Second time around?

Question

I just got the news that I will be having my second child. The baby is due in Oct. Any guesssing at when I should feel the baby move? Also are babies and moms bigger the second time

Answer 1

you should feel it anywhere from 16-22 weeks

Answer 2

Yup they do got bigger faster the second time and she can probably feel the baby move around 14-22 weeks but u may not b able to feel it until closer to 22 weeks when it gets stronger. I am 18 weeks with baby 2 and i felt mine kick at 15 weeks but dad cant feel it yet cause it's not strong enough on the outside and the baby is still sitting pretty far back

Answer 3

Congratulations!!

You should first start to feel the baby move between 16 and 22 weeks.

I think each pregnancy is different so you may be bigger or smaller this time around.

Answer 4

With my first felt him at 24 weeks, and I gained 60 lbs... this time I am 24 weeks, felt this one at 20 weeks, and so far have only gained 10 lbs... I am still in my reg. clothes, and although I am bigger now, (I haven't lost everythign from the first one and it has been 2 years) I am still on the lower end of the scale for this pregnancy, and I haven't gotten any new strech marks so far.... Everything is different for everybody.... Just enjoy and Congrats!!!

Answer 5

Well, she answered the week question, so I will continue.

My second son was only a couple of ounces larger.

You will get 'larger' only because you have already stretched out before, you body will relax and 'do it's thing' faster.

Answer 6

I felt mine at 16 weeks (I'm 26 weeks w/ #2). My belly must be bigger b/c my stretch marks are extending upwards (YUCK)! I havn't gained as much weight as I did w/ my first one though.

Answer 7

I ate less with my second, and was smaller.
