Feeling flutters!
Oh I forgot how awesome this was! Totally not gas as I have had plenty and this is baby! I feel like there is a little fish smack dab in the middle of my tummy, just below my belly button....just where I got this little buggers HB the other day!
R is convinced it is a little sister, just now before nap he said we need another bed in his room for his baby sister. Awwww....cue tears!

Re: Feeling flutters!
Feeling flutters and kicks is the only reason that makes me sad to be done havin kids. It is the best feeling ever!
And maybe R is on to something - Ellie always said she was having a brother.
I didn't feel M until after 20 weeks(I think it was closer to 24 weeks) due to having anterior placenta. I hope, if we have another, I am able to feel flutters earlier. Right now, I'm dealing with phantom kicks every so often. It always catches me off guard!
Yay for baby flutters:)
Same here! Enjoy the flutters!

I am still waiting for flutters. I hardly ever felt Reed due to anterior placenta. It was so stressful. I felt Pierce more, but still not as much as everyone raves about. This time I bought a doppler because I thought it would give me piece of mind. Instead I worried for 3 weeks until I finally found the hb yesterday, but not I've been able to find it quite a few times.
I didn't feel R until past 20 weeks. I have a doppler and still have trouble from time to time, I have caught it twice since trying at 12 weeks ish. Even my OB couldn't find it at 12 weeks 3 days. These flutters were very frequent around lunch but not much since, although this is the first time I sat down since!
A always said she would have a sister...she was right!
I just started to feel them too. I keep saying that Little one is tickling me because that is the easiest way to explain it. Like those light tickles that make your skin crawl a little. Definitely much earlier than we G.
G also says he is getting a sister. So we will wait and see.
Are you starting to feel better?
I think my energy is starting to come back, nights are still a little hard on the belly but I am not needing to eat every 20 minutes during the day anymore which is a nice change of pace.
