hmmm, when I started reeeally feeling him, I knew it. I'm sure I possibly felt him many times before but right around my 19th week it was very obvious.

I *think* I'm starting to feel things but I'm not sure. I dont think the first feelings are obvious at all.

I feel little twinges, almost like a tiny butterfly in my lower abdomen. I don't feel them often either--MAYBE 1 time a day. And, I just started feeling it yesterday.

not very at all. everyone says it feels like a "flutter". what the heck is a flutter supposed to feel like! lol. then i thought it was gas bubbles. up until like the past week or so, i was not sure. now i am positive they were little nudges! it does feel kinda weird.

It took me a couple weeks to trust that the movement I felt was actually the baby.

The first movement I felt was fairly obvious. It was about 14 or 15 weeks and I thought, "oh boy.. I got an early bloomer!" Yeah, after that first week.. NOTHING and I was pretty bummed/sad/worried. Didn't feel lo till about 27 wks, then it was really obvious!!

i would say not very. with it being my first, i wasn't sure what to expect it to feel like. i definitely know now! :-P

I thought I had felt a few little grumbles or flutters around 18 weeks but it was at exactly 19 weeks that I knew I'd for sure felt the first movement.

DH and I were driving on the highway on our way to do some Christmas shopping. He went over a bump and it felt like I was on a roller coaster. I said "woah, that was quite the bump' he looked at me like I was completely crazy, I figured at that point that I'd felt the baby as we went over the bump in the road.

This. With DD I was pretty sure since it felt like a little tap right where we had heard the heartbeat a few days prior. Then I felt the same thing in the same spot later that day. With this baby I am pretty sure I have felt him/her a few times but I still second guess myself!

It wasn't really obvious until I was at my Dr appointment. I could see the baby moving and this reassured me that I was feeling the baby!

I thought the same thing "Uh..flutter?" I felt what was like gas bubbles/hunger grumbles..But I would have just eaten and stuff so I kinda knew it wasnt that and the baby but I always second guessed.. Now theyres no denying it Now I'm feeling little kicks and nudges but for a while it just felt like I had a worm in my belly..like a rubbing inside so to speak.

When I *thought* I felt her move for the first time, I knew it was a different feeling than I had felt before but I wasn't positive that it was LO until a couple of weeks later when the movements became a little stronger.
