    Talking Early movements!

    I am currently 15 weeks with my second baby and can't believe that I can feel movements already! I felt flutters about 2 weeks ago but last night I really felt the baby going nuts! Actual kicks! I guess I am surprised cause I didn't feel DD until I was 28 weeks with her!

    Anyone else feel them this early?

    Oh I'm so jealous!! You lucky thing

    I think I've felt bubs but I can't be 100% sure yet. I keep hoping each morning when I wake up that bubs might have risen first and will give me some sort of indication that it's awake but no such luck yet.

    What an amazing thing though, feeling our little bubbas move in there.

    I first felt my baby at about 19wks.

    Apparently you feel them much earlier if its 2nd, or 3rd pregnancy

    Oh that is just so nice! I'm REALLY looking forward to knowing for sure that bubs has made its presence known Fingers crossed I don't have too long to wait.

    Congrats again on feeling some movement!!

    Not always the case - I felt DS at 16 weeks because my placenta was towards the back. I didn't feel DD until around 23 weeks because my placenta was anterior.

    Yep, I felt this one the first time between 14 and 15 weeks With DD I felt her at about 16 weeks for the first time, didn't realise it at the time must have thought it was wind or something LOL

    Its so exciting isn't it?

    i have a posterior placenta and first felt bubba wiggles at 9.5 weeks (kinda thought i was insane at the time cos it was so early) - have felt consistent movement ever since though so i know it was real.

    i have a rather sensitive uterus though - i doubled over in pain at each implantation! doesn't bode well for a nice comfy labour...
