I am now 26 weeks and i have been able to see my bump jiggle when the baby moves.

Does 26 weeks seem early to see it move? I am not skinny by means, i am a fatty.

I have been getting some pain just above my pubic bone- i assume this is stretching etc.

When did you see your bump move?

Last night we saw it move for the first time - 22 weeks. I laughed so much I gave myself a painful stitch.

It was about 24 weeks for me.

I've had a few niggly pains that I put down to stretching too, but I guess if you're ever concerned your midwife can put your mind at ease with a quick call.

21-22ish here.
Think it was about 24 last time.
At 27, I am seeing obvious limbs and windscreen wiper-esque movements across my whole bump :/

I'm a fatty and I saw and felt mine from the outside at 26 weeks :)

I first noticed mine at 25 weeks. It is really hilarious looking for some reason! It makes me laugh still, especially now the baby seems to make my whole belly shift. Grin

About a week ago; 22 weeks. Just little jiggles but definitely there.

I'm on the chubby side to stay with so was surprised when I felt movement around 19/20w and saw it clearly at 22w. Now 26+3 and baby is doing gymnastics tonight! Grin

Its crazy isnt it! I was worried that my baby would come out with bulging biceps after managing to wibble my fat!

I have felt kicks since about 15 weeks, and visibly seen them since maybe 20/21. This is far far earlier than in my first pregnancy when I don't think I felt movement until at least 22 weeks. I have an anterior placenta so was prepared for it to be much later. I keep thinking the little lady must be huge if she can boot me through my placenta so early on, eek!
