hello new here i think i may be a day or so early but i couldnt help my self. very curious to see when everybody first felt there baby moving? i am eagerly awaiting that moment.
I can't remember exactly, but it was very early. I kept reading that it was too early to feel the baby, it must be gas, etc. Now that I feel him consistently (and can even see him move) I know that I was indeed feeling him that early on. I'd say it was by 12 weeks.
I started feeling kicks at 16 weeks. I could feel them on the outside at 17 weeks. I never had a "flutters" stage. I think I could feel real kicks early because I am very thin.
I'm almost 19 weeks and I still haven't felt anything. At my appointment on Friday, the doctor said that she wouldn't be surprised if I was 22 or 24 weeks before I was feeling anything for sure. I sure hope it's sooner!
Felt weird, fleeting movements that never lasted long from 18 weeks or so. 20 weeks, 1 day I felt clear movement for the first time. Be patient- it's worth the wait!
