when did you first feel baby?

[chan95]

hey ladies, was just curious when was the first time you felt baby move in first pregnancy

1st baby, rumblings week before, but definite movement the day after the 20w scan (at about 19.5w).

It felt like a fart bubble, only inside. Most odd. Think it was just before 20 week scan.

About 18 weeks with DD but v v occasionally as early as 13weeks with DS-I remember being at a theatre in front row of "gods" so had to lean forward to see as seat was far back from rail. It must have been the cramped position and the fact that I knew what that dull "bubbles of oil popping on the inside of my abdomen"sensation was this time!

I've felt flutters from 14w, led on my tummy yesterday and definitely got a stronger movement now 17w - second baby.

Don't think I felt DS until after 20 weeks scan

Flutters at about 16 weeks, progressed to the occasional kick at about 17 weeks...more regular jabs from inside and outside now at 19+2 (strongest when lying on my back). Dh felt the baby kick for the first time at about 18+5 .

Felt her at 14 weeks - little tiny sensations like popcorn popping from the inside of my belly. Got steadily stronger and more obviously from then onwards.

13 wks...started off lil flutters and like tiny lil popping sensations jus below bikini line then as the weeks went by got stronger and more prominent :) now i get elbows and legs stikin out here nd there hehe :D x

17 weeks but I didn't know what it was until about 19 weeks.

About 17 weeks. Was surrounded by people pulling a face saying I should have felt stuff by 12 but the books and MW/Docs say usually it's 16-22 weeks, not to worry till after 24 if you haven't felt anything.

First- fluttering around 15 weeks. And kicks at 19 weeks
Second- at 10 weeks (during scan ) but they slowed down and started again at 15 weeks and kicks at 17 weeks..

Actually I just asked my husband to give me a neck massage and wanted to lie down on my bump, no way baby just started to kick around, so had to sit upright..

around 22 weeks before that nothing

Felt some butterflies at about 17-18 weeks but nothing definite until 23-24 weeks.
Anterior placenta for me though so didnt feel too much movement really.

Reassuring to read that late is ok. I'm 19 weeks and nothing (first baby) was beginning to worry.

20+5 - little madam took her time to make her presence felt and I was beside myself! I have an anterior placenta though, and that can mean it takes longer to feel movements - do you?

18 weeks, and it was a definite kick. A magic moment!

22 weeks here! Boxing Day morning last year.

15+5 here and have felt little flutters for the past 3 days. can't quite believe I am feeling them this early but its quite a distinctive feeling and it tickles...makes me smile every time

24 weeks with dc1, I has very strong stomach muscles back then and apparently that means you feel them later, by dc2 my stomach muscles were shot to shit already so it was about 17 weeks, lol

it came on slowly like rumbling from about 18 weeks, full on kicks from about 20. dont find it a bit magic at all though, just weird!!!!!!

20 weeks exactly with anterior placenta

23/24 weeks with first baby - had anterior placenta so movements somewhat cushioned, and was slightly overweight

now 15wks with DC2 and I think I've felt the first couple of flutters last week or so. However, placenta anterior again and a LOT MORE overweight this time, so who knows?? ;)

21+6. Anterior placenta. First baby. Fairly fit - did a lot of exercise pre-pregnancy. Normal weight for height - about size 12.
