Morning all.
I am 13 weeks pregnant - for the second time - (ds is nearly 3) and I am sure I felt the baby moving the other evening. I was lying on the sofa, having just had dinner and was drinking a cup of camomile tea (ommm) when I am sure I felt him/her wriggling around. Could this be possible this early?
Has anyone else felt their baby moving at this early stage? I thought you normally didn't feel anything until about 16-20 weeks. I'd love to hear your experiences!

I felt ds1 at 17 weeks and am certain (am also 13 weeks) that I feel the odd little wriggle too.

Some people will poo-poo it but you know whether or not you've felt it before! Its more subtle than a wriggle obviously but I know what I'm feeling!

Can't wait for the lying in the bath and seeing my whole tum move stage!! Love it.

Yep I definitely felt dd (2nd baby) at 11 weeks. Yay!

definitely, the whole 'you can't feel anything until 16 weeks' is just to stop people who don't from panicking. i know i was feeling dd1 as she was jumping around like a mad thing during her 12 week scan and had been feeling the same for a few days prior and blaming it on trapped wind.

DD2 was kicking vigorously at 14 weeks, I could feel the distinct "ping-ping" and knew it wasn't wind!!!
