On another note it is kind of screws up that someone puts a deal question and people post ugly comment cause they have nothing better to do.
I was nice and helpful here, so I consider this my good deed of the day. Please use the search function in the future.
If it brings you comfort though I think it's perfectly fine to assume it's the baby though. Just wait though for the real kicks that make your belly move. Those are the best! Definitely have a little while for that!
I would try to search questions like this first in the future because this one has been asked and answered a lot!
People can and do feel their babies move.at different stages. Just like.how kids grow and develop at different stages. When hey say your child should do x by 3 months, MANY will do do it earlier. It's a guideline! The later in pregnancy thing is a guideline also!
Enjoy what you feel! Bask in it. Celebrate it. And IGNORE those that are rude!
For example if you "measure" at 13 weeks and your baby is just over a couple inches what makes you think (unless you are a very "speshul" snowflake) that your LO all of a sudden is double that size (measuring closer to 18 weeks) which is where most books will say that baby movements may be felt by this point. Unless you are a scientific phenomena you truly are experiencing organ, shifting, your bowels making their way through or just gas.
If you want to live in an alternate reality I encourage you to return to The Matrix.
Those that have responded like minded are not rude, I think we're tired of people that think that they can inundate this board with questions that have been addressed several times and can easily be searched through or by using the search feature in the forum. This is not YAHOO answers this is a developing community.
"I really feel like having a shot of whiskey at night before bed helps the baby. Everything I've read says it's not good, but I just really have a feeling it's fine. "
"Sure hun! Everyone is different, if you feel it's right don't let these bullies tell you otherwise!! Peace and love!"
:P
It must be Saturday.
It may seem rude to someone just stumbling upon these posts for the very first time, but for those of us who put in the time and effort with this community, it just gets so OLD to see the same threads over and over, and the same "you ladies are so rude!" Responses to responses. Day in, and day out.
We all were new here at one time or another. Most of us read the newbie blog and learn about the community before jumping in and jumping all over existing members. The guidelines we all follow exist for a reason. The search button exists for a reason. It's all very simple, and it becomes very frustrating that some people just refuse to catch the damn ball.
Have a question? GREAT! Check the search or scroll for a thread that may address it first. Then if you'd like more info, do some research! Or ask a question, no problem...but if it is one we've gone around the mulberry bush with nearly every day for the last two months, people are going to have something to say. If you had a big giant sign up at work that says THIS WAY NEW EMPLOYEES, yet new people came up everyday and asked you the same question "which way do I go?" what do you think you would feel like?
Omg. We should so start a repeat post bingo. I would play!
Since you seem adamant about telling people they are wrong, and that your reality is correct, can you please provide you "facts" you seem to proclaim?
In fact the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology (AJOG) has numerous articles citing the beginning of quickening (fetal movement felt by the mother) to be 12-13 weeks in some cases.
See... That's the thing about science. It's true whether you want to believe it or not.
Now, if you can find a research study the proves quickening is IMPOSSIBLE at 13w, I'd love to read it. Dissenting opinions in scientific research are a form of entertainment for me #Imanerd
If you are going to berate people on the internet for being idiots and flounce in with "common sense" and "facts", then have some science on your side. Seriously, before you claim all powerful knowledge on something, bring the science. Bring it.
This damn post won't die bc of all the random WK that keep coming to the rescue for OP (who never even thanks y'all!) and once it does, we will have to deal with another drama-laden post 24 hours later... It's just silliness, all around. Everybody needs to get over themselves at this point.
For the record, I warned all of you!
You "ladies" should really get ahold of yourselves. How sad.
Maybe just maybe you are seeing these you ladies are so rude comments day in and day out because you asked are really so self absorbed and rude. I'm on here often I just don't post. But after the absolute nasty high school girl antics. If you've seen the post so many times and it just pains you sooooo much scroll past it. How sad to see this behavior from what should be grown women though is suppose some are still teenagers.

Great move on and leave it alone. You are acting like pretentious jerks.
No idea who she was but no. That's not me. I'm just clearly a bit older and perhaps wiser than the groupies.
