I'm Currently Feeling: | When Your Little One First Moved When did you first feel your baby move and how did you tell the difference between genuine movement and wind!!
I'm 21 weeks with my first baby and I have had lots of flutterings just above my pubic area, and am fairly sure that I felt a few kicks a bit higher up.
When did you feel movement on the outside of your bump?
How do you feel about people touching your tummy??

Sorry to be so nosey!!  | I haven't felt any movement yet. I'm looking forward too though.
As far as people touching my belly, I really don't like it. They just do it off guard and it annoys me. I feel that people shouldn't touch my belly period, because they wouldn't do it if I wasn't pregnant why do it when I am.
It's inappropriate without your consent. That area is a private area because there's a life there.
Would you mind anyone touching your behind, breast, & legs without your permission?
Just my thoughts!
I think the only person who should touch my belly is my husband.

I'm Currently Feeling: | 16 1/2 weeks was the first time I felt it. It felt like a tickle straight across my belly, low down, and I had never felt anything like that. But I didn't really feel much else for a few weeks after that. In the last few days, I have really been noticing the baby move around, not many kicks yet.
Oh, and I don't mind my friends touching my belly, but I don't want strangers to do so. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I felt my Peanut for the first time...a little less than a week ago, I think. It felt like 6-7 little bubbles popping in the same place all of a sudden..then it just stopped. I've felt him a few more times recently, but...actually, I just felt him just now, LOL. He must know I'm talking about it. I don't feel him consistantly or even every day yet. |
