Just last night for the first time! He was rubbing vitamin e oil on my stomach and he got done and put one hand on the top of my stomach and one on the bottom and then the baby kicked his hand and he saw my stomach move?his face went like WTF? And I said did you just feel him kick and he was like yea! Then he tried to get him to kick again but he didn?t want to?lol?
21w3d is wheni felt her for the first time. i am heavier so im aswsuming thats why.. and i missed the "flutters"stage and went right to kicks! he felt it that same night, to verify i wasnt crazy- of course haha. and now every day she kicks all day- shes on a schedule it seems, cause now after i eat dinner and settle for the night, i dont feel her. and not really when i sleep. but as SOON as i wake up there she is .. so im guessing she sleeps when i do yay:) haha
There were a few kicks between 20 & 23 weeks that I know he could have felt if he had had his hand on my belly at the time. Then my Mom felt one at 23 weeks and DH felt her (finally!) at 24. Now she's so active he feels and sees her all the time!
I feel like I'm lightyears away from feeling anything, but the nurse at my school (who worked at my OB's office until this year) said that when I do start to feel it from the outside, the best way for DH to feel is to lay behind him in bed (sort of spooning?) with my stomach to his back. She said he can feel it better that way than with his hand. I thought that was a neat idea- it makes sense- the more skin-on-skin, the more he could feel.

Nothing yet...I'm 18 weeks tomorrow. I think I have felt some flutters, but nothing that I can definitively that it was the baby. I'm anxious to feel him or her
