this is my 2nd but massive gap between them, just wondered when to expect feeling those first flutters?

I was 15 weeks, but I used to lie on my tummy on the floor to feel it. It was more 18-20 weeks when I was able to feel movements when just sitting or standing.

just over 16 weeks with my first. i am currently 12 weeks and keep wondering if i am feeling baby movement or just super-sensitive to general fluid/wind movement. i do expect to feel this one earlier but i am thinking realistically it will be 14/15 weeks

my dd is 13 weeks and she says she gets flutters

17 weeks. I remember exactly as I'd asked my sister the same question and she couldn't remember. I thought, how odd? Surely you'd know something like that??? As time has gone on I realise that that sort of information does fade over time Grin

About 20/21 weeks (first pregnancy).

The night after my twenty week scan but it was about two weeks after that before i really felt proper movements. He is my first and by the end of the pregnancy he was kicking me like a goalkeeper kicks a ball all the way to the other end of the pitch! Constantly. Mum said i was the same but my sister hardly ever moved at all. She is rather lazy though!
