I almost fell down the stairs today!

Haribo1 · April 2011

As I was going up the stairs at work earlier, I suddenly felt this tickle in my lower abdomen! It was the oddest feeling. Like a flutter or motor. I felt something like this early this week and thought maybe it was gas. Hello little one, is that you? Sooooo weirdly different but brought a smile to my face with the thought that it may actually be Baby Haribo!

SO GLAD you didn't fall! YIKES! And YES..that is the baby! I have heard all sorts of banter about "it's gas..." yada yada. But at 15 weeks you can absolutely feel the baby! I started feeling DD #2 at 14 weeks. With #1, I wasn't quite sure. But now....with #3, I know it's early....but little flutters here and there are very apparent. And I do believe (in my experience)--that I DO know what those little flutters feel like! So happy you are experiencing your baby's movements! Yahoo!

It's easy to tell if it's gas or not... gas doesn't just vanish it has to be ahem.. vented Smile

That's how I could tell early on if it was baby or not... if I felt flutters, and I didn't pass gas... it was the baby.

I started feeling flutters around 15-16 weeks, then they stopped. My stupid anterior placenta stopped me from feeling much as things progressed then around week 28 I started getting full on punches and kicks.

According to the OB that's when she finally got strong enough to punch hard enough that it goes right through that pillow of fluid.

Congrats on your milestone!
