Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion the fetal movements are felt around 20 weeks or 5 months in case of first pregnancy or around 18 weeks in case of furthur pregnancies.The pulsations might be due to increased blood flow in uterine vessels.But usually the movements are felt .It might not be abnormal.So dont worry.As it is first pregnancy it takes time to recognize the fetal movements.Its quite natural.So relax.
Best regards...Dr.Srilatha
