| Movement
Ok so some of you may remember when I first got here I spoke about like a tickling and I wasn't sure if it was movement or stretching.
Well On Friday evening it came back alot stronger. At first I wasn't sure. When I got home I decided to sit still and wait to see if it came back. After about 20 minutes I felt something. Most definately wasn't muscle or digestion related. It was movement! There's nothing else to describe it as. As soon as I move or put my hand on my stomach though it stops.
I'm 120% sure of it. I'm not someone to constantly jump to conclusions but I've had alot of mothers tell me it could be and just because it's not the textbook 16-20 weeks doesn't mean it's impossible. I have a friend who is due with her first next month she said she felt her first movements at 15 weeks.
I felt it again on Saturday and again just now. | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I'm having my first and have felt movements since 14/15wks too! Baby is big enough for you to feel then, so I don't see why it's not possible if you know what you're looking for! |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | It is possible to feel movement from 14 weeks I felt it that early with my 1st but not until 18/19 weeks with my 2nd & again this time. It is meant to be the other way round but I believe pregnancys are not all textbook & everyone is different...congrats on feeling your LO move xx | | | | Status: Offline

| Yay!! I'm glad other people are feeling! And I'm glad other people felt movement at this stage too!! So I don't look like a complete looney  LOL
Really at first I didn't think it was possible but it's definately movement! Cause I have had some people telling me that with my first I won't feel movement till at least 18 weeks. I just couldn't see how every pregnancy MUST be to the book.
It's amazing! | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | Feeling the baby move is so exciting. I remember those flutters, now, mine are getting stronger. My hubby felt the baby for the first time on Friday. He is just barely starting to kick hard enough for him to feel. I notice he kicks more when I have a full bladder. Congrats on feeling your baby, it only gets better (from what I have experienced so far).  |
