Movement at 10 weeks, am I crazy?!

Just as the title really. We told family this weekend and so I spent Monday panicking that something would go wrong and I would let everyone down. Laid down in bed last night on my right hand side and felt three very clear vibrations, like bubbles with a 'pop' just inside my left hip. I'm sure it was baby trying to reassure me all is well, have never felt anything like it before and instinct told me it was baby. But having googled today it sounds like this is highly unlikely :-( Anyone else had anything similar?

My early movement popping bubbles this time were early on, about 11-weeks but this is my third an he's right up front as the placenta is at the back, but I have heard of ladies (mostly on here) having little bubbles early on, granted a lot of them turned out to be carrying twins lol x

Oooh so the popping thing sounds like it could be baby?!! Luckily already had early scan and no twins, DH had them in his family! glad it sounds like I'm not losing the plot, at least not yet!!

No your not, I have been having flutters and I'm only 8 weeks with dc #3. I thought I was going crazy until I googled it and it turns out its more common than first thought Smile

I felt that fluttering when 11 weeks. It's my second pregnancy and so I recognise it well. I know an awful lot of literature suggests you don't feel anything until much later but it simply isn't true. Least not for everyone!

Me too- I could feel baby from 9 weeks I'm sure. And for my first it was 22 weeks so I'm sure it isn't just what I think I 'should' if that makes sense!

Not crazy at all although plenty people will tell you you are imagining/lying ;)

felt this one at around the same time, was (TMI!!) hunched over the toilet trying to empty my bladder a bit better by rocking (sick of umpteen trips to the loo overnight!) and felt a distinct movement.

Definitely believe that you can get pregnancy-related sensations this early, even if it may not actually be the baby kicking - the reason that the medical literature will tell you that the cause is not actually the baby itself is because at 10 weeks he/she weighs 3-4g (0.1-.14 oz) and also hasn't developed muscles to move around and make an impact. But it's lovely to feel the changes in the body with pregnancy, and so exciting when the first serious flutters start soon!

Oooh sunny it's interesting you say that as when I had an early scan at 8+5 baby was wriggling about. Plus it looked quite well developed. I'm starting to wonder if they measured wrong or something as we had thought I was 2 weeks further along prior to the scan. Hmmm.

I am so glad I read this I am 10 weeks was convinvinced I felt it move the other day defo no twins had 4 scans already that was on right side too I have only felt it the once xx

Longfufu · 28/03/2013 07:52

Yes you prob are feeling the baby, however, don't feel alarmed if you stop feeling movement. I felt baby very early around 8/9 weeks, then nothing till I was around 20 weeks.

TeWiSavesTheDay · 28/03/2013 07:57

I get this, but I don't think it's baby yet, it's your insides moving around to make space for the baby! I feel similar flutters sometimes when I'm not pregnant, so...

glossyflower · 28/03/2013 08:03

Don't let people tell you otherwise. I felt exactly the same at 9 weeks, and it was always in the same place lower left side.
When I had my scan that was exactly where the placenta and baby was.
Whether its the actual baby or placenta developing I don't know but it's definitely what you are feeling.

LandsN · 29/03/2013 07:29

Felt it again and I think it is without a doubt the baby wicked feeling x
