What does it feel like

I know this has been done to death but help me work out if this is baby moving?

It feels like sort of vibrating sensation that only happens when I'm lying still. I'm 18+1 if that helps.

I have been lying on the sofa playing music on my phone, resting it on my belly and the feeling started again.

Everyone says its like pops, but I don't think this is pops, more of a constant feeling.

Oh, forgot to mention it is really low down. Just above my knicker line.

Could be! Grin

Yup sounds like bub to me. Really low down is where you will feel baby at this point.

Exciting! Congratulations!

I just felt what I probably could describe as popping...maybe....Grin

its all very exciting.

entertaining myself by putting my phone on my belly and the feeling ramps up and then take it off and it calms down Grin

At least another 10 weeks before I get to feel this again! Sad

BumbleBeesGoBuzz · 19/07/2013 20:34

Sad poor saggy but just think how magical it will be when you do feel it Smile

I have the constant heartbeat movement too..it's your pulse!

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 19/07/2013 20:51

Indeed! Ive got a long way to go yet though. Each day lasts a week!

BumbleBeesGoBuzz · 19/07/2013 21:08

my pulse is making my belly move. how weird Confused is it supposed to do that?

ah yeah I remember the early days where a day lasted a week. I'm only 18 weeks now but it seems 5 minutes since the 12 week scan.

I could feel/see my pulse in the early weeks I guess its the umbilical cord etc growing, the bb felt (not suprisngly) like I was being flicked from inside (like you flick the top of someones ear - if you're being a bit mean).

sazzle82 · 19/07/2013 21:31

That's exactly how I would describe it Purple, like being flicked from the inside. That and little pops like bubbles going off inside x

TheStitchWitch · 19/07/2013 21:36

When I described the feeling to DH I said it felt like when you get a twitch in your eyelid Grin

BumbleBeesGoBuzz · 19/07/2013 22:28

I want bubbles :( I guess they'll be along soon and I'll be moaning because baby is keeping me up or kicking my bladder haha Grin

Aw lush ! I miss those first flutters Grin munch is two and a half weeks old now !! To me it was sort of a vibration or a buzzing ... A bit like how a bumblebee in a jar might feel inside you ... If that makes sense Smile

TobyLerone · 20/07/2013 08:24

Saggy, are you pregnant? Congratulations! Flowers

I'm 16 weeks and I'm sure I felt something yesterday. It's been over 12 years since I had a baby, so I've forgotten all I ever knew.

BumbleBeesGoBuzz · 20/07/2013 09:52

that's exactly what it felt like. I little bee Smile

That's how it felt for me, now at my due date & had a knee sticking out the side last night, make the most of enjoying it, watching & feeling my belly move is the one thing I'll miss the most when my baby arrives!
