Movement

I was wondering what's the earliest you can feel your little move? I'm a first time mommy so I don't know. I've been having little fluttering sensations & life nudges occasionally, & I was wondering if it could be my baby already. I know for sure that it isn't gas or bloating because I know all to well what that feels like & this feeling is different. I know most people don't feel them move until they're apprx 17wks, but I'll be 14wks tomorrow. Thanks :)

I asked my doctor and ultrasound tech the same question.. they told me 14 weeks is way too early and there is no way I could feel the baby that early.  I also thought it wasn't gas.. but it def was gas lol BC I didn't actually feel my little one until I was 18 weeks. They said the baby is way too small...

I'm a ftm and felt my baby move at 15 weeks (full fledged kicks) and by 17 weeks I could see and feel her kick from the outside of my stomach! So, I think you probably are feeling your baby :)

I felt my first movement at 16 weeks, and then I started to really feel her move at 17 weeks. But I've heard if your real petite you can feel them move earlier. It's different for everyone. But when they move you will definitely know, cause they will usually do it multiply times:) good luck, and congrats!

Wow, I didn't read the part where you said it isn't gas. Lol, every body is different. So it might be the little one!

It usually takes longer to feel it if it's your first baby. It might be gas? But if you think it's the baby, than that's awesome :)
