Early movements

When did people feel their baby move for the first time.

I am 17 weeks preg and can feel it move occasionally. No proper kicks yet. Still like bubbles and swishy movements. Sometimes it can move constantly for about 2 hours and then nothing for a day which scares me.
Do they have sleep patterns this early?

yes i felt my 2nd preg early like that. Think it makes you more worried when you feel them sometimes but not all the time - whereas if you hadn't felt them move til much later you'd be none the wiser!!
Mine was fine bTW but i did worry.

absolutely, and they also face towards your back, so you don;t feel those kicks, the baby is still small at this point and has loads of room, so won;t always be bouncing off your uterus walls or bladder...also, depending on where your placenta is, your experience of movements is different, an anterior placenta can muffle some movements...don;t worry ! x
