hi am poss 8+3 eeks preg with 3rd preg. Am sure been feeling movements. Little areas go tight/stretchy feelings. Think seen bump move but not sure. i thought saw movements few weeks ago, just above my belly button i kept seing skin rise i thought maye my pulse etc but didnt happen all time just once or twice. i am sure i see a bump but norm this stage i have nothing (so either fat, havin twins, i was neat an small with other 2pregs one of each sex).stomachs been little funny today too, i had uti on weds which is better now(no pain when wee).

Your baby isnt anywhere near your belly button yet. More 14 weeks onwards. At 8 weeks it is just above pubic bone, i dont think baby starts really moving till 9-10wks. With my 2nd i felt bubbling at 10weeks, i feel pulsing prodding now which is1-2" under belly button. x

At 8 weeks, baby is only about 1.6cm big and still nestled within your pubic bone.

I wouldn't say it's too early, especially if it's not your first pregnancy. I felt flutters at 13 weeks with my first, and with this pregnancy at about 8 weeks 5 days/9 weeks. That's around the time they say the baby starts to move, so it's possible, although a lot earlier than most women feel movement. I don't know if some women feel it earlier than most based on where the fetus/uterus is positioned....but if you google 'fetal movement at 8/9 weeks' you'll see that other women have had the same experience.

I don't think you can see movement from the outside or feel 'kicks' at that stage, though...since the baby is still really small, like the PPs said.

thanks dont mind felling first move till 20-30 weeks an secondd think was 17wks she was a wriggler lol. Musta been gass or mucles/ligaments stretching . Swear remindid me when other two kicked but this was fainter obv. Stomachs little cramppy. Maybe due to all my vomiting 3-4 boughts a day. Kepped some stuff dwn so far today since 2pm, lost lunch. Am just parinoid ill lose this one or sumin, had scans about now with both prev pregs due abdo pain (blammed my ibs but nvr felt pains before each time was diff). So far very little cramping i had some on wed but believe uti caused tht an was very mild for me. Been strange since but nothing strong.
