Can you feel your baby move yet?

Hello July mummas,

So all the pregnancy websites say you might be able to feel your baby move at 16 weeks. First time mothers may take longer than women who've already had babies to feel fetal movement, since they are pros at distinguishing baby kicks from gas etc.

I'm wondering, have you felt your baby move? What does it feel like?

I'm 16+3 and I think I might feel baby - a weird rolling sensation in my belly. But maybe I'm imagining it, or its something other than my avocado-sized fetus.

    @Krisite I literally just started a thread for this... yesterday? Sunday? I don't remember but there were awesome responses on there. Here's the link:

    I'm in the same boat. 16 weeks tomorrow and I have no idea if what I'm feeling is baby or not, but I kind of like to think it is.

    Yep. I'll be 16 weeks tomorrow and I felt her for the first time at the beginning of the week. Definitely a rolling sensation, not kicks or anything. More like she's flipping over or moving from one end of the uterus to the other. So fun to start feeling her move around!
