Has anyone ever felt a first baby move as early as 15/16 weeks?

I'm 15+4 today with my first baby. I know that it's still so early (especially for a first pregnancy) but for the last few days I've had fluttering/bubbly/movement feelings 1-2 times per day. The first day I assumed it must be gas or something (although it's different from any sensation I've ever had) but now it's so consistent I'm really questioning whether I'm feeling the baby move! I told my MIL who laughed it off and said there's no way I'm feeling the baby this early (made me feel a bit stupid tbh, but maybe she's right!) I'm showing a LOT considering I'm so early on - I'm quite slim and even in clothes I have a clear, unmistakable bump I can't hide.

Yes I did at 15 weeks. Felt like really tiny bubbles.

Just to update, I'm now 20+3 and those early feelings I had were definitely movements! They've now developed into proper kicks! And I now know I have an anterior placenta so who'd have thought? Must be a strong little one 💪

Yeah I did, just over 16 weeks and first baby! Little pops nearly like wind!
