Feeling Fetal Movement at 16 Weeks: What to Expect

Yes, it is common to feel the baby at 16 weeks of gestation, especially for women who have been pregnant before. At this stage of the pregnancy, the fetus is about 4.5 inches long and weighs about 3.5 ounces. It is starting to move around actively, and its movements can often be felt by the mother. However, it is important to note that every woman's experience of pregnancy is different, and some women may not feel the baby move until later in the pregnancy. If you are concerned that you are not feeling the baby move, it is important to talk to your healthcare provider.
