I am 25 weeks and 1 day. At what point should others be able to feel movement of the baby from the outside. I still feel just strong flutters and rarely kicks. I have tried to feel movement but every time I put my hand to by stomach when he's moving, he will stop.

lots of the time i put my husbands hand on my tummy and he felt nothing, The movement will increase week by week and it will get stronger all the time. Drink ice cold water and it will move!!!

I was pretty far along before anyone else could feel it. Maybe about the same as you? My husband felt it once at about 21 weeks, but that was just sheer luck- he was in the right place at the right time. Even now (30 weeks), she is pretty shy. We found that if hubby puts his hand on my belly early in the morning, when I am sleeping, he can feel her kick pretty frequently. Also, if we play her music through headphones (not too loudly) she will wake up and start moving around. Same goes for drinking something sugary or cold. Good luck!

I will be 25 weeks tomorrow and my family has been able to feel the baby move for about a month now, but this is our third baby. yours could have it's back facing out, and that is why you can't feel it by touch, give it time, it will start soon!!

Try lying on your back. thats pretty much the only time my boyfriend can feel it.... unless she gets the hiccups then its visible... our babe started moving around when i was around 16 or 17 weeks. Now if i lay with my stomach up against my boyfriend's, he can feel her kicking him through me... She's very jealous, doesnt want anything touching my stomach lol.... once it starts moving though, it'll be hard to ignore... good luck!!!!

He probably has his back facing out. Until he turns around, or if he does at all, you wont really feel anything.
By 20 weeks My husband could see and feel our guy move. But he was facing out.

the bigger and stronger the baby gets the more you will be able to feel him. when I was pregnant my partner couldnt feel the baby moving until i was about 28 weeks or so, although i could feel her digging at my rib cage!!!
