i am 19 weeks now and i've been feeling my baby since around 14 weeks and this is my first baby. I think it might have to do with the fact that my uterus is retroverted. I kind of jumped right into distinct nudges and kicks and pokes. Although, i will add that when i'm lying down and the baby it rolling over, it kind of feels like a pressure/stretching
Lol. at sixteen wks to feel bub at the ribs, then by 30 wk my boy would be in my ears!
NAh hun your uterus is much lower then belly button. And baby movement isnt pressure. The pressure your feeling (that HIGH) is definatly GAS.
If someones pregnant with twins, they could very well be feeling the babies at the lower part of the stomach or bottom rib. Remember with twins your uterus is 3 to 4 weeks ahead of someone with a singleton. And, it's also possible not to be knowledgeable of having twins to until your 16th to 20th week by ultrasound. One of my friends went her whole birth believing she only had one little bean in there, turns out there was two though when she gave birth! What a surprise! But, in truth you would feel much more rest assured if you were to ask your doctor or OB/GYN about your concerns and questions. :))
im 17 weeks and only once i felt an actual bump bump bump down near my pelvic bone..baby is still down in that region..i have felt a few flutters here and there..i cant wait for the big kicks to come!! its much more reassuring that way :)
Fetal movements are usually first felt between around 16-20 weeks, although this can vary from woman to woman. At first this feels like a gentle fluttering, and women can often mistake it for 'wind'. As the pregnancy progresses, these movements become stronger and kicks can be felt.
First-time mums often feel movements later as they are less sure what to expect. Also women who are very active may miss the subtle feelings of early movement.
If I'm not mistaken, the baby doesn't reach the belly button until around 20 wks. I'm not sure that you would feel the baby in your ribs at 16wks.
i to am right over sixteen weeks and i do feel my baby moving right at the bottom part of my stomach. it feels like a little worm wiggling about. sometimes i think i feel him kicking but that might be gas since he is really small. i have been pregnant several times before. i heared more experienced can feel their baby moving faster. i hope this kind of helps you out. sincerly, runningresa
