Baby movement?

Question

When do you normally start feeling your baby move?

I'm 3 months......what does it feel like? does it feel weird at first?

Answer 1

Well, you can feel a flutter at about 3 or 4 months but a kick will be around 5 or 6. If you already have kids, it'll happen sooner.

Answer 2

It all depends on the person. Most women feel the first movement of the baby around 4 months or so. I felt my son move at about 3 1/2 months. It feels like a fish that gets scared in the water and moves really fast, or like there are butterflies in there. How far along are you?

Answer 3

Feeling your baby move definitely depends on your body type, whether you've had kids before, and how in-tune with your body you actually are. I didn't feel my first baby move until I was around 5 months but I felt my second move much sooner, right around 4 months. Both of my babies felt like tiny little gas bubbles popping over and over again in my lower belly. It's one of the weirdest most gratifying experiences ever. Wait until it gets to be about 8 months and the baby starts poking little elbows knees arms hands and feet out through your skin...that will really get you excited. I've also heard a lot that drinking a glass of orange juice and then quietly laying down will help you feel the baby. The sugar in the o.j. gets the baby moving and laying still helps you feel it. Good Luck =0)

Answer 4

I felt my baby at 4 months. At first it sounds like you have a fish tank in your body. That gurgle sound. Then at about 5 or 6 months you feel the baby move more. When I was about 7 months by baby started to kick. It looked funny when the baby kick really hard because it goes through your blouse and other people can see it. Enjoy the baby moving.

Answer 5

Usually around 15-16 weeks you can start to feel movement. I just lost my baby at 5 months pregnant(20 weeks) I started to feel her move early around 13 weeks, this was not my first pregnancy so I knew what it felt like. It can feel weird, like gad bubbles or butterfly flutters
Good luck and god blessed you with something very special

Answer 6

I was 4 months before I realized that the butterfly feeling in my tummy was actually my child. It was almost a month that I can remember feeling those flutters. So, probably around 3 or 3 1/2 months.

Answer 7

you may feel it move around your 4 or 5 month it depends on the size of the baby and at first it may feel like gas you know the bubbles rumbling around in your belly but the bigger the baby gets the more powerful the hit sometimes it can get real uncomfortable. Good luck and congrats on the baby

Answer 8

I am 18 weeks pregnant and have just started to feel my baby move around in there. I've heard that it feels like a butterfly...But i dont think so. It feels a lot like waves in a pool to me...kind of. in a weird way.haha. Its like the feeling i get is that the baby is swimming around....and i can feel all the waves from thigns moving. Also, when my baby 'kicks'....its not very strong...so it feels a lot like the baby is just running its small hand on the inside of my tummy....very very gentle like. Cant wait for it to get stronger.

Answer 9

Between 4 and 5 months usually. Around that time the baby is big enough to be felt.

Answer 10

About 4-5 months. If you are thinner, you may feel it a little bit sooner. The first time you feel that movement is so incredible. It kind of makes everything real then.
