The First Kick/Movement: When did you feel it?

Hi ladies,

When did you feel your little one's move for the first time?

I believe i haven't felt it yet.

 

Re: The First Kick/Movement: When did you feel it?

  • I felt Bryce for the first time at 15w, and this LO at 14w...which is SUPER early compared to most people.  I know of some girls who didn't feel anything until 22w, so don't worry.  You'll know when it happens; it is one of the obvious things that you can't mistake for something else.

  • With DD I felt her around 15w, with #2 it was at 12.5 week and I just felt a real kick this week (14w). I felt them super early, and this go round my placenta is on the back side of my uterus, which my doctor says is optimal for feeling movement.

  • I was wondering this as well. Also, what does it feel like? I can't wait until I can feel it!

  • With DD I didn't feel her until 24 weeks, but my placenta was in front, so I believe that prevented me from feeling a lot! I'm not holding my breath to feel this one any earlier than 20 weeks!

  • With DD I felt her at about 17 weeks. I just felt a little flutter last night that I'm convinced was this babe. To me it feels like little bubbles popping in the early stages and then it became very pronounced and regular within a few weeks.

  • I felt movement at 16 weeks with DS, and at 13.5 weeks with this baby.  This week, I am starting to feel the movement a little bit more consistently, and I finally don't have to be super still and quiet to notice it!  LOVE it! 
  • So weird!!! I came on here specifically to see if anyone was talking about this today. I'm 15wks and I swear, I think I felt it for the first time on my way into work this morning! My jeans are kinda tight today around my lower abdomen and I had my seatbelt on which applied even more pressure. Then all the sudden it felt like my lower ab muscles were twitching off and on. No fluttering, no bubbles, but TWITCHING! So... maybe it's a muscle spasm (?) but 2 hours later and I'm still feeling it. I think it's the baby and I'm so excited!!! I might be squishing him/her with these jeans but at least I got to feel it! Ahhh... Angel

  • I felt DS move for the 1st time on H's bday--I was a little over 14 wks (I'm slender, which means you can feel it sooner sometimes). I'm hoping that means I'll feel this one even sooner, since you tend to notice it earlier the 2nd time. i believe the average time to start noticing it is 15-18 wks.

  • My DR told me between now and 20 weeks I will start to feel something. Movement first and then kicks and such will come much later.
  • I was 18 weeks with DS when I felt him the first time.  13 1/2 weeks with this one right now and still haven't felt anything.

  • With DS 17 weeks and with this pregnancy I felt them right at 13 weeks (which even I would roll my eyes at but my doctor said with twins and it being my second pregnancy it is normal).
  • I swear I think I felt the baby the other night. I'm a stomach sleeper, and I woke up about to get up and pee and I felt little flutters. It's the only time I felt it though.

  • I'm a third time Mama?

    I swear I felt this one at 11.5 weeks. It just feels like little bubbles popping in my lower abdomen  

    With my First I felt him at like 14 weeks. DH felt him at 18 weeks.

    With my daughter I felt her early like this one.

    I think everyone is different. Im a slender girl and I think that has something to do with feeling them earlier and the fact that I know what it feels like helps too. Believe me once you feel it it will be like um... Did I just feel what I think I felt? and then it will move again and you will be like YEP! Feeling your baby move inside of you is the most amazing feeling.

  • I've been feeling it for a couple days now. For those who asked, it kind of feels like what I imagine a goldfish being in my belly would feel like.
