2nd Trimester

If you have felt movement from the inside...

I know people say that you can start to feel the baby move from the inside anywhere from 16-20 weeks, but I was just wondering about your own personal experiences: when did you feel the baby the first time?

I just saw a post from a girl who felt from outside and inside at 16w3d. Jealous.

Re: If you have felt movement from the inside...

  • Inside, 15-16 weeks... Outside, 19 weeks

  • I felt it once or twice around 18 weeks but it wasn't until 20 weeks or so that I started feeling it more often to know for sure that was what I was feeling.

  • I felt flutters from week 16 but not full on kicks until week 19. It will happen! First time for me was while I was taking a warm bath and pushing the warm water over my belly, finally he fluttered.  Now it's my favorite time of day to take a bath and watch him kick!

    GL!

  • Just about 3 weeks ago, but this is my 2nd.
  • I felt what I thought was flutters at 17 weeks exactly... then felt absoultely nothing until 21 weeks. I have an anterior placenta which does change things, but I started feeling movement from inside and outside within days of each other.
  • I felt movement from the inside at 17 weeks, from the outside at 19 weeks. I was able to see the kicks starting last week (week 23).
  • I felt her for the first time on the inside at 20w2d. I am just now getting to point where I can feel a few kicks from the outside and I'm 23 weeks.
  • i felt flutters around 15.3 weeks~ they were random and very light

    now at 20 weeks, i have felt the baby consistently everyday for the past week! a little in the morning (right after i eat breakfast, a lil in the late afternoon- like around 3ish and sometimes on the couch at home after i eat but not everytime)...

    no kicks felt from the outside yetSad although dh swears he felt it friday night when we were laying in bed (i doubt it since i have been trying and no such luck! but maybe i am looking too hard for it!)

  • I started to feel her move at 15 weeks. Not really kicks but like a bubbling when she would change her position. Last week I started to feel real pokes (from the ultrasound I had today they are actual kicks that I'm feeling). I've only felt it once from the outside a few days ago.
  • Inside: 17w4d

    Outside I think around 20w

  • I actually felt one kick in the 18th week and then some movement (flutters) and now there is movement all the time.  It's different for everyone though so just be patient because from what I've read eventually you'll want it to calm down!! 

  • I felt flutter movement from the inside around 18 or 19 weeks and at 20 weeks small kicks..and yesterday they were so strong I actually saw my belly jump a little!  DH felt them at 21 weeks :-)

  • I started feeling flutters at week 13-14. Which is early. But, I started feeling actualy kicks about week 18. At week 19 I saw my stomach move for the first time. Now, I feel him daily.
  • I felt irregular flutters between 16 and 18 weeks and at 21 weeks could feel from inside and outside.
  • Flutters first felt around 17 weeks. And felt the baby from the outside just last night...20 weeks!  :)
  • From the inside at about 18-19 weeks, from the outside (and sometimes able to see the kicks) middle of the week last week (21 weeks).  DH was just able to feel her and realize it last night.
  • I probably felt her before 18w, but that's when I was sure it was her and not gas.  For a first-timer I didn't know what I was supposed to feel, so I think I was confused for a bit.  I felt her move outside at 19w.
  • I felt flutters at exactly 16 weeks, and definite kicks around 18.  I felt movement from the outside at 19 weeks.
  • Not until 20-21 weeks. Maybe I wasn't paying enough attention? DH can feel the movement from the outside now.
  • For the first time was around 14 weeks, just flutters. I didn't feel from the outside until several weeks later.

  • From the inside -  I can't remember when from the outside though

    First baby was around 16 weeks, sencond baby was about 14 weeks, third baby about 13 weeks!  I have yet to feel this one on the outside, but soon I am sure!

  • Inside, 18 weeks and outside, 21 weeks. I had to wait a little longer b/c I have an anterior placenta.

  • inside: 18 weeks, 1 day.

    outside: not yet, really. dh claims he felt this weekend (18 weeks, 5 days) but i think he got lucky.

  • The first time I felt it on the inside I was about 18 weeks...then about a week later I could feel it from the outside of my tummy. I am 21 weeks now and my boyfriend felt it for the first time last night. He was amazed. :)
  • I felt flutters at 16/17 weeks but only once or twice. I didn't feel true kicks until last Tuesday (19w5d) and nothing from the outside yet.

  • DH swears he felt flutters before this, but I did not feel anything until week 18. When I did first feel it, I could feel inside and out.

  • Inside-I would have to say 15-16 weeks. I can't exactly pinpoint the date because it took me a little while realize that I was actually feeling the baby & not my food digesting lol.

    Outside-Nothing yet. Still waiting, as is my poor husband, he feels kind of left out because he can't feel it yet.

    Just be patient, it'll happen.

  • Inside, around 17-18 weeks.

    Outside, around 19-20 weeks.

  • Still waiting, unless that's not gas I'm feeling.  Who knows.  I'm getting impatient, though! Stick out tongue
  • I started feeling flutters on the inside around 17 weeks. ?I probably was feeling them sooner, but I wasn't sure what it was. ?I can now feel them from the outside all the time starting at 20/21 weeks. ?
  • Felt the baby from the inside around 17 weeks and still havent felt from the outside yet, cant wait though.
  • I'm a first time mom also, so was a little confused about what I was feeling.  But around 14wks I knew for sure that it was the baby.  Yesterday (19wks) was probably the first day that we could feel her from the outside really good.  I was eating some extremely spicy nacho dip and chips, and she kicked me so good I could see my belly vibrate a little.  Last night I'm not sure if she had the hiccups or was just doing a lot of moving, because I could feel her for at least a good 30mins.

    Me: 36  DH: 37
    DD1: 9  DD2: 6

  • I started feeling movement at 14-15weeks. DH felt it less than a week later. Shortly after I could also SEE the kicks. I'm on the pretty early side, as all of it happened before I even reached 18weeks... on the down side, I've been feeling BHs too, since 17weeks along.

  • I felt light, fish flopping at 14 weeks.  Didn't feel it again until a couple days ago.  Not feeling anything consistently yet.
