You should be feeling it soon (within the next 3-6 weeks). At first it feels as if there are actually butterflies in your stomach and you can't get your stomach to settle down even if you take a deep breath and try to relax the muscles. Then is starts to feel like a gas bubble or burp inside but really low. The a little bump from inside and at that point you always know when it is the baby and not air, or nerves etc. Right now, if you lay down on your stomach and hold your breath and really concentrate, you may be able to feel it. Don't worry if you don't it won't be long.

Funny, the first time I actually knew for sure it was my baby, I was laying on my back and it was 15 minutes before 6/6/06. All of a sudden my belly jumped like a frog, 3 good kicks.....It really freaked me out!

hi i felt my baby move for the first time when i was about 16 weeks, it felt like little butterflys flying around(abit like trapped wind) but when i was 20 weeks pregnant i felt it a lot stronger you felt the baby move position, and you can see your stomach move, when i was in my third trimester you can feel the baby really kick and the foot would stick right out of your belly and sometimes it would be a bit uncomftable

you may feel something now or it may be anywhere from 2-8 weeks longer depending upon your size i felt mine at around 14 weeks but if you dont know what to expect it can feel like gas or digesting food or it can feel like a butterfly or bug crawling on your tummy everyone describes it differently but those are some common ones or sometimes it can feel like water big water drops plopping down on your belly so best wishes on the kick n feel

congrats . when you are closer to 4 months you will feel a flutter [ like butterflies or little gas bubbles]low in your ab. that is not a kick put your babies nervous system growing and it makes the fetus tremor as a result . when this grows stronger those are kicks you will know trust me...a great great book for first timers is -what to expect when youre expecting-the best documentry on pregnancy is on national geographic channel called ''in the womb''

I'm going to be honest. The feeling of the baby moving was the creepiest thing to me. I didn't really like it at all. Later on I was more comfortable and looked forward to it more. But even later, but particularly in the begining, all I could think was "There is something moving in my belly and it isn't me".
So don't feel like a bad mom if you end up feeling that way. It *is* weird to have something other than you moving in your belly.

If I remember correctly, it would be at about 5 months and it feels like something moving around and when the feet or hands really stretch out, sometimes it hurts.
