baby kicks for Daddy to be

When should Daddy to be start feeling the baby kick?  I'll be 21 weeks tomorrow and have been feeling kicks since about 16 weeks.  I'm anxious for him to get to experience Baby!

  • I think I was 32 weeks before he could feel her. However it seems to be very different person to person.

  • I've been feeling them for a few weeks now, but my husband felt them about 2 nights ago for the 1st time. He can kind of make out the flutters, but he can feel the big kicks pretty well if he holds his hand there long enough.

     

  • Everyone is different but with #1 DH felt them at about 19 weeks because we were so diligently trying to catch them. This time we got it at about 19 weeks as well because this one just moves like a crazy person.

  • You should be close...I remember it being around week 20-21!
  • I think around 21/22wks! and now whenn I lay close o my DH back he can feel her move then too!
  • DH felt his first "flutter" on my belly last week (I was at 23 weeks).  He was so excited and wants to touch my belly all the time now!
  • i felt them at 17 weeks but he prob didn't until 21/22nd week... now at 28 weeks it's so common he's almost like "do i HAVE to every nite??" (and i say, generally, yes!)

  • I barely felt a flutter myself until after our big u/s at 20 weeks, then within a day or two, I was feeling him all the time and a few days later, dh felt him (wayyyy down low!)  It was so cool.  But now, every time I try or he tries, LO stops moving...stubborn little boy!
