I know I have a while before I feel anything but I'm just wondering when it starts. It is probably different from person to person. It was so weird to see the baby moving last week at my NT scan and not feel it at all. You'd think if something was alive and moving inside you you could feel it. Crazy. I'm so exited to feel him/her kicking.
You are right, it is different for everyone. If you have an anterior placenta it might be a really long time, but I started to feel her around 17/18 weeks or so, but not consistently until 20 weeks.
Definitely different woman to woman. I swear I have felt our LO. Obviously, not kicking or anything, but as if s/he's swimming around in there and collided with a wall. It was unlike anything I've ever felt before. It wasn't hugely noticeable,but it was definitely different than anything else. It comes few and far between, but when it does....It's incredible!!
I just started feeling her yesterday. My doctor told me I had an anterior placenta though so that had alot to do with why it took so long to feel her. Now it seems like I feel her all the time, it's exciting. Be patient it will happen.
Started feeling movement around 18 weeks. Became an everyday occurance around 20 weeks. Now at 23 weeks, I feel it several times a day & it's alot stronger.
I have an anterior placenta and I started feeling little somethings at around 20-21 weeks, but it hasn't become consistent yet. I'm hoping that she will pick up soon! It's so cool!!
I felt her at 15 weeks and a few days...then nothing for about two weeks then I felt her again maybe once or twice between 17-19. Off and on for a few more weeks then at 24 weeks I felt her alll the time!!!! She is now moving like crazy at 25 weeks
i started feeling a strange sensation in my stomach about a week or two ago and the doctor said it was the baby... not big kicks or anything, but just like something is moving or swimming around in there. I can't wait for the big movements tho!!

i started feeling movement at 17.5 weeks. daily/regular movement began at 19 weeks, and im not a 'skinny' person. many of my more slender friends didnt feel movement til 20 weeks though, so i guess it all depends. i havent felt what i could describe as solid kicks yet (im 21.5 weeks), but i feel her moving all the time all day long! i love it...so far anyway
Re: When did you first feel movement??

I started feeling her around 16weeks.

I still haven't felt anything yet. I think the baby is lazy, just like DH.
