Stomach fluttering

I'm only about 11 weeks pregnant and i wanna know why i've been experiencing for the last three days some fluttering in my stomach and i'm wondering am i crazy? Or is this normal? Or could i be farther along than what i expected? I'm starting to doubt exactly how far along i am. I have an appt. with the ob soon but i'm very curious now!

If this is your first, you might, but its unlikely. Air bubbles and the first flutterings of the baby are often confused because they feel so similar. First time mothers will generally start to feel movement from 16 weeks up, depending on the position of th placenta. (but don't be alarmed if it takes longer to feel baby. Some take as long as 24 weeks before they feel anything) a lot plays into it, such as body shape, weight, and position of baby and placenta. If this is your second or more, then its possible you could be, though even some second or third pregnancies don't feel it till later on as well.
