Where do you feel the flutters?

Zoodle · Jan 13th, 2010, 10:18 AM

Hello,

For a few days i've been feeling what is like gas bubbles just below my belly button... is this too high up for it to be the baby moving?

Also, how long do the flutters last? Is it just once a day for a few seconds, or could it go on for a few minutes and happen quite regularly?

Am trying to work out whether this is just wind or the little bub moving!!!

I felt a feeling like a hummingbirds wings, fluttering at the left of my body inbetween the top of my pelvis and belly button at about 17 weeks so it could be your baby!

I felt flutters at 16 weeks and proper kicks at 20 weeks x

I've just started to feel my baby (at least I think so!), and the flutters are lower, about halfway between my pubic bone and belly button. They are just occasional, and over quickly. I can't wait until I feel something more definite.

early on they say it feels like gas bubbles or butterflies... I'd say around 15 weeks and as someone said definately at 20 weeks.. How exciting... I can't wait to experience it... Congrats

I started feeling flutters at about 18 weeks and more recently small kicks just after 20 weeks but all of mine have been quite low down!?

The more threads I read on here though the more I realise that every pregnancy is different.. so you could be feeling your little bean!

I first felt it on Christmas day so I would have been 16 weeks. It was about half way below by belly button and bikini line but over the left a bit. It felt like gentle fluttering or a muscle twitching. Now I can feel it much more often and more strongly.

I felt them over to my left side. From my 4D ultrasound, I know that's usually where his head and arms are... which explains the pushing/heavy feeling I get over there sometimes. It's to the left and below my belly button. I feel it several different times per day... which is I guess when he's not napping!
