Feeling movements?

AmandaG225 · January 2016

I am not sure if this is even possible but I am 10w 1d with my second baby and I swear I can feel movement already! I felt my first baby pretty early at 15w and was told by the Dr that my placenta was behind baby and that is why I was feeling her sooner than most. I know baby is still tiny bit it is definitely a different feeling. Anyone experienced this?

I'm 10w2d and felt a few little flutters last night, but brushed them off as most likely gas. I felt my DD move pretty early too (can't remember exactly when but I remember it was way earlier than most first time mamas). Baby is still pretty tiny at this point, but I guess you never know!

I doubt it as your uterus isn't even past your pubic bone yet.

It's probably gas.

This. Plus, I mean, it's tiny right now.

ETA: it is probably, very truly, just gas.

Pretty sure my doctor said there was no way I could feel any type of movement before 16 weeks. It would be sooner for a STM, but I don't think that much sooner...

I personally think it's possible. I felt baby #1 at 16 weeks, and I'm also 10w and I SWEAR I felt the tiniest movement right in the front close to where my c-section scar is, so super low. As STMs we know what to feel for this time. I bet with baby #1 I felt flutters but thought it was gas, this time I think I'll have a better handle on telling the difference between the two. Exciting!!

It's gas. FWIW, I felt gas bubbles that felt exactly like baby flutters once while not even pregnant. And I've been pregnant before and know what baby flutters feel like.

I felt my first at 13w 3d. I'm wondering how early it will be this time around. I apparently have a really prominent uterus as the midwife was surprised when she easily felt it over my abdomen at just barely 9 weeks. (I could feel a hard softball size lump pushing out my lower abdomen above my pubic bone at 8 weeks when most women dont have that happen until after 12 weeks). She said size and placement wise it reminded her of a 12 week uterus. I think being short everything is shoved outward earlier as I'm only 4'11" and I feel it quicker.

I felt my first at 17 weeks. I am now 10 weeks 1 day and I swear I have felt some flutters. However, I really think its too soon and will be going with 'it is just gas' haha!

SkiChic626 · January 2016

smilormarie Yup! I have that too, I was able to feel my fundus around 8w, as well - it was slight, but definitely there. I, however, am not short, I'm 5'10", so I think we're all just built differently

@missteacherlady16 That's a cool visual!

It's exciting to think that in a matter of just few more weeks, I get to feel my little peanut! #FTM I personally think it's gas because I felt something too this past week (almost 12 weeks) but baby is still sitting low and small. I'm looking forward to the obvious movements and all!

I'm thinking more gas even though several women seem to be experiencing the same thing. 10 weeks seems really early to feel movement though.
