15 weeks and my stomache is moving?

[Worried373]

Hi, im pregnant with my second child, he/she isnt due until 19th March im around 14-15 weeks.. im laying here on the sofa and my stomache area keeps pulsing - i cant really explain it - i wont lie it feels lik a kick and my stomache area is moving up and down for about 5 or 6 times then stops - there is no regular pattern,,, what is this??? surely its way too early to 'see' and feel to that extent any kind of movement from the baby, but it feels stronger than a pulse and its not a 'constant' im a bit worried.. any advice please?? if i lift my top my belly area and above my belly button looks like its moving around its weird!

im 20 weeks and 3 days with my first and felt my first movements at 15 weeks too, i wasnt sure at first but now i know for definate it was now hes kicking his little heart out and im loving every second of it!

hey, if you are 15 weeks and feeling it above or on your belly button its unlikely to be kicks because your uterus isnt that high at 15 weeks its still quite low down in your stomach, proberley an inch or so above your pubic bone, im not saying it isnt but in my experience thats just what i was thinking, howvever if it is lower doen than the belly button area then it could be kicks as i felt my 3rd baby movements at 14 weeks, good luck anyway xx

I know EXACTLY what you mean about worrying that everything is ok. Before I could feel her moving around every day I would sometimes randomly wonder and worry that she was doing okay and still alive and healthy. But wow once the movements start everything becomes So much more real just like you said, it's when I started to actually feel pregnant and it still makes me smile most of the time when she kicks. Oh, and also after the movements started my pregnancy has been going a lot faster I think simply because it's not as boring and I get little rewards and reminders shes doing great every day. Its just going so much faster than when I was puking every day and feeling like cr@p!

And yea we found out at 16 weeks we're having a little girl and we're naming her Emma =)  The last month has gone so quick I'm kinda scared the rest of this pregnancy is going to fly right by me and I'll end up with my baby before I'm ready! I can't believe I'm already 1/2 done though, it's amazing =D

I am due just two days after you (March 17th :-) ) and I am 15 weeks.... and I swear from time to time (very infrequent) i can feel the baby moving.... once it was even just hard enough for hubby to place his hand on my stomach and feel the little bump and it does not feel like gas....this is my second pregnancy and from what i can remember that is what it felt like to feel baby move! So its very possible that it could be your little one saying hi!

Thanks so much :) Im pretty sure its what I felt - and its made me smile from ear to ear - it makes it all real ... you worry so much hoping that everything is ok, not only that sometimes the days can drag and you still have such a long time to go - its just lovely getting to the next stage you know?  Congratulations to you by the way, I take it you found out your having a little girl? myself and my boyf will be finding out at our 20 week scan :) -  thanks heaps for your feedback :)

It could be movements I think because Im pregnant ith my first and had NO idea what the kicks would feel like but I felt them in when I was 15 weeks pregnant and over the course of a few days just from paying attention to what i was feeling I knew for sure. And of course I ended up being right because now shes so much stronger and kicks so much and it was definitely kicks i was feeling. Everyone is different but i have heard of many women feeling kicks at 15-16 weeks along.

lol, I thought that but it wasnt like a popping feeling inside - it felt like it did with my first - but way too soon, thats whats confused me?  I just wondered if that was atall possible to feel anything like that so soon?

Maybe you have bad gas?
