When did you feel the babies??

katiejo86

Hello, I am currently going on 18 weeks pregnant with twins.  This is my first pregnancy.  I have not felt the babies yet, and everyone acts like I should be?  When you did you first feel them?  I went to the dr on Friday, and saw that everything is fine, but just anxious.  TIA!

I didn't feel any movement that I was sure was the babies until 20 or 21 weeks.  I felt some flutters before then, but I'll never know if it was them or not.

I'm 21 weeks. I know some of the feelings I have had were babies, but I'm never sure. So don't feel to bad. My doctor said closer to 24 weeks.

16 weeks or so. I have two posterior placentas though.

I felt at least one of them around 18 weeks.

It was definitely after my a/s at 18.5 weeks that I started feeling kicks. I want to say it was closer to 20 weeks. Before that I felt flutters, but I am not sure I would have recognized that it was the babies if this was my first pregnancy. Now at almost 24 weeks I feel Baby B a lot. Baby A has an anterior placenta so I don't feel her as often.

You will feel it soon. I felt mine at 16 weeks.

20w for Baby A and 22w for Baby B. A is posterior placenta and very low while B is anterior and very high. Now I feel them both all day every day. I swear they keep each other awake 24/7 kicking and punching one another which means Mommy doesn't get much sleep lately!

I have an anterior placenta and felt flutters at about 20 weeks.  But this week, at 22, I have really started to feel Baby B mostly.  Baby A is still mostly flutters but hubby can feel B from the outside,

 You will know it when you feel it.  It is wonderful!

For the past couple of weeks I occasionally feel what I think might be the babies, but I'm not sure-so almost 20 weeks and no definitely movement yet.  Both are anterior placentas, so I know that will delay things for me.

16w, but these are my 2nd and 3rd. Do you have an anterior placenta for either of them? That could prevent you from feeling them sooner.

At 13 weeks I felt what I thought might be babies. I knew for sure around 15-16 weeks.

I have no idea about my placentas yet, my a/s is next week so I guess I will find out more then.  The dr's haven't talked too much about that kind of thing yet.

I have two anterior placentas and have just started to feel them this week (19). I thought I might have felt flutters maybe last week, but wasn't sure. I can tell better now since I could actually see them moving on the ultrasound today and felt it at the same time.

I had an anterior placenta, and I didn't feel anything concrete until...honestly...like 26 weeks. But then I felt it all the time, even from the outside. Don't stress!

Between 18-19 weeks.  Even though this is my second pregnancy I wasn't totally sure what I was feeling was them for a few days.

I thought I felt arms and legs poking or prodding me earlier, but didn't know for sure so I figured I imagined it because I wanted to feel them move. But I felt a muscle like twitching start around 21 weeks. I'm now almost 25 weeks and I feel them both moving all the time. My husband even felt both babies move around 24 weeks and I'm starting to watch my belly move as they move.
