Feeling Baby Kick At 11 Weeks?

RaisingJulian

I'm 11w1d. This is my 2nd pregnancy. My son is now 2 1/2 and I swear I felt my baby roll today. Has anybody else felt movement this early? I hope I'm not the only one and going crazy lol

At this point I think it's safe to say it's just gas. Baby is so small right now it's pretty impossible to feel them this early regardless of how many pregnancies you've had.
If you remember the beginning stages of feeling movement are more like light fluttering called quickening.

I believe you can. All depends on how in tune with your body you are. I'm 12+4 and can feel little butterfly's

I haven't felt anything yet. I'm 12/2 but my doctor asked me today if I've felt baby yet so I assume it's possible or he wouldn't have asked.

I am 14 weeks and I thought I felt a flutter. Turned out to be just gas.

I believe anything is possible. I personally have Not it experienced any feeling yet, but my body is obviously different than your body. If you think you felt the baby, then congratulations! I'm a bit jealous! I can't wait to start to feel this little peanut, it is my absolute last.

Edit* added have not.

I got asked this at my 8 wk appointment on a standard form that I've had to fill out at every appointment since.... could just be a standard question.

Edit: typo on the word fill.

13w is early, even for a second pregnancy. https://americanpregnancy.org/while-pregnant/first-fetal-movement/
The baby will nearly double in size between 11w and 13w, so I think it's safe to say it's too small to feel at 11w and it's most likely gas.

I'm almost 13 weeks and had an US yesterday where baby was doing literally jumping jacks in my belly...I felt nothing. Not raining on anyone's parade but I really think what you felt was gas and hope.

MadBloom

I'm 16 weeks on Monday and I am JUST starting to feel like what I'm feeling isn't gas. I felt my daughter around 18ish weeks last pregnancy and that was only because I thought I was feeling gas bubbles but I was at an ultrasound and could feel/see the movement at the same time.

I felt implantation and everything since

So if anything is possible I totes felt baby at 2 weeks

I totes felt the egg moving down from my Fallopian tubes and the sperm fertilizing my egg guise!!!!!!

Truly, at 11 weeks it is gas. Baby is SO tiny still and its not strong enough to make their movement felt. Movement is one of the most exciting things during pregnancy so it's easy to convince yourself that's what it is, but it's important to read up in stuff like this to see what's really possible.

And telling people that "because you think you did, means you did" doesn't help anything. It makes mom paranoid and freak out when she doesn't "feel the baby" for another week simply because she hasn't had gas. That's how we end up with terrified mommies racing to the ER at 3:00am for nothing.

There really are a lot of great websites and books with really reputable info on stuff like this. I've had fun reading up and learning all kinds of new stuff that IS happening.

At my 12 week ultrasound the tech told me it is impossible to feel the baby at even 13 weeks. Prob gas or something...the baby is just too small and cushioned by too much fluid and internal organs to be felt.

I don't care what anyone says, I've felt the baby as well for my second pregnancy and I am also 11 weeks. Little flutters if you think it is mama, you know best!

This "rationale" ("I'll disregard what the doctors say bc as a mother *I* know best!!!") is not only ignorant, it is flat-out irresponsible and DANGEROUS in many situations (see, e.g., the outbreak of preventable diseases in wealthy areas due to parents not vaccinating).

You're not a medical professional. You don't know best.

ewhitledge

Well I don't care what anyone says, I can hear my baby saying mama in utero cuz I'm mama and I know best. Forget science, maternal instinct ftw!

I'm 11 weeks today and this is also my second. My first is 5 yrs old and I don't feel shit! I mean I don't even feel gas. No bump and no baby moving. Maybe tomorrow when I am 11 weeks and 1 day like you, I'll all of a sudden have a bump and feel the baby move.

kwaldy

Lol I'm 12 weeks today and farting like crazy

It pisses me off when women say something along the lines of "I am just so in tune with my body". I'm calling bullshit.
Being in tune with your body does NOT mean your body defies science.

What's with all the rude comments? Seriously I understand you have an opinion on the subject but there's a nicer way of putting things.

This question has been asked and debated frequently. Women are spreading false information by stating they do feel kicks and don't care what anyone says.
Why is false information bad? What if you believe you are feeling kicks(aka digestion) and then don't feel it for several days in a row. Now these women are calling their doctors in a panic or going to er. Both are taking time and resources away from patients that truly need it.

Who was rude?

Science says you cannot feel your baby moving at 11 weeks. Science trumps all, sorry.
