Is it ridiculous to think I can feel baby movements at 16 weeks?

I've been feeling popping bubbles over my lower abdomen all day. It can't be just wind, can it? I know it's normal to feel earlier with your second (felt DS move at about 20 weeks), but am I kidding myself? MW appt tomorrow so will ask.

Not ridiculous, I felt DS2 much earlier than DS1, at 14 and a bit weeks.

Not ridiculous :)

I felt DS1 about 18weeks, DS2 about 15ish, this one from 12.5, i love it :)

I felt DS (my first) around about then - but only if I lay perfectly still and relaxed. So yes, possible!

well, I've been passing off bubbles over the last week as wind (and goodness know I have plenty of that) but it just seems too insistent now!

I felt my first at 17 weeks so yes probably normal!

Yes! I felt DD at 16 weeks, I was lying still in bed having just drank a cold can of Pepsi. She was not amused!

I was feeling flutters at 14 weeks this time. First time with DS is was 16 weeks so not ridiculous at all. [hsmile]

Thank you! [hgrin]
