Actually it depends on what number pregnancy you are on. You could start to feel flutters at about 12 - 14 weeks if it is your first one. I felt little flutters around that time. Then you start to feel a lot of movement soon after. By the time you are at 20 weeks you feel the hands legs kicking etc. As you get more along in pregnancy and there is less room you feel it less often. If this is not your first you dont feel them for about 3 weeks after what is stated above and you feel it less with each one.

I started feeling movement when I was about 5 months...In a book that I have, it says anywhere from 4 1/2 to 5 1/2 months...It just depends on the baby's growth and development.

Round about 25 -26 weeks women usually start to feel their baby's movements. Before this time it usually flutters with the occasional kicks. Not all your baby's movements are kicks, but this is ok. Every baby is different and so they do not all do the same things at the same times
but every pregnancy is different some feel it from 16-20 weeks

You can actaually feel fetal movement the earliest at 16 weeks but most 1st mother don't recognize the fetal movements or confuse them with gas. At this early many state that it feels like flutters, or stomach growling.
Around 20 weeks is when most women actually recognize that the baby is moving and kicking since the baby is getting less space to move around and bones are hardening.

They say 20 weeks. I am 2 days shy of 20 weeks and can't really say I've felt any movement. A couple of times I thought I did but am not sure. Never been pregnant before this

I felt movement at 19 weeks with my second child, but at about 21 weeks with my first. Everyone is different. A lot of women feel movement earlier once they've already been through it once. But normally, it's 20 weeks or more. If you're earlier than that, don't be fooled by gas. lol

Generally it is 20 weeks but it can be sooner or later. It all depends on the size of the fetus. I didn't feel my daughter move until 23 weeks and sometimes you don't even relize it the first time they move. If you have had surgery also it can delay the feeling of the baby which is what was my case. Congrats

It depends on your size a lot. I was able to feel movements when I was about 16 weeks but I have a very small build. My friend who is much heavier didn't feel movement until she was closer to 25 weeks.

It differs with each woman and each pregnancy. It can be anywhere from 16-20 weeks. For me I realized I was feeling the baby about 18 weeks. It also depends if it is the first pregnancy (after the first you can recognize it better) and if the mom is overweight (which can make it more difficult.)

I started to feel mine at 17 weeks.
It's like a gas in my lower abdominal when I was just happened to put my hands there at that time. But each pregnancy is different.
Enjoy your pregnancy! Children is gift from God!
