    Oh wow, was that the little bun moving??

    So, tomorrow I will be 15 weeks and for the past 2 days I seem to be getting the same feelings in my tum!

    I keep convincing myself that I am too early, and it's my first pregnancy so I am probably making it up, but....

    The feeling is like a gas bubble, but without the rumblings, and its always in the same place! I lay in bed this morning paying a bit more attention and even now, sitting on the couch it is still there!

    I am still getting a heap of actual gas bubbles and a loud talking tummy, but this little one seems different!

    Am I crazy or have others felt similar things?

    Oooh, I hope it is the bun!

    could be!!! I always described my early ones as 'muscle twitches' but looking back, it was a bit like a bubble in the side for me ... cute little bubba bubbles....

    yay!

    I felt my first movements at 14 weeks. It wasn't a bubble type feeling it was a definate little poke. It kept repeating in the same spot and I knew that it was definately baby. I also have an anterior placenta so I think I was able to feel movement much earlier than some.

    It's a beautiful feeling isn't it!

    I would describe DS as butterflies, he was constantly on the move and those limbs were always flapping away even at 15 weeks, but DD was pokes and she wasn't as active and I didn't feel her until 22 weeks. I think they all feel different with every bub, because each bub moves in a different way depending upon their personality.

    The first movements I felt were exactly how you described, and I felt them at about 14 weeks. It was my first pregnancy as well, so its not too early for you!

    I've been feeling the same things but thought I needed to fart at first but once I felt it the 2nd 3rd on so forth time I realised it was the same feeling and it was in the same spot so it must be the bubba!

    It is exciting Cant wait to feel those full on movements too!

    I started getting feelings at 14 weeks like little flutters, almost like there was a fish jiggling in my belly.
    So exciting congrats

    How exciting is it!??

    I felt movements at 13 weeks and so many people said that it wasn't possible, but as others have said - each baby has its own personality!
    Mine felt like a bunch of worms rolling around! hahah it was the best way I could describe it.

    How exciting for you Taryn!!

    I felt little flutters early on too although I didn't actually know until later.. I explained it like the pop you would get if you blew through a straw into a glass of custard
    I think it was around 18wks or so that I actually saw the little movements from the outside when I layed on my back..

    OOH!!! Totally could be!!!

    My movements always felt like twitches... but there was NO other movements in that area of my tummy ever so I figured it was her, then they got stronger!!

    It's such a lovely feeling hey?!

    I always thought it felt like a little fishy touching its nose on the plasic bag full of water that you got to take your fish home in from the pet shop.... weird analogy but it works for me!
