10+4 weeks. Fluttering feeling... baby??

[SteffieLee]

Hey all. This is my 3rd baby. With both other children, I didn't feel movement until 17+ wks when I would get a swift kick. Never earlier. With this one, I feel fluttering in my uterus. Muscle twitches or could that be the baby? I'm 10+4 weeks today.
Anyone else having fluttering this early?

 

[Reidfidleir]

I have with my first! And I had an anterior placenta too. Felt fluttering at 10.5 weeks but didn't feel any regular movement until 14. Absolutely it's baby.

Thanks! ! I'd love it to be baby. Best feeling ever.

I just asked nearly this exact question! I swear I felt something earlier today. It's awesome!

 

[SteffieLee]

Bahaha, I just posted on your thread too. Haha

Usually people say with your 2nd or 3rd baby you feel it even later than you did your first. I guess its possible but not likely.

 

[too_scared]

That's funny because I've always heard the opposite, that you feel baby earlier with subsequent pregnancies.

 

[RandaPanda]

Yes, I've definitely heard it's earlier with each subsequent one. This is only my first, so it's doubtful it was baby this early, but a couple days ago (at 12 weeks) I had the strangest fluttering feeling right when I laid down for bed (lol, I know it wasn't gas or anything)...not sure what it was though. I'm a bit underweight, so not sure if that plays a factor in how early or late I might feel baby. Anyone know?

This is really strange I was thinking this last night, I am 10+3 and when I was in bed last night I felt like I could feel like fluttering in my tummy, I was wondering if this was baby as it's very early, this is #2 and I have heard also you feel things earlier as your body has already experienced this.

I'd say if it is your third baby then it could definitly be baby

 

[SteffieLee]

Thanks everyone!!! Time will tell if it's really the baby moving! I'll ask my OB when I see her in a couple weeks.

 

[too_scared]

With my first I was sure I felt him at 14 weeks. I was laying in bed before getting up in the morning and the only way I can describe what I felt is that it was as if a little fish was flopping around really low down in my tummy. It lasted only a second or two and that was it. No way it was gas.

I feel like if it was a bubbling in your low pelvic area or uterus, it's the baby. I asked my midwife, and she said it's the baby. I never had stuff like that happen before I was pregnant! Hah. It's over an inch big! You're bound to feel something when it moves. It's swishing stuff around in there ya know?
