Re: When did you first notice movements?

I noticed little things that I wasn't certain were movements around 14-15 weeks. By 16 weeks it was obvious I was feeling the baby. Now I can see her movements, since like 22 weeks, if I watch my stomach. mashAllah.

Hi everyone.

Can u feel any fluttering? Some ppl say it's like a feather is lightly being brushed just under your belly, very light at first, say 16 - 20 weeks or so.

It's different for everyone n depends on their size or thickness or whatever.

It's weird! Yesterday it felt like she had her head (something round and hard) wedged up in a corner and it was slightly protruding. And I was like OMG! And started cuddling it :D

Sahar,Mashallah that is amazing.
Wherever I read about it they say that women start to feel something between 16-20+ weeks and it differs for everyone.For some it feels like a feathery feeling or like popcorn popping or maybe even tummy gas.
If someone is a bit over weight they might not be able to feel it very early.
I am Mashallah 18 weeks today,and still waiting to feel anything.:)

Re: When did you first notice movements?

^ yeah I thought about that, but it didn't make sense with the way she was kicking.

Re: When did you first notice movements?

I wouldn't worry if you don't feel movement very early on...mostly first time mums don't realise if it's a kick or not. I felt my first movements around 24 weeks....and sometimes if i'm very busy i don't notice anything.

Re: When did you first notice movements?

sahar did it freak u out the first time u actually SAW the movement? i was in class and everyone stared at my belly (i had a HUGE belly)... the teacher stopped her lecture to look at what everyoen else was gaping at.. i only realized cuz everyone else was looking.. it was the most amazing thing.. after that.. everytime the baby would move.. i would stop, pull up my shirt and just stare :D

Re: When did you first notice movements?

Re: When did you first notice movements?

when it happens to u, even ure husband or ppl sitting close to u will be albe to see.. wait and watch :D sometimes the movements are quite shocking.. like when the baby moves its legs, or changes sides.. the protruding is quite big

my midwife explained it nicely but i have since forgotten.. somethign to do with thin stomach something something ..

Re: When did you first notice movements?

lol - at all...

I was at an office meeting - with about 15 people in the room. It was so boring and I was falling sleepy.

All of a sudden, I felt tapping on my lower abs - then little faster... It was just for a few seconds - but first I got so SCARED. I was like oh my gosh there's something inside me tapping.

It was my first and I had some idea that the little ones do stretch, play, and have all sorts of activities in there. BUT I had no idea on tapping.

Soon I realized that oh my gosh it 's the little one - and the tiny feet totally made my day.

I had this smile on my face and the "meeting conductor" did point out - what's the glow on your face? I was like - ummmmmm - ? lol

Again I know its very variable among women,but whats the harm in waiting anxiously!
