Hello!
I just wanted to ask.....
What week were you when you felt your baby move for the first time?
I was just curious.....
I am currently 15 weeks. I know that it's still early for me to feel anything, but I also know that it is entirely possible!
I also know that for first time pregers, it's harder for us to "tell" that what we are feeling is actually the baby, since we've never felt it before!!!!
I am pretty little. 103 lbs. So, I'm hoping that will help in causing me to feel my little peanut sooner rather than later!
But. What about you?
How far along were you when you felt your baby move the first time?

Thanks :)

I was 15 weeks when I felt the first little twitches, but they were few and far between. Now I'm 17 weeks and I feel kicks more consistently. For me at first it felt like muscle twitches or bubbles popping but it's hard to explain. When you feel it, you'll just know it's the baby.
Congrats and good luck with your pregnancy!

HI there!
Well I was about 17 weeks when I felt my baby move. It's pretty hard to descibe. It feels like butterflies in your uterus. You'll be able to tell because it feels like nothing else you've ever felt. Now i'm 34 weeks pregnant and my baby is extreemly active. It's moving all the time and sometimes it feels like he/she's gonna kick it's way out of my tummy. The best feeling is when you can feel it's little head moving. When it's in the right possition ( ready for delivery) You'll be able to feel it about 32 weeks maybe earlier or later. I started feeling it's head at about 29 weeks. Hey good luck with your baby! Every movement is great!

I felt my baby around 15 weeks and my husband was able to feel her with his hand on my tummy at 16 weeks. I'm 5'7 about 130 so I'm on the thin side too. I think I even felt her earlier than 15 weeks, but I knew for sure then. It kind of feels like a muscle twitch or gas at first.

1st child I was 120lbs and I felt her not till I was almost 24 weeks along.
2nd child I am 19 weeks along now and have been feeling it moves since I was around 15 weeks. My stomach is not as in shape as it was with my first so the muscle can hind the feeling in a first pregnancy a lot more than the second time around since you are already stretched out. Everyone is different though.

I was 15 weeks and I felt flutters like butterflies. I didn't start feeling actual kicks until I was 17 weeks.

I was 18 weeks along. That is the first time I felt something and actually attributed it to the baby! It was wonderful! It is entirely possible that you are feeling your baby! It gets stronger and stronger- good luck and congrats!
