Where do you feel early baby movements

I'm 19 weeks, first baby. I've been feeling these odd sensations for a while. Not like flutters or bubbles like other people describe, but more like little pulses.. I'm convinced it's baby moving but I'm just not sure. I feel all this stuff really low down, around where you would get period pain. I was expecting that you'd feel baby movements in they middle of your bump but is that not right?

I can't tell if I'm confusing digestive stuff with baby movements because I'm just desperate to feel them move!

Pregnant with #3 and my flutters are all on the right side. Definitely 'flutters' though, I don't think I've ever had pulses. It doesn't mean it's not the baby though!

I felt movements low down, around where I get period pain. Felt like little taps from the inside at first.

For me it was like little feathers inside, very low down.

I got little taps, low down at the sides.
I suppose you could describe them as pulses. Later, it became obvious that it was actually chronic hiccups (the baby's, not mine).

I've got a scan in two weeks. I'm so hoping that I can feel what I think is the movement and be able to match it to movement in the screen so I know for sure!

Hi @LavenderSweetPea
I'm 18 wks and also feel like a pulse where i would get period cramps, i don't feel a kick, kind of feels like baby is rolling around!

@Summer2424 that's interesting your having something similar too. How often do you feel it? I'm getting it multiple times a day pretty much every day which is also what makes me question it because I thought at this stage movements kind of came and went

Hiya

I had this with my first pregnancy and was unsure to but defo was baby!🥰
I’m also pregnant with my second and exact same feeling ❤️

My youngest is now 12 so a long time ago for me but I remember the early movements feeling very much like a muscle twitch and very low down. Much lower than I thought it would be so it sounds right to me that what your feeling is baby!!
