attention first time moms! when did u first feel your baby move? i am just now 15 wks and wonder if i may be able to feel baby move soon if i pay close attention.



bambina2come - 118 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I felt my daughter move at seventeen weeks, I felt her kick at twenty two weeks, hope that helps. Good luck :D

madformilton - 118 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) i first felt at 13 weeks - it was late at night and i was laying upright (because my nose was so stuffed) at first I only felt it late at night and if I was flat on my back with my hand over it. it was that bubble feeling and then a kick! at first the only way i knew it was the baby was because i didn't toot right after. :)

monica9 - 118 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I didn't feel my baby until 22 weeks.

karenc - 118 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) my placenta was in front and that can make it harder to feel movement until later weeks. I felt my baby move definitively at 18 weeks -- basically, I could tell there was no way it was anything but the baby!

baby.bray - 118 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I felt my baby move at 17 weeks and 2 days - but I am told that if it is not your first pregnancy sometimes you can feel it sooner x its amazing and well worth the wait to feel those first delicate flutters x

Mommyof2boys - 118 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) If you are expecting your first baby you can expect to feel your baby for the first time between 18 and 24 weeks gestation. If this is not your first baby you can expect to feel your baby a bit sooner than you felt your first. This is usually said to happen because you know what you're feeling for and your uterus is more stretched out than it was the first time around.

BrookeAmber - 119 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I am 19 weeks and just in the past couple days have been feeling my baby move. I thought I felt it before.. but now I know forsure because it feels different than anything I've ever felt.

professorpreggers - 119 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) at 15 weeks I swore I could feel what I would describe as tiny bubbles way down in my uterus. At 16-17 weeks the flutters started--every so faintly. But then, at 18 weeks I couldn't feel a thing (don't freak out like I did) I went for a sono at 18 weeks and the baby was kicking like a madman, he just wasn't bumping into my uterus yet. Now, at 21 one weeks the thumping has started but it's intermittent and varies in intensity.

Rebekahs-mama - 119 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I think I was around 15-16 weeks but it was super duper light (almost more butterflies in my tummy :) I don't think they were good hard kicks until 20 weeks or so! I used to have something to eat and then lay really still in bed. My daughter would inevitably wake up and start dancing around! Good luck and congrats to you!

fabeebabee - 119 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) It was right around 20 weeks for me. I hope you start feeling those twitches soon. It's so fun!

jodiie - 119 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) i was 17 weeks when i first felt the butterflys but they wasnt frequent now im 19 weeks i dont feel anything! just gas lol!! havent felt no kicking or anything though and dont plan on it for awhile yet x

JennSever - 119 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) probably not...i didn't feel movement w/ my 1st until closer to 20 wks..itty bitty girl! but as i have had more its been significantly earlier. w/ my 4th is was 14 wks.

mommy537743 - 119 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) this is my first...i started feeling the butterflies at 18 weeks but he kicks alot more now, im 22 weeks sometimes i watch my tummy lump up its awsome

2xmom - 119 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) With my first it was at 18weeks. With my second it was at 15 weeks. So fun!!

tsj824 - 119 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) Between 17 & 18 weeks for me. Everyone is different though. Hope you feel it soon. It's sooo amazing.

christina1984 - 119 days ago Rating: 2 (1 votes) i didnt with my 1st til much later only with this one did i feel it at 12 wks. it is very possible tho. they say if u are very slender or in tune with ur body that u can feel ur baby move early. pay attention for flutters and little bubbly feelings and things that may feel like gas.

Baby3OnWay - 119 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) closer to 20-22 weeks with my first! Where your placenta is located can have an effect as well! Best wishes and congrats
