Hey mammas

Interested when you all felt your first baby kicks? :)

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

16 weeks with all of them! Felt like wind.

About 19 weeks, I think. I had an anterior placenta and I was already quite chubby!

1st baby about 20 weeks
2nd baby I def felt flutters like butterfly wings from about 13 weeks ago

1st baby around 19-20 weeks
2nd baby I swear I’ve felt flutters since 11 weeks

1st baby 22/23 weeks (anterior placenta)
2nd baby 20 weeks (posterior placenta)

Anything between 16 and 24 weeks is considered normal.

I was 19 weeks, it felt like someone had poked me from the inside out. 🥰

1st- 22/23 weeks (anterior placenta)- did feel odd bubbles at 19 weeks. I remember going to the 20 week scan and seeing the kicking on the screen and couldn’t feel any of it.

2nd- 18 weeks (posterior placenta)- I felt the odd bubble at 17 weeks.

Anterior placenta, about 18 weeks. Took me a while to really decide it was kicking because it didn't feel like fluttering (it still doesn't!). For me, it feels more like a twitch - a bit like when your eye is tired and twitches. 😊

19 weeks, posterior placenta. It felt like little flicks from the inside 😊

17 weeks with first - felt like a butterfly opening its wings it was so weird.

Second was 13/14 weeks and felt like bubbles popping but then placenta moved to front a few weeks later and didnt feel anything until 25 weeks.

About 18 weeks for sure. I did feel tiny flutters for a week or 2 earlier but I couldn't be 100% sure what it was until it got stronger. First baby so didn't know what it should feel like.

Around 16 weeks felt flutters. 19 weeks I’d say proper kicks! X

I was around 18-19 weeks when I first felt her. Like tiny little bubbles and butterflies - it was amazing feeling that for the first time!
