3rd Trimester

When did you DH feel kicks?

I can feel it in my hands when I touch my belly, DH still can't. Then he just gets frustrated.

Re: When did you DH feel kicks?

  • my dh couldn't feel our son until about 6.5 months, but Im a curvy mama to begin with...he was putting lotion on my belly and rubbing it in and our son decided to "play" with Daddy's hand...totally freaked him out! your special moment will come...don't worry ;)

  • around 20 weeks, but it involved him propping his arm with a pillow and keeping his hand on my belly for about 30 minutes before he felt anything.

    my kids could feel the baby around the time you are, but this is my 3rd.

  •  I started feeling outside kicks around 19-20wks, but he couldnt till about 21-22. He would have his hand on my belly waiting forever, then as soon as he gave up the baby would kick really hard or squirm. LOL
  • Probably around 20-ish weeks. Maybe 21 or 22. I think baby can tell the difference between mommy's touch and daddy's touch because I rub my belly all day long & he's happy to kick tons for me.... as soon as DH touches me, he stops.
  • My DH still hasn't, but then I'm not sure if I have felt them from the outside either.  Sometimes I think I can, but who knows since I'm also feeling them from the inside.  My baby just gives a kick here or a kick there, not a bunch of kicks in the same spot, so I never have my hands in the right place when it does kick.  Last night DH actually grabbed my belly and commanded, "Kick Damnit!"

  • I don't remember exactly... but it was somewhere between 20-24 weeks.
  • DH felt baby give one solid hard kick at 20 weeks exactly, the night before out big ultrasound. It was probably around 22 weeks when he started to feel him more often.

    No, I wanted to get opinions from people farther along than I am. Half the people on 2nd tri aren't as far along as me. Didn't think it was that big of a deal.

  • MH didn't feel the baby kick until 25 weeks.

  • Right at 20 weeks for us.
  • He could feel and even see them from the outside around 21 weeks.
  • Around 20 weeks.
  • 17 weeks.  She is a big kicker!  He felt the first little somethings around then, big kicks by 19.  Now we see & feel her ALL the time.  His hand rarely leaves the belly!

  • I was 25 weeks along when DH finally felt him move. ?He had been so low it was hard to feel the kicks. ?Now DH can touch my belly and get him to move or kick back it is really interesting.
