My first pregnancy I was 23 weeks, second pregnancy I was 21 weeks and my third pregnancy I was 22 weeks. It is different for everyone! Be patient cause once they start kicking hard you'll wish they would stop! Sometimes it can hurt later in the pregnancy!

You won't start feeling the baby for a few months. But when you do start feeling him or her move just know it is the oddest feeling. And the bigger the baby gets the odder you will feel. Your belly can get hard at any time...that was one of the ways I knew I was pregnant..I was only 4 weeks along when I found out. And my belly had a little hard spot in it. It varies from women to women!! Good Luck and Congratulations!!

It's different for everyone but I felt both of mine at around three months. They say that the thinner you are the more likely you'll be to feel the baby earlier but I am not sure if I believe that.
As for your stomach getting hard, that is different for everyone as well. My belly didn't get big or hard until I was six months along with either pregancy ( then I was HUGE !! lol )
Don't obsess about when it will happen, just enjoy it when it does. : )
Have a great time being pregnant, it's wonderful !!

You probably won't feel your baby kick until sometime between 16 and 22 weeks, even though he started moving at 7 or 8 weeks and you may have already witnessed his acrobatics if you've had an ultrasound.
Veteran moms tend to notice those first subtle kicks — also known as "quickening" — earlier than first-time moms. (A woman who's been pregnant before can more easily distinguish her baby's kick from other belly rumblings, such as gas.)
Your build may also have something to do with when you'll be able to tell a left jab from a hunger pang. Thinner women tend to feel movement earlier and more often than women who carry more weight
Women have described the sensation as being like popcorn popping, a goldfish swimming around, or butterflies fluttering. You'll probably chalk up those first gentle taps or swishes in your belly to gas or hunger pains, but once you start feeling them more regularly, you'll recognize the difference. You're more likely to feel these early movements when you're sitting or lying quietly.

I felt my child move at around 14 weeks if i laid on my back. My belly didn't get hard until about 3 or 4 months.

It's different for everyone but I felt both of my pregnancies between 4 and 5 mos. Like a little butterfly. You'll feel a firmness about your 4th month.

I am 5 months and my belly is starting to get harder. I felt my first movement when i was 15 weeks. It depends if its your first or not, you tend to know what you are looking for the second time around. My first child I felt it at 18weeks
