I'm 10 weeks along and I still don't "feel" pregnant. I know I am, I've seen the baby and have seen it moving on ultra-sound, but I can't feel it yet and am not showing. My stomach is still like it was before I got pregnant. I can't even feel my uterus yet. I feel tired, exhausted really, I'm cranky with mood swings, but other than that, nothing....when will I start to "feel" like I have another life inside of me. It's hard to imagine right now.

After about 3 months I started feeling pregnant.

Well i really didnt start feeling pregnant until my fourth month, when I would no longer be able to lay on my belly, or eventhough I could lay on my belly I would feel little discomfort becuase my uterus was growing. I was already a bit over weight so there was extra cushioning. The exhaustion and fatigues are from your pregnancy, your hormones are multiplying daily and well you're only one person dealing with the hormones of two.
About feeling like there is life inside you, well you wont feel that untill you feel the baby really kick, everyone i talk to claim that girls take longer to feel than boys, I didnt feel the first kick, or "fluttering" until about my fourth month going on my fifth, the ultrasound showed girl so maybe the myth is true.
I didnt actually start acting pregnant until my growing baby was limiting me from doing certain things, like, reaching top shelves, or being able to sit straight, I had to lower my chair at work to be able to get close to my desk, which i think is funny.
I didnt start feeling any pain until my 8th month and a half, I wasnt able to stand for long, my legs were sore, and it is all due to the tremendous amount of weight in one are that was not there before.
Just be patient and enjoy this time of being pregnant without any morning sickness and distress, once the pains start you will wish you would feel like nothing was going on.
Take care,
God Bless,
Good Luck

You may have to wait another ten weeks or so, sorry. Most first time mom feel the baby move and start showing by 20 weeks, and usually not before 16 weeks. I know it really sucks, because you really want to feel pregnant, I did anyway, and that's hard to do without seeing or feeling signs of the little guy/gal. Good luck and I know it's impossible, but try to be patient. Pretty soon you'll be showing and feeling your little one's every move!

I rescheduled my dr. appointment because I had something planned at the same time today...my dr. appointment wasn't until 2 weeks from today... So I rescheduled for nothing. I felt so dumb after! I had to write down what time the school lets out cuz I kept forgetting whether it was 2:30 or 3. My "pregnancy brain" started around 12 weeks. I am now 16 weeks.

It could be a few more weeks, it could be a couple of months. Every woman is different, as is every pregnancy. Not including the all the time sickness (which sounds like you don't have it, so count your blessings) I started to feel my son moving around at 4 months and my belly started getting bigger at around 5 months...and bigger and bigger to the point where people thought I was having twins! Best of Luck on your pregnancy and Congrats!

Its hard to say.
I started feeling movements around 16 weeks.
I think the real reality is when you know the sex and start buying all the things needed.

every woman is different..i started feeling pregnant at about 4 1/2 weeks. really tired, a tad nauseous and really irritated. I didn't feel her move until about 3 months though..it's like a little bubble moves in your tummy. you'll know it when you feel it. congrats!

i didnt feel pregnant with my son until i was around 2 months. it is very normal and you should be feeling more and more pregnant as each day passes. just think when you are 8 months you will think back on this and be glad that you didnt feel pregnant this soon. just kidding. good luck and i hope all turns out well.

Well , being a mother of 5 children myself and my youngest daughter is 5 mo. pregnant. she did not start feeling movement until this month. so as far as feeling movement, probably not until at least your 4th month. If that is what you are referring to , as feeling pregnant.
