What week did u feel your baby move for the first time?

katb2021 · October 2021

Hi ladies, just curious what week did u feel first baby movement? I m 13 w 2 days. Can’t wait to feel baby moves. I know I have awhile to go but really looking forward to it.

I've had anterior placentas for all three pregnancies, and I want to say it was around 20 weeks or so (give or take) that I started feeling the baby. If you have a posterior placenta, you'll probably feel it a couple weeks sooner.

I was definitely sure I felt movements around 16/17 weeks with both. My second was an anterior placenta but off to one side.

I really started feeling movement around 20 weeks or so. I have an anterior placenta, FWIW. (But they can move!)

knottie39f01b3b97ae062a · November 2021

I felt movement at 19 weeks on the dot. (Am 24 weeks now). At my last ultrasound they said it can really depend on placement of things like your placenta. Mine happens to be behind baby so when she moves around it's very easy for me to feel it.

Around 22 weeks for my first pregnancy. 19/20 weeks for my second (currently 22w). I have an anterior placenta this time so feeling movement took longer than I expected for a second pregnancy.

knottie871cadc82514d3eb · November 2021

I had an ultrasound appointment at 19+1. My doctor asked if I started feeling anything and I was like, nope…nothing yet! Most likely it was because she mentioned it and I actually started paying close attention, but I started feeling the baby move the very next day!

jc0820 · December 2021

This is my second pregnancy, I’m 15 weeks and feeling baby move at least once daily. It started last week at 14 weeks.

frenchtoast22 · January 2022

I am at 16 weeks, first pregnancy and started to feel baby move for the first time on New Years Eve🧡 so at 15w2d. Now I can feel baby move at least once per day.
What did it feel like for you the first time baby moved ?

knottieaeac7b327c96979d · January 2022

Im almost certain i felt the first flutter around 14/15 weeks. Im 17 weeks now and i can feel every small movement. Everytime we tried to get his heartrate checked he was tossing and turning the entire time so we know hes very active when hes awake.

wombom · January 2022

15 weeks I thought it was gas and 16 weeks I read it’s when I would start feeling it, so I was actually aware of it

Knottie1457127745 · January 2022

I became aware of little flutters right around 14 weeks, and every place I read said it was most likely just gas because the baby is too small to feel. But this baby has measured larger than average for the entire pregnancy, and I am very in tune with my body this time around. Today at 22 weeks, I can already watch him with my eyes as he twists around and he occasionally jabs hard enough I will actually pee a little. Strong little guy.
I lost my first few pregnancies before I ever was aware of feeling their movements. My daughter was difficult, she was virtually still until I was about 22 weeks, and she was always pretty still (until birth, hahaha).

turtletaylor0522 · January 2022

I didn’t feel a thing until 19 weeks. Started feeling flutters. Right at the 20 week mark I started feeling him move regularly, now at 22 weeks I feel him all day.

knottie196f7146375b2294 · January 2022

I felt him moving just a couple times throughout the day right around 20 weeks. I'm 24w now and feel him all day. He especially perks up at dinnertime after a few bites of warm food!

mamamarthaof2 · January 2022

Flutters at 16 and more bigger kicks at 18. Im 19 right now and I could actually feel them on the outside but it more than likely a head or a butt lol. Their feet are still tiny and kicking my bladder today lol.

knottie2f7a468460fec930 · January 2022

18 weeks

knottie09dff8e1a72d547f · February 2022

I have an anterior placenta so I started feeling my baby around 22 weeks.

knottie15e967b74bceb332 · February 2022

I'll be 18 weeks tomorrow but I've been feeling baby move for about a week or two now though it's hard to feel sometimes unless im focusing on it, still don't know where the placenta is placed but I believe it's an anterior placement, I'm also small and skinny so that could be a factor for me as well.

inthewoods23 · February 2022

I started feeling hints of movement between 15-16 weeks while being very still laying down with my hand gently below my belly button. DH can feel him too but usually when he does I can't also feel it. I'm 18 weeks now and feel the softest little pokes here and there when sitting around. Nothing super strong yet, but I feel little things throughout the day.

mrsweirdcutie · February 2022

I started noticing some occasional movement between week 16-17. I'm 19 weeks, this is my 2nd and can feel very distinct movement. Especially at night.

greerbear · February 2022

first pregnancy, i felt her move at 20 weeks

suzycupcake · February 2022

I can't remember exactly, maybe 18 or 19 weeks. I felt him stomp straight down on my uterus. For the longest time after birth, about a year or so, he kicked his legs straight down to stretch them out during various times. We called him stretchy guy and I wonder if that's what he was doing in my uterus.

babypm22 · March 2022

I was feeling hints of it between 14-17wks? But nothing definite to say it was the baby. So it could be gas bubbles or cramp. But on my 19th week, (which was just last week) is when baby started making its movement known. 100% the baby this time for sure. And since that day its been active every single day. I feel it constantly moving inside especially when I rest my hands just below the bellybutton. Most times baby is on my right side. Baby is active and strong! Its moving as I'm typing this lol its been doing this for the past couple hours that I'm starting to wonder if normal for baby to be moving this much lol

knottiefe446964913a7e07 · March 2022

Im currently 19 weeks and this is my second pregnancy. I felt my little peach move at about 14 weeks.

claudialeja13 · March 2022

I am 19 weeks and felt movement at 18 weeks. This is my first pregnancy.

wanderlust218 · March 2022

Random flutters and the occasional “stomach flip” type feeling every couple days starting at 13 weeks and now at 15w5d I feel little taps and flips throughout the day.

miss_jackie93 · March 2022

Me too!

binxybaby · March 2022

13 with my first and 15 with my second. My second is not as big a kicker as his older brother lol (who still routinely kicks me)

starsaligned13 · March 2022

This is my first pregnancy and I felt the “flutter” at 16 weeks but then didn’t start feeling real movement until exactly 19 weeks. It’s the most amazing feeling and the best part of my day!

chelleau · March 2022

This is my first pregnancy and I just started feeling the tiniest little flutters and kicks at 16 weeks. It’s like the tiniest poke or flick from the inside. I have an anterior placenta, so this is extremely abnormal, but exciting! My husband is a physician and felt a tiny one today!!

bird_lady · March 2022

I didn’t see this thread! I just posted this question on the great big questions thread. Lol

Never felt a baby before, this one is my first, and I think I am starting to feel her now at 15 weeks. Started up a bit last week though but I wasn’t sure then. It’s definitely flutters and like I dunno something swimming in there lol it’s a trip!

Every time I sneeze she moves haha when we did our last US at 13 weeks she was moving so much! Tech said that it was good she’s moving a lot already.

iggy22 · March 2022

I felt my first at 16 weeks and now started to feel my second at 13 weeks. Almost at 15 weeks now and I’m blown away by how strong I’m feeling him (not nearly as strong as 3rd trimester).
My daughter stayed very low my entire pregnancy. I had zero relief from frequent urinations, in fact it only got worse. The same thing seems to be happening with this little guy too. I think that’s partially why I’ve felt him so early.

Knottieff3718e5e1fc3419 · March 2022

19 weeks today w twins & haven’t felt what I think is them yet. Lots of movement in there but hard to tell if it’s gas or babies

knottie1a2ae4f62c410c36 · May 2022

16 weeks I knew for sure it was my little guy. I'm 23 weeks and he's extremely active, last night my husband was rubbing my belly in circles and everytime he touch a certain part the baby kicks him, he did it like 20 times in a row, silly baby!

aggie1011 · May 2022

Second pregnancy and have been feeling sporadic movements since 14 weeks. 15 weeks 3 days now. I was 16 weeks before I felt movements with my first.

tpeci · May 2022

With my first around 22 weeks and nothing regular before 24 weeks (had anterior placenta as well). With this one, I still have anterior placenta but have felt baby on off at 14 & 15 weeks and now feel him about once a day (16+ weeks). It's really different for everyone and also depends on if it's your first or more!

candaceokin · May 2022

I felt movement in week 17, this is my second pregnancy!

nikkib-94 · June 2022

I started feeling little pokes and kicks around 13 weeks! I thought it was just gas but I spoke to my midwife and she booked me in for an ultrasound and I was able to see them moving and feeling it at the same time, kind of freaky since this is my first but so exciting!

rmccarther · June 2022

With my daughter (first baby) - 16 weeks! This baby is way less active, but I felt him move for sure around 10 weeks, and now at 15 weeks I am feeling a lot more movement, and my husband was able to feel him rolling around from the outside! So cool.

manta_ray · June 2022

This is my first pregnancy, and I just started feeling my son move at 18wks!

ravenhairedgirl83 · June 2022

First pregnancy, 18 weeks, I don't think I have felt what I can confidently say is baby. It's probably something much less glamorous like gas or digestion.

I look forward to the day though!
