1st Trimester

Did I feel baby move??

I'm 10/11 weeks pregnant and the other night laying awake in bed (again) I felt gas-like bubbles in my lower abdomen (uterus?). Was that the baby moving?????? or am I just crazy??  Anyone know what this feels like??

  • Sounds like gas or indigestion. 
  • In answer to your subject line: No.

     

  • I didn't have gas....that was what I thought at first, too...
  • No.  You did not feel baby move.  You'll be LUCKY if you feel baby move around 16 weeks.  Probably will be closer to 18-20 weeks.

  • Sigh.

    Your baby is the size of a prune. Explain to me how you think something the size of a prune - with limited strength and limb length - could make a movement you could feel through all that fluid, your uterus, your muscle and fat layers, etc.

     Not to mention the whole thing is situated under your pelvic bone.

    I'm sorry. It's gas. You'll feel your baby soon enough, but for right now, that's not what's going on. You can chose to accept that or not, but that's reality.

  • Well, if it wasn't gas, I think you're pregnant with a vampire

  • Okay, yes. You felt the baby move. You and your baby are both amazing. It could not possibly have been gas because you didn't fart, thus it was your amazing superhuman baby. Congrats.

    This.

    Gas doesn't necessarily mean you have to be breaking wind. At any time, digested food is emitting gas in your intestines. This is what you felt.

  • When your baby moves, you'll know!  It's like nothing else you've ever felt.  Probably not before 16 weeks though.
  • I felt DS at 14w, and that was super early even for a 2nd baby. So, gas.
  • Not the baby moving, way too early for that.

  • Gas... the baby is like the size of a blueberry.
  • Gas.  You won't feel the baby move until 14 weeks at the earliest, possibly earlier if its your 2nd/3rd/etc child.  Baby is moving at 10 weeks but not much and is way too small for you to feel.
