- Help New mommie in town

Okay , I have Alot of questions that need to be answered. Why is it that most women  during their first pregnacy dont show at 16weeks and so on ? Now my other question is a bit hard to explain Im 19 weeks and 6days and i can not tell if what im feeling is my baby boy . Sometimes when im lying down and the father talks to my stomach i get this lil pressure that moves in front of my stomach that makes it feel really hard . and you can tell because it sticks out like if it was a knot . So my question is (IS THAT MY BABy ?) Sorry for the long paragraph.

I started feeling my baby move at 18 weeks and i also started showing at 18 weeks aswell, this is my first pregnancy too. And that definately could be your baby moving, it is very posible.

I didn't start showing until 20 weeks. I guess its all depends on how bubs is positioned.  Also some women have very toned abdomen muscles and it takes them longer to show. I felt movement around 18 weeks. They feel like little pop like movements.
So it could be your bubs or it can be Braxton Hicks. Some women experience them as early as 16 weeks :)
hope this helps
