    it feels like you have a gurgling stomach, something babling inside, a few flicks on the side It's very enjoyable. I think I first fellt it when Im 18-19 weeks. It is my first baby, so I am confused whether it is my stomach or it's my baby moving

    Hi All,

    I am 23 Weeks now (Almost 24) with my first.
    I can't feel anything, or at least I can't tell the difference
    People say you can usually tell the difference, I can't!
    I had lunch with a friend today and she is a week ahead of me and said she felt flutters from about 18 weeks
    and now was feeling proper kicks

    I had has scans and everything is fine but when some many people feel something and I don't it can be unsettling....
    Any thoughts???

    Vianna, My OB always said that first time mum's may not feel movement up until 25 weeks. You can always talk to your OB if you're worried.

    I felt DD at 17 weeks (only if I layed on my tummy) and then by 20 weeks it was kicks. DH felt her kick him at 20 weeks.

    With Beez, I've thought I felt him for about a week, but I can definately feel him now. It feels like he's rolling or pushing out. Occationally I'll feel a 'pop'.
    I'm 13+4w

    I felt my baby move on 21 June 2004. I was 16 weeks 2 days pregnant. It caught me by surprise! I was like "what on earth..." it took me a few days to realise what it actually was!!

    This time around 13 weeks along. I woke up thinking someone was tapping on my belly, I laid there for a minute just smiling and feeling and then thought of hubby and called for him, even he felt them but couldn't believe it could do that all ready.

    The first pregnancy I felt kicking at 19 weeks and hubby didn't feel it until week 21.

    baby kicks

    I first felt my baby kick/move at around 14 weeks (a little over I think). This is my first pregnancy. It felt like little bubbles running across my tummy. It was amazing. It was the first time I KNEW for sure I felt it, previous to that I thought maybe I had felt it.... I am now 19 weeks and I can feel the kicks and the pushes.... My husband felt an arm/leg sticking out a week ago and two or three nights ago he felt it move away from his touch. He is looking forward to being able to feel it more often. I am happy to be able to share the movements with him finally.

    First real kick against my hand felt from outside only at 20 weeks. Inside sensations still feel more like something turning or twisting inside rather than kicks.
    Anterior placenta I should probably add.

    Yay, first movement yesterday at 19 weeks 1 day...hadn't been feeling any of the fluttery or bubbly things that people talk about (or maybe I was but didn't know it) then yesterday had big bulge just next to my belly button, like a back or a bum, and some definite wiggling around that could be felt from the outside. What an amazing sensation!

    The earliest I felt a proper kick was around week 19. I was asleep, and having one of those nightmares where you are paralysed in terror and can't wake up, and then I felt kick and fluttering movement, and it was strong enough to bring me out of my nightmare, and then he did it one more time whilst I was awake(almost like he was reassuring me it was real!!) It was so cool....

    From what have been told Nae hasn't felt baby kick yet? Should this be a concern at 18wks. As it seems most ppl start to feel the kick from 15-17wks from looks of this forum..

    Concerned firsttimedad :-k :-k

    I think I have been getting a kick each day for the last 3-4 days. Just one a day, sometimes morning, sometimes at night...

    Can't wait for more
