My Wife is 22 weeks pregnant and she can feel the baby move around. When will I be able to do so?

You'll be able to fee baby soon...I know it seems a long wait: she's probably been feeling baby for several weeks by now and you don't get that joy. I'd say around 25 weeks baby would be strong enough, perhaps before.

My husband felt the baby move about 28-29 weeks. The hard part was when I'd feel the baby move, by the time my husband put his hand on my belly the baby would stop moving. But later in pregnancy the baby would move all the time and it was no problem for him to feel the movement. Even there were times when you could see my belly move.

You should be able to in a few weeks at the most. If you are able to, touch her belly after she gets off of work or has come in after a busy day. The baby tends to wake up and stretch after mom starts to relax a bit. Also, don't be afraid to GENTLY but firmly massage her belly. You might have to push your hand in just a little to feel the flutters.

My hubby finally felt mine at about 23 weeks. It's really just a case of being in the right place at the right time though. Before this time, I would feel my baby moving by placing my hand on my tummy, but my hubby was never around when it happened!

You should be able to between the 23rd and 25th week depending on how much weight she has gained. I am 20 weeks and my boyfriend can't wait till he can feel the baby. It is okay to push slightly on the area where the baby moves the most, sometimes they will push back!!

Soon be patient. I told my husband i could feel the baby move a little and he didn't feel anything. I was about 6 month pregnant and wowowowowow he felt him kick. Plus usually with a first pregnancy it will take a little long because the uterus hasn't been stretched out yet. Be patient its worth it.

my fiance first fell our son move at 30 weeks then i had him 2 weeks later but it is worth the wait and when you see your child for the first time make sure you have a camera so you can look back at the photo and say this was the most proudest time in my life

Probably at about 25-26 weeks. My husband is sharing in your frustration. He desperately wants to feel his son or daughter move, but can't yet.
He asked why *I* get to have all of the fun. I told him that if he wants to push this baby out, he's more than welcome. ;-)
You'll be able to feel your little one soon.
