What week did you start to feel movement?

TWalker02840 posted:

This is my 2nd and I started feeling it @ 17wks, it has just been getting more noticeable since then. I'll be 20wks on 3/7 and I can feel just slight movements from the outside. My daughter is dying to feel the baby move! I think within the next 2 weeks she will definitely be able to feel him move. He already responds to sound, my husband and I were atlking last night and after I would be done speaking I would feel the baby move. I Love It. Can't wait to feel that first major kick!

I was close to 14 weeks when I felt him. With dd I didn't feel her till I was about 18 weeks. I feel a lot of flutters right now. I can't wait to feel the big kicks either! So exciting to know they are growing!

I should have read the poll better. I voted that I found out the sex of our LO at 18 weeks but it should have been 20 weeks. I started to feel her move at about 18 weeks. Now I feel her every day. Somedays more than others but she is active at least once every day. The last couple of days it feels like she is rolling around in there instead of kicking me.

This is my third baby. I was in my 14th week when I started feeling definite movements, although I am pretty sure I felt movement before that.

I started feeling small movement I think at 17/18 weeks but at 19 weeks it was definite movement. I'm 20 weeks/4 days and I feel him move more and more each day. He's been lazy the past couple of days. Sometimes I feel kicks but only inside. I can't wait until we can feel the kicks on the outside so DH can feel them. I think he's feels a little left out right now b/c I talk about how Lucas is moving each day and he can't feel it yet.

I felt movement (what I knew was movement for sure) at about 18 weeks. DH felt the baby kick when I was about 20 weeks. I'm 21 weeks 4 days and I can sometimes feel my little one with my hand. We call the baby "The Karate Kid" because he or she has been so active lol.

Atlas63 responded:

This is my first baby. I didn't really notice any flutters at first. I felt her kick at about 18 weeks. Since then she is just getting stronger and I feel her more each day. I would like to have a window to see what she is doing in there. The other day it felt like she was doing jumping jacks in there. I felt her on both sides of my tummy at the same time.
