When did you feel your baby move? (first child)

[xxsparkerxx]

Hi, I am 18 weeks today, and up to yet I dont think I have felt anything, I have read that it feels like a fluttery feeling but I havmt felt that yet, I have felt like little pulses ( kind of like when you get a twitch in one of the muscles) easiest way to describe it.
I just wondered how long it would be before I start to feel my little one move, cant wait :-)

That sounds like your baby moving to me - the feelings will get stronger as the weeks progress until you feel you should be black and blue!

[ummmm]

It feels a bit like bubbles inside you. If that makes sense. You can probably feel it but don't know what it is...

I'm sure that you are feeling the beginnings of baby moving about. I think it's about 18-20 weeks for first baby (it varies), a little earlier for subsequent babies.

Hi hun!
18 weeks already!! Me too! :o)
I started feeling my daughter move at about 18 weeks but I swear I could feel this one from about 11 or 12. But. this is only because I know what it actually feels like. I think the little spasm-y things you mention are probably little movements. They might only be every few days or so at the moment though. How are you feeling now?

Hi Lollyone :-)
Yes I tend to feel them every few days so hopefully it will be our little one and not imagining it lol
everything fine, I go for my 20 week scan on the 10th June, hopefully then we will find out if we are in team pink or blue :-) cant wait.
I cant believe I am nearlyu half way there already, has gone so quick!!
How are you?
