i remember dp feeling ds1 when i was about 17/18 weeks pg, which was when i first started feeling proper kicks

can't really remember with the other 2. perhaps he can feel her, but just isn't totally sure that's what it is??

I am 26 weeks today and my DH could only feel it for the last 10 days or so. I am size 12 on the skinny size (since you mention size) so not sure if that makes a difference.

it was about 10 days ago that I realised the twitching was visible as I went to the beautician for the waxing and we were both marvelling at the bump twitching. Brilliant.

You'll get there, one thing I have learned from here is that everyone is different.

ooh actually one thing that might be making the difference, if baby is OP at the moment (ie, facing towards your back) will mean that you can feel a lot inside, but you may be able to feel less on the surface
