    Hi, I'm Amanda and this is the first time I've posted. I'm 17 weeks now with my first pregnancy, and I felt little flutters at about 14 weeks...but wasn't sure that it was definitely the baby. At 16 weeks, there was no question about it....there was definite tiny kicks.

    I felt something that definitely wasn't coming from my stomach around wk 13. It was like a huge movement, almost a jump and I wondered if it could possibly be the baby this early. I had read everywhere that for first timers it's not normal to feel movements that early. Anyhow I talked about it to friends who have been pregnant and described it and what it was like and everyone assured me that It couldn't have been anything else than the baby.
    Then last night (I'm now 14.5) my husband put his hand low on my bump where the baby should be and I felt a kick from the inside directed toward his hand... he couldn't obviously feel it. I think we have a little tempered baby in there... or an acrobat of some sort. Maybe it's like it's mom, I'm not still much of the time!

    Last Wednesday night I felt a little flutter something like I've never felt before at the lower part of my tummy in the middle right close to the skin sort out like a mobile vibrating or bubbles popping I was 16 weeks and 6 days then. I've felt the movement on and off usually every other day or so since I can't wait till the movements get more frequent it's reassuring when you can feel something as you know everything is still going as it should be !

    With DS i felt him at 16w. It was like fluttering in my tummy. With #2 i felt this baby at 15 weeks. Im 17w now and it goes from little taps, to like tickling me from the inside. Cheeky baby i think! I cant wait for harder kicks!

    14 weeks

    Hi everyone!

    I have no idea what it is I'm feeling, and not pessamistic enough to think that bub is kicking yet, but I had a feeling today of butterflies - I said to my boss that I was feeling anxious without having any reason to be and I have felt my heartbeat almost pumping out of myself (if that makes any sense at all!!), because I pooh-poohed any thought of baby movement, thinking it was too early.

    Any thoughts??

    Thanks for all the ongoing support and advice,

    Beck

    I am 14 weeks and have started getting funny feelings like swooshing movements inside of me.. when it happens I feel a bit sick though... I'm wondering if it is baby moving?

    ooooer looks like everyone is getting flutters too yay!

    last week i got home early and when my partner got home i rushed to the door bouncing and v happy to see him - after that i felt some serious flat out movement ... like muscle flinches/ flutters for about 30 mins like the baby was super excited daddy was home too LOL. it was so lovely but after awhile it was like 'stop!' cos it's like nothing i'd ever felt before.

    can't wait to get a proper kick that my partner can feel

    belly rubs for all

    Hi,

    I was just saying to my Aunt this afternoon, I'm feeling butterflies in my tummy like I'm nervous or something and she said that was the baby moving .

    WOW is all I can say. It's quite strange but nice too. Oh I'm 14w

    I'm 13 weeks and I occasionally feel the little bubbles, a couple of times I've felt something harder, kind of like a muscle twitch, but I'm not too sure whether that's the baby moving or if it's something else.

    Movements

    Ladies, I'm 16 weeks 2 days, and am having an assortment of "feelings" as have you all. But I seem to be getting some quite high up where, I assume, my organs have all been pushed. Would this be a little foot perhaps, or is it more likely just to be organs and accumulated wind! Its most noticeable when I bend over or move in a certain way. I didn't think I would feel anything up high just yet, but just wondered if anyone else had had this sort of feeling. Its almost like a slippery feeling. If anyone could shed some light, I'd be most grateful. If it is baby movement, I'm all for getting excited. We've had three m/c prior to this pregnancy, so tend to be holding back a little.
