Are you feeling movements yet?

AshleyGemini24 · April 2016

Probably gonna get flamed for this one. Are any of you second or third time mom's already feelin movements? I'm only 13 weeks, but I'm certain I've felt Peanut twice now.

kelliott09 · April 2016

This is my third and no, definitely not. Although, the nurse did ask at my 10 week appt if I was feeling baby move. I didn't know if I should question her credibility or if that's really possible.

Piperella · April 2016

I'm a FTM, but haven't felt anything yet at 14w. During my 12w u/s they noticed the placenta behind the baby, near my spine. They said i would feel movement before most people because the baby was anterior, but I'm still thinking I'm a few weeks out.

kmvisioli · April 2016

Second time mom, almost 14 weeks, pretty sure I've felt a few little flutters in the past couple weeks! Not sure if it's because I'm carrying twins, so they are taking up more space already? Definitely looking forward to being able to tell for sure when it is baby and not digestion

JamieK1882 · April 2016

12 weeks STM and I got nothing so far

ejmo68 · April 2016

Yes very few and far between but I'm a STM at 14w and I also have a uterus that makes it more favorable for me to feel the baby before most.

ignoscemihi · April 2016

I thought I was going crazy, but I swear I've felt movement more than once. I'm 13 weeks with my second.

mtgreen21 · April 2016

I have felt little flutters confirmed during ultrasound (not looking at screen). I was blessed with a posterior placenta so as this LO grows I will be blessed with feeling everything. I am currently 13+2.

br0co1ii · April 2016

I'm 14w1d and thought maybe this morning I felt something. But them I "passed wind" and realized it's probably too soon.

Also, I always giggle at the phrase "pass wind" so I just HAD to use it.

LauraPCOS · April 2016

I'm 12+6 and nothing yet even though people keep asking. I did read somewhere though that FTMs that are plus size might not feel anything until closer to 25 weeks

really hope that's not the case.

nlane0723 · April 2016

I've felt a few flutters, but I'm a 2nd time mom with twins. Confirmed via U/S.

cd92007 · April 2016

I'm 12 weeks STM and I have been stopped in my tracks recently because I've felt something but I'm pretty sure it's my uterus stretching.

anna.oskar · April 2016

13w2d and I'm absolutely, positively not feeling anything. Had our NT scan Friday and babe was literally bouncing off the walls. If I could feel something this early, I would have then but nada.

BabySunshine4 · April 2016

12w 2d TTM and I haven't felt a thing. I think with my second I was 17 weeks when I felt him move.

von1976 · April 2016

I thought I might have felt something at 13 weeks. It felt like my lower abdomen vibrated for a few seconds, but it hasn't happened again. And no, it wasn't my cell phone! I know it's extremely unlikely so early on, but I have no idea what it was.

TurtleMomma · April 2016

STM and nothing so far, but I'm only 10ish weeks.

UponAStar16 · April 2016

Nah not yet but yay to those of you who have! Most feelings I'm getting seem to be RLP or digestion-related...

blessyourheartmama · April 2016

I am 13 weeks today, and have felt them for about a week. I'm a STM with twins. I think it was around 14 weeks with my first.

maysmiles · April 2016

STM, 10 weeks, lots and lots of stretching and pelvis discomfort but nothing that has been definitively baby movement. So anxious for my NT scan in 2 weeks to get my eyes on our little one....I still forget sometimes that Im pregnant............it was a surprise, a wanted surprise, but Im still in shock after doing fertility treatments the first time that this happened without help. Count down to 4/21 when I get to see LO.

I had an anterior placenta with DS and didnt feel anything until 20ish weeks, hoping to not have to wait that long this time and hoping for a posterior placenta so my DS can start bonding with his sibling more easily. He already likes to "listen" to baby- so so cute!

QueenTree · April 2016

1st time mommy, 12 weeks no movement yet but during the ultrasound the baby was just a moving & wiggling all around it was such a happy sight.

ammiddleton3 · April 2016

I've had a few random times I thought it might be the baby moving. However I'm also really bloated and gassy, so it's very possible it's that too!

coffee89 · April 2016

Yes, second time mom and started feeling them around 11 weeks. I was skeptical but I felt the same flick when we were in an us when baby flipped around. It is few and far between.

Last time I was closer to 17 weeks when I started noticing anything.

laxin31 · April 2016

With my son it was close to 20 weeks before I could actually say I felt him move....I am a stm and 12 weeks and haven't felt anything yet.

jillianpardo · April 2016

Bowel movements. Third baby!

Tara0604 · April 2016

STM/14w1d and i think i may have, but then i wonder if it's gas and i doubt myself. It's definitely few and far between at this point, if it is.

Hi Laura! I was (and still am) plus sized and I knew for sure I was feeling movement around 17 or 18 weeks last time - it started at 16 weeks, but I didn't know what I was feeling at that point.

I'm 12w tomorrow and I haven't felt anything yet.

I'm plus sized too, and my doctor today said to expect it between 16-20 wks. Hope she's right!

sjo_thetwins · April 2016

I seemed to have felt something with the twins this morning! I'm a FTM so can't be sure but I know I haven't felt anything like it - it kept rolling from side to side where I know both are from our U/S. It would be pretty cool if that's what it was - it's a wild feeling. I'm 11w3d. I unfortunately have nothing to compare the feeling to.

MRSCORKER · April 2016

I'm 11+3. Definitely haven't felt anything yet. At my scan this morning we saw peanut bouncing off the walls and I felt nothing. The tech said my placenta is on top, essentially right under my hand if I lay it on my abdomen, and will act as a "cushion" so I might not feel movement as early as some others. We'll see!

mizzkbrat · April 2016

FTM at 14 weeks and nothing. Wah!

duckmay · April 2016

I'm plus size with a serious gut, and I felt movement last time around 18-19 weeks. Nothing yet, but I wouldn't expect to at 11 weeks (or anytime soon).

FrancescaCDuncan · April 2016

It is definitely different for everyone, and I know I'm a rare exception. I don't talk about it often because I don't want other pregnant ladies to think that something is wrong if they don't feel the baby yet.

I'm a STM and started feeling this baby at 10 weeks. It started off with feeling it every couple of days, but now at 12 weeks I feel the baby at least once or twice every day. It's not a kicking feeling, but more of a rolling around and pushing feeling. During my first pregnancy, I started feeling the baby at 12 weeks. No one believed me (although my OB said it was possible), until I confirmed what I felt was the baby turning during an ultrasound.

A lot of it depends on the placement in the uterus and your sensitivity to feelings in that area of your body. Many women don't feel it until 20 weeks, and some even later. For you first time moms out there, don't stress about when you're gonna feel it. When you realize that you know for sure it's the baby moving, it's an amazing feeling and absolutely worth the wait.

That's what mine feel like! Baby A hangs out by my belly button and to the left. He/she rolls from side to side.

mothernorth · April 2016

I'm 14 weeks, and I know I have. It was too faint to be my organs moving around, and it was a different sensation than gas traveling the intestinal highway. I felt my last LO really early too, and my OB was shocked when I could actually feel the kicks he was picking up on the dopplar. So I for one say it's possible.

Sally1990 · April 2016

ttm here as well and have not felt anything yet at 14 weeks. With my 2nd i did feel things sooner then my first, that was around 16 weeks but wasn't sure until closer to 17+ weeks.

cbamama641 · April 2016

14 weeks, fourth time mama, and I'm about 98% sure I've been feeling flutters for the last couple days

BabySunshine4 · April 2016

Well I spoke too soon. I felt some movement for the first time yesterday. It startled me I was not expecting that so soon.

mrszoess · April 2016

I don't even know what to consider movement when it actually happens. I'm convinced I'll think it's gas til I see a hand or a foot

My doctor described it as "butterflies," but to me it was more like when you get a twitch in your eyelid or the space between your thumb and pointer finger, at least early in pregnancy. Later, as baby got bigger, the feeling changed to be more of a rolling sensation.

LGW2015 · April 2016

Yeah I'm pretty skeptical bc I have no idea how to identify it, but I did feel something today, like a brief rolling feeling, that I think might have been the baby! I guess only time will tell!

For me the first movements kind of felt like there was a little goldfish swimming around in there
