This has probably been done before but...

I'm 14 weeks pg with my second and I think I may be going mad but I think I've felt movement. Surely that's way too early. I felt it at 17 weeks with ds1 but I'm thinking this is so early it must be me going mad/wind!!!!

I'm pregnant with my first (29+3) and I'm sure I felt baby first kick at 14 weeks! Everyone told me it was wind, but I don't think it was. But then it didn't kick again until 19 weeks (and hasn't stopped since), so perhaps it was wishful thinking on my part :)

sharond101 · 24/02/2012 18:56

around 18 weeks for me

Methe · 24/02/2012 18:59

18w with number 1 14w with number 2

I'm 11w now and can't wait!

I'm pregnant with my first and I'm pretty sure I felt the smallest flutter at 14w during the relaxation section of my yoga class.

About 19 weeks for me

Pregnant with 3rd 17wks weeks and felt baby about 13weeks mentioned this 2 midwife and doc both said sounds like baby movements and I'm still feeling the same now :) but a bit stronger

Expecting my first baby and I felt him move at 15 weeks, felt him regularly ever since it has just got stronger and stronger. Now 24 weeks and get lots of kicks. I think it depends where your placenta is, mine is at the top at the back so it made it easier to feel him earlier.

18 weeks.... which is this week, only started feeling Herm yesterday

puzzletree · 24/02/2012 22:20

17 weeks with first, 15 weeks with second, 18 weeks before I felt really obvious movements with third and still not very frequent/strong at 21 weeks (anterior placenta!)

Spiritedwolf · 24/02/2012 23:37

I'm 18wks+3 with my first. I started feeling something at about 15/16 weeks, and now regularly feel something when the rest of my body is still (when I just wake up or lie down to nap/sleep).

I think the something is probably the baby moving now but at first I just thought it was my insides being shoved about to make room for baby/expanding uterus.

I'm also getting pains occasionally at the bottom of my ribs, which I take it is some part of me or baby pushing against them.

That said, I'm not getting any strong, distinct movements that I feel and think 'thats definately baby moving about there' and nothing that I can feel with my/partner's hand from the outside. Hopefully that will happen soon!

Bibbo · 25/02/2012 07:32

14wks with 1st, 11wks with 2nd. but I spent most of my day obsessively tuning into my internals to work out what was baby and what was farts brewing ;)

DizzyKipper · 25/02/2012 07:41

McPhee · 25/02/2012 07:43

First flutterings at 16 weeks, now I'm 21 weeks and housing a footballer.

joosiewoosie · 25/02/2012 08:04

Not yet...am 20w6d and have anterior placenta...booo! Looking forward to it!

MrsLister · 25/02/2012 08:38

I'm pretty sure I've been feeling something for the past week or so - I'm 13+2!

Seems to be stronger after I've eaten though so could be my food digesting ;)

no1childminder · 26/02/2012 20:43

PG with my 2nd, had MMC at 7wks with 1st which was found at 12wk scan. i felt small kicks from 18wks, am now 20. felt like bubbles popping at first, but feel like kicks now. DP has only had the advantage of feeling it twice. im feeling roughly 8-10 a day now :)
