won't feel a lot of movement throughout your pregnancy. I don't remember what the scientific name is, but my brothers Gf had it.
If movements decrease later in your pregnancy that is reason to go in and get checked out.

Especially with this being your first baby. You should start to feel more movements in the next few weeks. Try not to stress out.
Drink plenty of water and rest. If that's when you feel the baby, do it more often so you don't worry as much.

I agree ^^ my placenta was in front. I felt a lot of flutters for a long time. Around 23 weeks I started feeling real strong kicks. Didn’t feel him actually go crazy crazy until towards the end when he ran out of room. I felt kicks still though. And ya being ur first baby I always hear u feel it later on. Don’t worry!

I used to bring it up to my doctor and she said they don’t really start counting the movements until later on in the 20’s weeks. Then you’ll need to feel 10 movements every 2 hours but you’re too soon for all that! I bet baby is fine :)

My OB should chose her wording better then 😂
