Movement

SheenahTonga · May 2013

I am almost 14 weeks and wondering when first time moms felt baby movement?!? I'm really lookin forward to it as I think it'll ease my nerves!

I first felt movement that was unmistakably the baby around 15/16 weeks. It felt like someone was flicking me from the inside. Not at all like bubbles or flutters, though I know that's how some people describe it what it feels like for them ... to me that just describes how I feel about gas, lol!

The wait is so tough, but just you wait, it will be worth it. Good luck!

I am FTM, with anterior placenta so I felt the movements later then most. I am 23 weeks today and only have been feeling her consistently (pops and flutters) for the past week and a half. So around 21.5 weeks is when it started. Haven't felt an actual kick yet.

I for sure knew I was feeling him at 18 weeks, but I think I was feeling him for a week or so before that. I just didn't know what I was feeling!

I'm a FTM and just felt my LO for the first time at 17w5d. It felt like a strong kick, but ever since then I've only felt flutters.

I'm 17 weeks and 3 days I first started feeling the little bump bump feelings about a week ago : the other day I felt I real big good one it was amazing and then haven't felt it again: everyone is different and our babies will give you that wonderful moment when they are ready! Congrats;

Only feet one or two flutters at 18 weeks. More consistent movement 20, and actual kicks at 22.

Happy_Yahoo_Personaler:
FTM carrying twins. For me, movement became unmistakable at 20 weeks. It felt like tiny muscle spasms. I never felt "bubble" or "goldfish plops" or "butterflies."
I was told by my OB that most FTMs feel movement between 16-20 weeks, but closer to the 18-20 week range.

Thank you for this!! I always wonder how it differs for mom with twins - but have yet to ask

Anterior placenta....so not until like 20 weeks...maye even 21 weeks...still don't feel a lot!

Around 17 or 18 weeks, I was feeling very small movements. By 20, definite movements and kicks. At 24, I can see baby moving a bit from the outside and can feel her kicks from the outside

hope that helps!
