I started feeling my lil boy around 16 weeks, but the first big kick happened at 19 weeks. you could be feeling her any day now! The best way to feel her is by laying on your back. Its hard to notice them moving that early if your up and moving around. Congratulations!

It could be her moving around. At 18 weeks your baby still has a lot of wiggle room, so it might her practicing her swimming routine lol.

usually it is when you are laying down and are still that you do feel them at the begining so it is most likely baby :)

You may feel your baby kick sooner than that. There's women on here who felt their first kick anywhere from 16-25 weeks. It just all depends on your body, and your baby. The first movement I felt from the baby was at about either 21 or 22 weeks and it was like she was on the inside of my tummy tickling me (doctor said it was a flutter). I would laugh every time I felt it. then one day she just hauled off and kicked me.

Everyone feels at a different time. I felt my little girl's first kick at about 23-24 weeks.
