second guessing movement

AACraven85

I've had some odd sensations lately.. particularly yesterday morning. They are very subtle and infrequent, but I'm pretty sure yesterday's was actually the baby. I was laying still on the couch and felt a very soft flip or swipe where my uterus is. I hadn't ate or drank in a few hours, and I didn't have gas.

However... everyone says first time moms don't usually feel anything until 18-20 wks on average. but I've also read that the thinner you are, usually the earlier you feel movement. Ok stick with me here- the average us woman is about a size 14.. I'm a 4/6. Does it sound plausible that I may be feeling my baby??

I'd say it's baby moving around. I've felt a few flutters over the last couple of weeks and I'm a size 0. Yea for being tiny!

I think it's plausible. I've been feeling some soft little taps (I think) for the past couple of days, but I'm still not sold on if it's baby or not. It's definitley a new feeling though... or maybe I'm just paying more attention now. I'm a size 0/2.

thanks for not making me feel crazy, ladies!

I'm a size 6/8 and I swear I felt the baby this morning. I just finished a cup of coffee and it wasn't like anything I have ever felt. I'm going with - WE ARE FEELING OUR LITTLE ONES! 

 

Yeah! Congrats! Yippeeee!

Am I really the only one that took offense to this?  I'm sure it wasn't meant to be offensive, but wow.  I guess us other average size girls will have to wait (even though I'm a size 10 and I felt DS at 16 weeks and this one at 14 weeks).

I started feeling flutters right at 16 weeks. I feel them all the time now! It's not too early for you, and I'm a sz 6 pre-pregnancy so I'm not super tiny.

At my last appointment, my doctor determined that I have a posterior placenta because we could hear LO kicking like crazy on the doppler. With less of a barrier in between, she said I'm going to feel more movement than other women may. I'm thrilled, I love feeling those consistent flutters. Cutest thing ever!

Its probably the baby.  I had an appt last week and I asked the doctor if what I was feeling was the baby.  She seemed to think what I described was the baby.

I'm so jealous!  My dr told me at my last appointment that I have an anterior placenta so I won't feel as much movement.   So far I haven't felt a thing, but w/ my DD I started feeling little flutters around 16 wks.
