you shouldnt feel the baby move until you are about 4 months or 16 weeks....however i am pregnant with my 2nd child and felt the baby move for the first time at 13 weeks...the dr said that it is normal but uncommon...i think i may be further along

The baby isn't big enough to feel after only 4 weeks. It could be gas from the slowed metabolism due to the pregnancy, or you may actually be further along. First time pregnancies, the baby isnt felt til at least 16 weeks, but could be as late as 21 weeks. Most wemen that have had previous pregnancies do feel their babies move earlier than 16 weeks because they know what it feels like - plus the uterus is relaxed and not as tight as the first preg. Good Luck!

The baby is too small for you to feel any type of movement. Most people don't even *know* they are pregnant the first month. Sometimes there are symptoms like tender breasts, but you can't feel movement from the baby. The baby looks like a lima bean and is that small. It doesn't "move" at this point. Around 16 weeks for your first pregnancy, sometimes 14 weeks for 2nd or 3rd pregnancies, you can feel flutters and sometimes more.

Nope it's too small. You probably feel your intestines gurgling. You won't feel the baby until about 17-19 weeks. If it's your first child you won't feel it until later and it won't necessarily be anything other then a weird fluttery sensation and you might not feel anything else after it for a while. Once you get past halfway (20 weeks) the movements will become more distinct because the baby is getting bigger.

No, but you can definitely feel gas bubbles that feel like something moving. The fetus is only the size of the end of your pinky and it is surrounded my amniotic fluid. You will know it's your baby when you feel it. Expect to feel a flutter around The 4th or 5th month of pregnancy. Congratulations on you pregnancy. It's a wonderful experience.

No you can't feel a baby moving after the first month.
The baby doesn't even have limbs or a torso in the first month.
Look it up and learn about pregnancy.

The baby is too small for you to feel the movements. However, you can have bowel problems this early in the pregnancy. You might just be having some gas. I'd mention it to the doctor at your next visit or call his office, but I wouldn't rush right in to get seen for it.

No it is too small to feel it. after 4 or 5 months you can feel some fluttering sensations and a 6 months you will really feel it move. It is probably gas build up. Go to your doctor if you are still worried about it.

You baby is too small to be felt in the 1st month but you might feel other parts of your body changing for your baby.

If you think you felt your baby move, it is probably just your uterus expanding. If this is your first child you won't feel it move until you are about 3-4 months along. Here is a website that will help you through your pregnancy.
