I'm 17 weeks&3 days with my baby.& I first started feeling "flutters" at like 15 weeks.. Now that I'm 17 weeks they feel like very light kicks.(: everyone is different tho.

I'm 19 weeks and 2 days with my first baby! :) I think I felt her moving right around 18 weeks and 3 days.. but I'm not 100% sure. It almost feels like a muscle twitch.. sometimes it happens for like 5 minutes! Other times it's just a couple flicks! (feels like someone flicking my skin from the inside near my waist line!) Is this my baby moving? Or just muscle twitches?

No its not to early, but you may not feel anything depending on where the placenta is. Also even with a second baby you may not feel anything till 20 weeks and be happy, because once you start feeling it, it gets harder and harder to the point where u feel like the baby just broke or cracked a rib.... im on my second as well and i am in my final 2 weeks! And i feel like my pelvic bone has split in two.
