    hey how is everyone?
    its been very quiet.
    i have a question for the girls that have felt their baby kick.
    im only 13 and 5 days but by the size of the baby from ultra sound its about 14 weeks and 5 days (dont know if that matters)
    i have been told that with the second baby you feel it move earlier than the first because you now recognise the feeling. well today i swear for about 30 mins i could feel lttle butterfly feelings but then all of a sudden there were 2 kicks and hten about 5 minutes later another one and i saw my tummy move but even if it was a kick it shouldn't be this hard yet right?
    has anyone else experienced really early kicking?
    i have also had a thing iwth my bowels in the past which my doctor says is the same kind of thing/feeling ( i think its to high up now) and was going to get it fixed but then fell pregnant and they said will have the tests/operations after the baby but havent had the feeling since ive been pregnant.
    hope this makes sense, reading it back it doesnt make any sense. lol
    anyway hope every one is well.
    Gothmum, any signs that it will all happen soon?

    i used to get gas which used to feel like strong kicks,but i wasnt pregnant lol...dunno maybe its possible although dont think they would be ard ones at this stage coz they wouldnt be that strong yet but you will be feeling alot more in the next couple weeks anyways so i wouldnt worry too much

    i agree sally how is everything going?

    Lol it was getting a bit quiet around here

    Amy, I first felt DD kick at around 22 weeks, and tbh I can't really remember how far along it was that I felt this one for the first time - probably a bit earlier as I knew what to look for, as you say, but I do know it was much longer before I had any visible tummy movements/DH could feel it because when I fell pg with DD, I was very taut and trim but hadn't lost all the baby weight and got rid of the pudge this time, so there was a bit more flesh for the kicks to filter through before they could be felt on the outside hahah

    And, this will probably sound NUTS, but I quite often felt phantom kicks all over my abdomen (as though I were carrying a well-developed bub, not a half-cooked one) the entire time between DD's birth and falling pg again!! It didn't seem to be related to things like gas or illness or anything, I think it might just have been psychological. No idea why I would feel kicking (sometimes very strong, other times just little flutters) but there you have it... have any other girls had that?? I'm probably just odd lol.

    I think all women and all pregnancies are different - for instance I started showing a bump with DD at about 8 weeks, other girls I know had smooth, flat bellies right up till about 7 months!! Just enjoy it hun, it's reassuring to feel bub kicking (or at least *think* it's bub kicking), just don't panic if you don't feel it regularly, at this stage it will be fairly sporadic so don't freak out if you don't feel it again for a week or two lol


    In other news, nah, nothing much happening with me Finally got around to washing all the new baby clothes/blankies etc today so she can make her appearance now that I'm about 90% organised hahah (everything else just involves packing my hospital bags and making sure the fridge is stocked so DH doesn't starve or live on Hungry Jack's while I'm gone lol)... every night as I'm going to bed I start getting pains but they go within an hour so nothing terribly exciting to report. Had my 'last' ante appt yesterday and doctor said she's engaged, could be tonight, could be a week from now lol I hate that there's no definite deadline on them!! This is half the reason I demanded DD be induced lol, I wanted to just KNOW when she was coming rather than waiting around for her
    So if anybody has any tips on how to get things moving along lol, I'd appreciate them

    How's everyone else doing? Any exciting plans for the weekend I need to be jealous of?

    I dont even have the slightest bump and its annoying. As for exciting plans we havent really got any... its our 2 years since we've been together tonight but we have little munchkin Layla-Jai so it will just be a quiet night. Oh and Beau isnt to happy about the fact its an aniversary and there won't be any love making ahahahaha my poor baby
    Ah the joys of being pregnant as a younger couple.
    Hows everyone doing?
    Pregnancy's going well?
