First kick/flutter today!

[Shar10]

I'm 17 weeks, 2 days today and just had my Dr apt this morning.  (Heart rate 156) Once I got back to work this morning I was just sitting here and suddenly felt the first flutter. :)  I wish it would do it again!

Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend!

I am 19 weeks pregnant with my 8th and still not sure I have felt the baby. I have thought I have a few times, but not enough to be positive thats what it really was. I do have some extra padding on my tummy from 8 pregnancies though--LOL---so hopefully baby just has to be be a little bigger and kick harder for me to feel it thru the fat. ha ha ha
I've felt a little worried but then remind myself there is a broad range of normal for the first fluttering--from 13 to 25 weeks is what I read on the internet. So I am well within the normal time frame.

I'm 17 1/2 weeks and I felt a nice flutter while sitting at my desk at work on Monday. I have felt it a few times in the past week, but usually when lying down in bed at night. It was my first "afternoon" flutter sitting up! It def. put a big smile on my face at the office! I can't wait for real kicks that DH can feel too! So exciting. I'm so happy for everyone (this is so exciting!)

--- and for waiting21, I didn't feel any flutters until the end of my 16 weeks. I actually posted at 16 weeks 1 day complaining of no flutters!! Ha Ha. Hopefully you'll feel it soon! Keep us posted!

i am 20 weeks today, and i THINK that i have felt a few movements over the last couple of weeks, more stretches and such. but this morning before getting out of bed, i definately felt 3 thumps on the same side, within seconds of each other. i could feel it from outside too, so i am definately more reassured.  i hope it continues daily now....lol

I want to feel the fultter!  I am 16 weeks 1 day.  My friend said she didn't feel anything until 22 weeks!  I don't want to wait that long!

that is how I confirmed my first kicks too!  I was at the dr. (13 w 6 days) and as the dr. had the u/s wand on my belly - I got a swift kick!  I wasn't looking at the screen and I jumped a little.  He laughed and said that he just saw me get kicked.  It is happening everyday now and that gives me some reassurance!  What a great feeling....
