Baby moving...

Hey ladies so I want to ask what was your reaction/experience the first time you felt your baby move?? Im a ftm and I remember I was cooking and I felt a sudden flutter in my stomach like I had a butterfly in there and as soon as I felt it I stayed quiet lol as if I was going to scare the baby and waited to see if I felt it again luckily I did :-)

I was 17.5 weeks! I was so sad and scared cause I had just left the clinic, and I was told that I had glucose in my urine, they did the 1 hr test and I was stressing myself with it! Out of no where I felt him! It was the most amazing feeling ever, as if he was telling me that everything will be just fine!

I think everything seems unreal until you start to feel the babies first movements like ohh I have a baby in there at least thats what I felt like. now that im 31weeks and I can actually see my belly moving along with his movements I just feel soo happy and excited to meet my little one although I just laugh when its all lopsided!! Lol its cute to watch!!

I was 18w and was sitting on a couch watching TV and I felt like someone was flicking me on the inside. It was only for a couple of minutes, but I was so excited and started crying cause I was like "omg that's my baby!" I didn't feel him again until 20w and he's been a wiggle worm since!  (24w now)

The first real kick I felt moved me from where I was sitting and I was like "woah". And then the first time I SAW her moving when I was laying down, I just laughed. I thought it was so cute & funny (:
