When did you feel your baby

by rachie204, Jun 01, 2008 08:19PM
I am interested when those of you on your second or third pregnancies first felt your baby move.   I was around 14 weeks or so with my son which was my first pregnancy.  This is my third and I am 9 weeks and hoping to feel something a little sooner.

w/ 2nd and 3rd i felt them move around the 18 week mark if i rememebr correctly.  this time w/ my 4th i didn't feel it until after 24wks (i was freaking out!) but they saw that i ahd an anterior placenta so they said that was why.

Well, with me, this is my first, and I began getting movement not kicks around 13weeks. Then true kicks and more movment at 22.5-23weeks.

But it still can NOT be felt on the outside yet for me.

Im preggers with nimber 4 and im 20 weeks. I started feeling my lil Conner making his fluttering about 13 or 14 weeks, he is now getting to where I and everyone else can feel him from the outside. I also feel him a lot, I get more than 15 kicks and movements a day. He also has a schedule which I have learned. He wakes and moves first thing when I get up about 10 ish in the am, I get maybe 1 or 2 movements, Lunchtime he will move a little bit, maybe once durng lunch time. Then I dont feel him move for the rest of the day until about 1 or 2am which is his most active time to play.

Remember everyone and every pregnancy is different, and it also depends on where your placenta is laying on how soon you feel your little bub moving. I hope you feel him/her soon as it is the best feeling in the world!

Hi, with my first pregnancy i felt my little girl at around 16/17 weeks bu my husband couldn't feel anything until around 23 weeks.  With this pregnancy i think i am starting to feel the little bubbly/flutters.  I am now 14.3 days so not really sure if that is what i am feeling. I don'toften get the chance to sit down quitely (toddler at home) so when i do, at her nap time i  think i feel some little bubbles.  When i went for my 12 week scan the doc said i had a placenta that was more at the back or front (which ever one it is supposed to be) so i should feel movement earlier.  I have also heard that your weight has a lot to do with it as the less padding there is the earlier you will feel something.

This is my first and i started feeling LO move at 13weeks 6 days, and it was easily felt on the outside by 17 weeks. Im 28 weeks today and she is SUPER active! I was quite petite pre pregnancy and midwife says this contributed to it

this is my first to go this far and i started feeling movement inside, like a fish swimming at 21 weeks. Before that I was feeling some odd and different things but not sure if it movements as they were different.

If I remember correctly I felt my son at 22 weeks (full kick) and my daughter at around 20 weeks (full kick) I could feel her moving... not kicking at around 14 or 15 weeks. I don't remember with my son. HTH Hugs :o)
