It felt like gas or funny bowels for me to start off with around 20weeks. I'm now 31 weeks and the kicks are def much stronger and can feel like jolts or punches heh sometimes you can see tummy move and squiggle lol

Hi :)! 24 + 5 at the moment and have been feeling my boy move since 19 weeks so it's very possible you are feeling him. First time I started feeling it, it initially felt like butterflies or a nervous feeling along with a bubbly feeling if that helps xx

It felt like butterflies for me. Then at around 22-23 I could start to feel the baby kick more strongly. I am now 25 weeks and I can see the baby kick and move through my bump.

I felt butterfly feeling around week 15 then it turned into a little mouse scratches from inside, then week 16 had 3 kicks, week 17 had 6 kicks. Mind you: I was very active but relaxed stay at home girl. So I had tons of times to observe myself, lay down and feel my tummy.

I started feeling little gas bubbles to at 24 weeks and then kicks got stronger and bubbles seem more bubbler if you know what I mean.
