Hi all

This is going to sound silly but i am 19 weeks tomorrow, since 17 wks ive been feeling like twiches in my lower tummy thought it was baby been so exited about it, also felt it from outside.. but as of late ive been having twiches in my leg and arm like a trapped nerve, is that all it was but in my tummy? I feel so disheartened now, all this time I was sure it was baby .. it wasnt wind isnt a sensation i have felt before felt like your tounge poking inside of cheek gently

Im so confused first sucessfull pregnancy for me

Thank you x

Hi! I'm 21 weeks and have been feeling movement for the last month or so... for the first couple of weeks I would've described it as what a muscle twitch feels like so it likely is the baby you're feeling :) you'll soon know!! X

@Iamthecrazycatlady I don't think it's the baby kicking as it's a little too early to feel it so vividly on the outside... I'm getting kicks on the inside at nearly 20w but nothing on the outside yet.
I reckon your baby is getting themselves into different positions and sleeping on a nerve of yours!! Maybe that's why you're experiencing nerve pains elsewhere in your body?!

@Iamthecrazycatlady I would say that IS baby!!
That was my very first movement at 19 weeks, and i would describe it to people as like a muscle twitch, it just got more often and then stronger. Dont doubt yourself! It probably is baby having a good kick around!

Yep the first movements I felt were exactly like muscle twitches around 18 weeks!
