It depends on where your placenta is. Mine is anterior so it's like a pillow between me and the baby. I didn't feel her move until she got strong enough that I could feel her through it, which For me was about 21 weeks. She feels like a big fish swimming around in there, very smooth, soft movements. I feel them the best when I'm lying down at night.
25 weeks, in mine is moving like crazy! I call it my little ninja. I can actually see my belly move that's crazy but I love it! I started feeling little kicks around 14 weeks
I started feeling her around 18 -19 weeks. Its kinda felt like a rolling or tumbling motion then later on I'd feel her soft little kicks! Definitley feel them more at night and Wheb I'm in the car.
This is my second pregnancy, so this time around I know what to expect and I know what kicks are and what is just gas. I started feeling her at about 18 weeks with random kicks here and there, mostly when I'm sitting down which seems to compress her and when i'm laying down on my left side.
This is our 3rd and I was getting worried I didn't feel movement constantly everyday until LAST WEEK! (22 weeks) all is good with my other little ones I felt movement at 16-17 weeks !
Don't worry! I get worried too now that I've felt my little one move! If he's still too long I get nervous so I'll switch positions on the couch or get up and move around until I feel him. I attribute this to the fact I've experienced loss, I'm paranoid.
All you can do is take a deep breath and relax!
If you make an apt with your doctor you can hear your baby's heartbeat, if you are very worried don't be afraid to call! I'm sure you're not the first worried momma they've made apts for.
I got a really tickley feeling around 17 weeks right in my womb it's gradually got more and more regular until I started feeling kicking ish sensations around 18/19 weeks I'm 26 weeks now and from 23 weeks I started feeling strong kicks. Xx
I think I have felt mine around 18-19w. The softest little bubbles on occasion. I thought maybe it was the babies but wasn't sure, until I had my anatomy scan and saw where they were - which correlated to where I was feeling the bubbles. No discernible kicks or jabs yet though.
Im almost 18 weeks and i just starting feeling what feels like a poke from the inside of my stomach. Its the most amazing feeling. I cant wait to find out what im having and I cant wait to meet my angel.
I'm 16 weeks & I haven't felt anything , but maybe I have this is my first pregnancy. Should I be worried ? The doctors always said the heart beat is really strong. I'm really anxious to feel my loved one.
I'm 18 weeks today and have been feeling pokes and flutters all week!! I love it. I've been waiting on them. I felt a few back in March and nothing since.

I'm 15 weeks. Haven't felt a thing yet but heard a kick (according to my OB) on the Doppler yesterday. Coolest thing ever!
Started at about twenty weeks for me, and I wasn't totally sure it wasn't gas bubbles.
Then they just kept coming and got stronger, and I got a lot more solid on exactly what it was that I was feeling. I'm at 23 weeks, now, and have movement pretty much whenever I'm sitting still. When I went for my anatomical screening ultrasound at the beginning of last week, I was watching the movement occur on the screen as I was feeling it, which was cool and helpful.
I thought I felt it at 19 weeks but couldn't be sure. I was told at my 20 week checkup that my placenta is anterior (in the front) so it would happen in a week or 2. At 21.5 weeks my husband and I both felt it FOR SURE You should be feeling it soon!
I started feeling little flutters around 16 weeks, now at 21 weeks my fiancee was finally able to feel his movements on the outside, but i have to be lying flat- so surreal and after everything so far thats when it finally hit me that we are having a beautiful baby boy and i got really emotional, haha pregnancy hormones at its best!
I'm 13 weeks and I often feel movement in the lower part of my tummy and around my navel especially if I'm laying down. How can I tell if it is the baby or just gas?
Re: When will you feel baby move?
This is my second pregnancy, so this time around I know what to expect and I know what kicks are and what is just gas. I started feeling her at about 18 weeks with random kicks here and there, mostly when I'm sitting down which seems to compress her and when i'm laying down on my left side.
Exciting.

Much love!
