little pokes?

Im 18 + 5 for the last week or so I occationally get little poke feelings in the same spot in my lower abdomen on the right side. Is this the first movement? Moat people tend to feel flutters and the baby is still so little, but it deffinatly feels strange!

Yes! That's how they start, it feels like their poking you with their finger when its their little tiny foot

Its definitely baby!! I also felt pokes or kicks. I'm a ftm and 18+3. I never felt flutters. Its an amazing feeling to feel my baby in there! (=

Its quite possible that it is movement, I only felt flutters twice and then it was on to pokes and jabs.  If it isn't it could be your muscles contracting and growing.

It sounds like its your baby I'm 18w 1d and have had movement for weeks and sometimes it feels like pokes so I would say its most likely your lil one :) congrats :)
