Does anyone else experience butterflies?

I get quite intense butterflies which is lovely and when I or my husband touch my tummy it becomes even more intense. It's a nice feeling but unsure why I keep getting them. I'm 26+5 days pregnant and feel her kicking and can now see her moving about :-)

absolutely, it gets stronger so it feels like you are really excited or nervous about something but (I assume) it's just baby moving around. mind you, now at 32 weeks it feels a bit more like someone's grabbing my guts and twisting them around! but then again, perhaps that's what he's doing in there! x

Hi thanks for response. When I asked midwife she didn't say much about it when I asked her so I just assumed it was normal but couple of my friends are also pregnant and they said only felt it early on. Lucky u, u haven't got long left :-) x
