Baby movement or gas???

So this will be my 3rd full term but 5th pregnancy and i think im feeling baby at times. Yes i know i may sound crazy since im only 10 weeks but still. I only feel it when im sitting up but have been getting the same feeling for 3 days now. It feels like something flipped over inside right behind my belly button or right below it at times. I dont feel gassy after or have to go to the loo.

It definitely could be your baby.  I felt my first baby once at 10-11 weeks and then again maybe a week or so later.  Didn't feel him regularly for another few weeks.  But, with this pregnancy, I felt her a little earlier than with my son.  :-)  I know it was my baby that early because it was totally different than anything else I had felt before - it was like a brief butterfly flutter.

It could be baby movement. The more pregnancies you have had, the earlier you will feel baby movement. I am very aware of my body and frequently have had gas bubbles when not pregnant...so I know the difference :) I've had some flutters since about week 10 or so...I am now 15 weeks and feel it more often...particularly if I have a full bladder! I keep telling Baby is if not a water bed to bounce on! I still can't feel it from outside though...

With my second child I felt movement at about 3 months (so 12 weeks-ish). I had a loooong commute to work at the time and Baby and I spent a lot of time communing while stopped in traffic. I definitely felt him moving...it wasn't gas :)

Sorry it's probably gas. I'm about 20 weeks and my uterus is just now getting to my belly button.

It's too high to be behind the belly button. Your uterus hasn't even gotten above your pelvic bone yet. Anything you would feel is going to be super low. I imagine it is possible to be baby, it's just doubtful it would be that high already.
