There is no way to describe the feeling.. Everyone always told me it feels like butterflies or flutters. To me that is not a good way to describe it all. It feels nothing like that. I am 25 weeks and started feeling her around 19 to 20 weeks. When you do you will definitely know because it is a feeling you have never felt before. Good luck :)

I felt mine from 19weeks. It is strange but amazing to feel it.  :)  
My husband felt the movement last week for the first time I was 22weeks.

I will be 24 weeks on Monday and I am loving every min of being pregnant.  X

My first kick felt like I was being thumped from the inside. I was 18 weeks. Another way I could describe my early kicks is like a spasm, but with no root to me.

I felt my first when I was 19 weeks but only when I drank water or milk.. It felt like a little thump or a little flutter, then as I got bigger they were stronger thumps..

At 19 weeks my baby would do somersaults.  I felt him very low in my pelvic are. Just felt like little flips, like when you go down a hill on a roller coaster.

It always felt like a muscle twinge to me. I can't remember if I felt him at 19 weeks though.

It depends how far along you are and how big baby is. Once he/she is big enough there will be no mistaking the movements.  Early on its like gas bubbles

Gas or butterflies in your stomach and as you get farther you can actually see it going across your stomach or sticking out. How far along are you?
