Movements

Have any of you new mommys felt any baby movement already? I keep feeling a little pressure then a butterfly sensation in my lower tummy/pelvic area! Is this maybe the baby? Anyone else felt this? All your help will be GREAT! I'm new at this!

The first movements are harder to detect in your first pregnancy. I remember scouring the internet all day to find out when and what it would feel like. Butterfly wings, goldfish swimming, bubbles popping...these are all descriptions I found. The movement you feel now won't be consistent yet since LO is still so small. Give it time, soon you won't be able to sleep because of knees in your ribs!

I think I felt something during my 13th week, but haven't felt the same fluttering feeling since (now in my 15th week). This is my first pregnancy though so I may have been imagining things! I can't wait to feel the baby move again!

I started to feel movements about my 12th week . It always kinda throws me off but I love this time when movements start bacause it is usally when ultra sounds are far apart and you wonder how things are going in there and the movements can be very reassuring.

Thank you! It's just a flutter sensation that I felt too I feel it about once a day now! It's my first pregnancy so I'm not really sure but I don't recall feeling it before but maybe I'm just anxious to feel something! I think it's too early to feel like kicks or elbows! But maybe this is somethin!!

I felt it about a week ago, just the once it was just a flutter but this number 3 for me , I know it was the baby . its still kind of early to feel regular movement but it is possible especially if your more on the slim side or have had a previous pregnancy or two. Good luck and have a happy pregnancy
