Ladies around 18 weeks....

karenandjeff · July 2009

Have you confidently felt the baby move yet? I am dying for this next step, still hasn't happened yet for me.

Nicole731 · July 2009

I'm 19 weeks, and still haven't felt consistent movement. Just a tap and nudge once or twice a day.

LadyJavy · July 2009

I just felt a kick last night for the first time while lying in bed. I've heard a definite kick or punch usually can be felt between 18 and 20 weeks

magdusia · July 2009

I started feeling it at 19 weeks... but i know some friends that didnt feel it until in their early 20's

Alyssajoy87 · July 2009

Yes, but not consistently. Hang in there! Your LO will be kicking and punching before you know it!

getnmarried910 · July 2009

Not consistent movement, but I will feel taps sometime, or, if I'm laying just right, I'll feel movement if the baby is up against that part of the uterus.

Mrs. Erin · July 2009

I felt something the past couple of days, and I'm guessing it's the baby. This is my first, so I really have nothing to compare it to

It kind of feels like a tickeling or tapping on the inside of my tummy just below the belly button. It's like nothing I've ever felt before!

My sister didn't feel anything with her first until she felt the kicks at 24 weeks. Everyone is SO different.... try not to worry about it. Smile

Blondemommy · July 2009

Finally in the last couple of days I've felt motion and a few tiny jabs that I'm pretty sure were baby. Nothing consistent at all though.

Johnna&Ralph · July 2009

Yes, although not on a regular basis. She was doing what felt like flips the other day for like half and hour.

Randa&Jerm · July 2009

not consistantly, but I know that I have felt the baby...but this is my 2nd.

tnd1218 · July 2009

This is my second, I started feeling small movement at 16 weeks. Now I feel him at night while lying down, and some random jabs thoughout the day. Like PP have said everyone is different, im sure it will be soon when you start feeling LO Big Smile

Soms12 · July 2009

Yah, I am just about 18 weeks and I felt it for the first time yesterday afternoon and then at nighttime. Now that I know what to look for and how it feels, I am anxious to feel it more. Its such an awesome feeling....I am sure you will feel it soon! Smile

kimberleigh30 · July 2009

Nothing yet (that I'm aware of)

YayMom · July 2009

I have just now been able to really feel my boy kick consistently. It happens every night at about 10:00pm.

mommys.gummy.bear · July 2009

i felt my first movement at 18w5d and its been consistent ever since.

Alycia72478 · July 2009

I just felt my first movement last Monday, right after I hit 20 weeks! It's amazing! Good Luck

vmm0016 · July 2009

Sorry, the only thing I have felt is if I get up too fast I can feel it move down. It is like the baby going whoa I wasn't ready for that. Other than that nothing though.

littlemaybaby · July 2009

I started feeling something at 17 weeks, and it was around 18 weeks that I was confident it was the baby. I've been pretty lucky in that I'm feeling him/her pretty consistently everyday now, but not feeling the LO until past 20 weeks is totally normal!

mrsnicolew · July 2009

With my first I didn't feel movement until 20-22 weeks.

.:miss_kari · July 2009

:I started feeling flutters around 16 weeks and now I am getting kicked/punched on a regular basis.. DH got to feel them a few nights ago for the first time. My midwife says that we are lucky.. and thinks I am feeling everything so soon because I was a "twiggy lady".

DueDec2009 · July 2009

Yes but it's not consistent yet. It was actually hard enough for my husband to feel with his hand at the beginning of the week so that was exciting! But it's just starting to really pick up.

ickasticka · July 2009

I started feeling movement (squiggles, butterflies, bubbles) around 16 weeks, but I didn't get my first definite kick until 19 weeks 6 days. Hang in there, it's coming. You will definitely know it when it happens, and then you won't be able to stop smiling all day. Trust me!

lauraluft · July 2009

I'm 21 weeks and just started feeling it consistently.

The placenta is along my tummy instead of my back though, so he kind of has to kick or elbow the area around it or do some kind of movie-stunt karate kick for me to feel it in front!

At 19 weeks I was just starting to wonder if the gas bubbles might actually be baby movement. I think about half the time they might have been . . .

peytons_pal · July 2009

It just started a couple of days ago, its like a little flutter.

beth0930 · July 2009

DH and I were both able to feel quite a bit of movement the other night and that was the first time we were SURE it was the baby. (I was 18w 2d at that point.) Since then it hasn't been consistent but every so often I feel a little kick or jab, sometimes I can even feel a little roll when I roll over at night. Certain foods the baby reacts to - mostly stuff with sugar! LOL
