I'm 17+5 now and am getting a lot of movement that I can feel, this morning I was woken up by it, has anyone felt anything around this time?

I was 17+3 when I started regularly feeling movement, I think I felt her for the first time about a week earlier than that (this is my first). It's perfectly normal.

Yes it is normal from about 16 weeks I think, enjoy it it is a special time. Even when they decide to start doing boxing excercises when you try to go to sleep :-)

Mine only comes alive a lot at bedtime and it's like it's having some sort of party! When I'm relaxing any other time it must be asleep haha

It's my first but my bump isn't massive, I don't think I'm gonna get very big, I would like to find out cuz I haven't bought any clothes as I don't like the unisex ones, I have my 20 weeks scan in 2 weeks I'm so excited!

I'm 17 plus 5 I feel baby move mainly at night when I first go to sleep, then if I start moving around lot in bed I can feel baby move. Also occasionally after food or drink can't wait to feel large proper movements x

I was 16 weeks when I definitely felt a bit of a flutter. 20 weeks when I got some kicks, and now coming up to 28 weeks baby kicks like a mule, so much so that it can be seen,
