I'm still not sure

SpartanChick88 · June 2010

This morning I felt something that felt like a poke about 2 inches southwest of my bellybutton... it happened three or four times. Then, this afternoon after eating several mini peanut butter cups and butterfinger eggs Embarrassed , I felt some bubbly feelings in the same area and then another couple pokes (that felt a little like a muscle twitch). Was Ciara kicking me? I feel so horrible that I can't figure out what's my baby and what's my body doing stuff!

I think that definetely sounds like it could be baby kicks! Don't feel bad about not knowing. In the beginning it is hard to figure out.

I'd venture to say that that was a kick! Congrats on feeling her move. Once she becomes more active, you'll be like, "so that's what it feels like".

Sounds like LO is kicking ya! how fun!

I know I felt her roll over last week... it was a swishy feeling and my belly moved like wave. But if this is what kicks feel like, I guess she's been pretty active! The doc asked me today and I told her I still wasn't sure. She just smiled and said probably.

Sounds like movement to me :O)

You still have easter candy?

SpartanChick88 · June 2010

LOL - yeah, I do have Easter candy. It stems from the fact that anything with sugar has been a complete turn off for the last couple months. I'm a well known chocoholic, but I've only recently started wanting it again... and even then, only on occasion.

Dont feel bad. I finally knew it was the baby for sure around 21 or 22 weeks. Hang in there!

Sounds exactly how my boy punches me!! (I thought they were kicks, but the big u/s showed him way head down with legs stretched out and pointing up to my ribs and it is definitely his arms doing the damage.)

I'd say that's movement=and you are 20 weeks? yep. That's when I first started feeling my girl. I thought it might be gas but nothing came out-and it also felt like muscle twitches. She moves a lot when I lie on my back-so if I'm ever worried about her sometimes lazy days I lay down and she starts right up! Enjoy!!

Thats what my kicks feel like too! The only reason I know they were kicks is because the u/s tech told me they were. She saw the baby kick and asked if I felt that. When I told her I did, she said that was a kick. I think I would still be thinking they were gas if she hadn't said that:)
