Not long found out im pregnant with Baby #1 after a previous miscarriage and trouble ttc just wondering when everyone first felt movements and if anyone had and funny stories about their reactions at the time obviously im not going to feel anything any time soon! But its definitely one of the things im most looking forward to

I'm pregnant with #1 and first felt movement at 21wks. I have a large fibroid and partly anterior placenta, don't know if that affected anything.

Just before 20 weeks I think and it woke me up. I thought it was a dream but as I drifted back off, I got a solid boot in the ribs. Oh there's nothing like that feeling!

DC1 around 14 weeks (like bubbles popping on the inside).
DC2 not until around 18 weeks (due to anterior placenta).

I'm 29 weeks with my first. I felt movements at 15 weeks and DH felt a kick at 19 weeks. It didn't properly start ramping up until 19 weeks though.
