When were your first movements/kicks etc?!

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

At about 15 weeks with my current pregnancy (no 2). WIth my first it was later - more like 18-19 weeks before I could categorically say it was baby and not wind! :o

Oh I see I can't wait to feel a kick, as long as the baby doesn't beat me up!

yes seems to get earlier in subsequent pg im 20+4 with dc4 and could feel flutterings before 15w!

18 weeks with first, 20 weeks with 2nd, nothing yet with this one but only 10 weeks, so a bit too early.

speffles · 02/03/2011 13:13

About 17/18 weeks for me. Although a few of the bigger ones were probably wind if i'm honest with myself.

16+6 was the first time I was absolutely sure I'd felt something, but had a few possibles before that. DH first felt a kick at 18+6.

18-19 weeks

minibmw2010 · 02/03/2011 14:57

I didn't really feel any definite kicks until 22/23 weeks though I could feel tummy flutters from about 19 weeks onwards.

I've started to feel slight tummy flutters but nothing big... suppose I will in the next few weeks?

16 weeks(a popping sensation)with 1st baby. Then very regular movements from around 18 weeks...Good luck!

At first it's lovely to feel them fluttering away, by 32 weeks you'd wish they'd calm down...my ribs are agony..

tel1 · 02/03/2011 17:17

20 to 23 with 1st, earlier 16-18 with 2nd though he was big, and nothing much so far with this one now 18 wkes. Although that is my scan dates (my true dates I would be 16 wkes) so I'm hoping its that.... can't wait for the reassurance !

PrincessScrumpy · 02/03/2011 17:25

With dd it was about 16 weeks but this pg, I'm sure I have had flutters. Happens at night just before we go to sleep - I'm only 10w but it's twins so maybe it makes a difference. I can feel them in 2 places so I'm sure it's them bouncing. Might be wishful thinking.

Danilou22 · 02/03/2011 19:30

The flutters turned into real kicks when I was about 20 weeks. Am now 24 weeks and my partner felt the baby kick tonight for the first time

Ahh :) Bet it's a wonderful feeling when your partner is with you feeling it too!

theonlyhb2 · 02/03/2011 22:29
