Movement

Hi all I am 18 weeks pregnant today and was wondering when you all felt your baby's first movements?! I already have 3 children but for the life of me I can't remember how far gone I was before they stated moving, I can feel what I can only describe as pushing on my lower belly but none to say that it was a hand or foot :-)

Hi Jodie! I'm 18 weeks too, with my first. I've been feeling some sensations the past week but wasn't sure if it was baby 👶 or wind...until last night! I felt definite movement! As you said, it feels like a pushing! It's pretty cool but weird! Xx

Not until nearly 22 weeks for me.

I felt little flutters with my daughter, at 16 weeks. With my son, I was 15 weeks. Usually they say between 15-18 weeks, you feel some movement. Good luck to you! <3

I felt what i can only describe as a "flick" at around 21 weeks. I don't think i felt anything else before that, certainly not that I'm sure of.

Now, you can see the movement from a mile away! Lol
