This is the second time...

...and now I am sure.  As this is my 3rd pregnancy I know what to look for and I am sure I felt my baby kick !!!  I am almost 16 weeks (so it seems a bit early) and I doubted it the first time I felt it.  But now I am sure.  Anyone else felt it yet?

i am just 13 weeks today, and the last couple days i could have sworn i felt the baby flipping around.  i dont know.  could be imagination but i KNOW what gas feels like.  this is going to be my 4th child and is my 6th pregnancy.  i lost 2 in 2nd trimester several years ago.  (but never felt movements from either of them....one was a premature rupture of membranes at 20 weeks with induction at 22weeks...and the other died in utero at 16weeks and i was induced at 20 weeks) my youngest son i felt between 14-16 weeks so i guess this is possible..idk but am hoping that it is movements and not my mind playing tricks on me.

Well if it's your first baby you might be a little later on, somthing to do with your uterus. After you have children your uterus is positioned slightly different to where you feel it sonner. When you feel it you will know, the flutters (quickening) you will probly start feeling by 15 or 16 weeks for sure kicks probly a little later, and poor DH will have to wait even longer, the baby is just to small for everyone else to feel, just us, my poor hubby is so jealous.

This is my first baby, but two days ago I was laying flat on my couch for a while and thought I felt something that could be the baby moving.  It felt like butterflies which is what everyone tells me it feels like, but I just thought it was my nerves or something.  I'm wondering how long it will take before I'm absolutely sure it's the baby and not my imagination.

How exciting!  I'm 14w4d today and I thought I felt something last night...little bubbles, but it could have been gas, haha!  I can't wait until I know for sure.
