Bit of a daft question, I know, since only I know what I'm feeling, but I'm sure I can feel fluttering-type movements in my left side/front - where my small bump is most obvious (by that I mean I can feel it- I don't have a bump on my side!).

I thought I was 15/16 weeks along but my dating scan put me back by 2, meaning the mw thinks im only just 14 weeks.

I'm having another scan on Wednesday to get an accurate due date, but has anyone else felt their baby from 14 weeks (ish)?

yes I did although im sure someone will be along in a moment to tell you its impossible at that stage.

Is it your first pregnancy? Everyone is different so it may be. Personally I think I was about 20 weeks with my first and 16 weeks with my second before I felt any movement.

Sorry, should have said that it's my second. With my first it was later - 16/17 weeks but not so far away from where I think I am!

I was prepared for someone to tell me it was wind Grin

You're more likely to feel movements earlier in second and subsequent pregnancies, so yes, it could be your little one fluttering away! Exciting!

Well im almost certain ive felt my baby since last week and im fifteen weeks this week. This is dc3, wasnt as early with first two but i had anterior low placenta with dc2. So im sure it prob is your baby :-)

I felt my second move at 14 weeks - I couldn't believe it. I used to scoff at people who said they could feel the baby this early and would tell them it was wind! Blush

Its reassuring - for some inexplicable reason ive become a ne'er sayer of doom - im refusing to let myself get too excited. Completely irrational but I'm so much more aware of what can go wrong this time around.

Silly
