Baby Kicking

Hey ladies I'm 18 weeks with my first pregnancy. Just wondering when did everyone feel the baby kick for the first time. All my books say I should be feeling or could. Just wanting to know how much longer I have!

It felt like it took me forever to feel my little girl move. I started to feel like i had an upset stomach around 22 weeks but week 23 i felt her kick for the first time. Now im 27 weeks and it feels like i have a ninja inside lol when shes awake she kicks about 20 times in 10 minutes. So just hold on it will come!:)

I first felt my son around 21-22 weeks.
With this one I started feeling him at around 15 weeks.  I'm 18 weeks this Sunday.

I felt movement with my 1st at 15 weeks. Just flutters. It was like a fish gently brushing my insides. I haven't really felt baby much this pregnancy. I'm 18 weeks. Anterior placenta both times.

Not to discourage but sometimes that flutter or twitch is just gas bubbles. With my first pregnancy i thought I felt it early on but turns out it was just gas. I'm now pregnant with my second and I can feel it already (16 weeks) and there is a difference. But if you're feeling early on that's great :) I didn't feel with my first baby until I was a little over 20 weeks

I'm in my 18th week now with first baby, and have felt twitching and kicking early on already (15 weeks). I suppose like everything else about pregnancy, it varies for all women?
