Wow! I just quite literally saw my belly move where I felt him kick and turn!

I am almost 21 Weeks- anyone else feeling strong movement from inside and seeing movement on the outside?

I feel him everyday throughout the day but this is the first time I have seen him move!
 
Yes it's Soo cool!!! I can even see where my baby is when I lay flat on my back and see kicks sometimes
 
I actually started feeling properly yesterday an saw my belly move too! Was amazing...I'm now sat waiting for it to happen again!
 
That's awesome! I've felt movement from the outside, but I haven't seen my belly move during a kick! I can't wait for my baby girl to be this strong!
 
I lie in bed a lot nudging him to get him going. It's seriously my favorite part. I thought it would be weird and I wasn't looking forward to it but holy cow is it incredible. We have conversations about what part of him is where. I can totally tell when he sticks his butt out or moves his head or kicks his legs or does all three because the music is on. This little man likes to dance.
 
Ladies it really is incredible! I am 21 Weeks tomorrow and really didn't think I would be feeling or seeing what I am. Really happy!

Is there anythin such as a Baby being too active in the womb? Am I gonna have a hyper one when he gets here?! Lol.

He really is strong though as sometimes when he kicks on my bladder or cervix- ouch! There are times when he kicks out the blue, a nice great jab, where I still gasp out loud! I have even felt him have hiccups about 3 or 4 times now- it's about 12-15 consecutive little sort of taps or bumps in one spot, equally spaced apart.
 
Ahh, I'm so jealous, my placenta is anterior so I still don't know if the tiny little movements I feel are her or not. When I have my ultrasounds she is rolling all over the place and I feel absolutely nothing. :nope: I'm fairly thin too so I thought that would be on my side, but for now I just rely on my doppler for reassurance. :flower:
 
Biscuits I am sure those little movements u are feeling is your sweet little girl. I have Heard that with anterior placentas u may start to feel it much later but I have Heard a few women say they end up feeling Baby toward their Sides rather than front!

Time is going so quick and these little babies are growing faster and stronger with each day that passes- I am sure u will feel her stronger and more frequently as the Weeks go:flower:
 
Thank you Tesh <3, I just stay so worried all the time, I think it makes me doubt myself more. The weeks do seem to be going by pretty quickly, I can't believe I'm halfway there! (give or take a week or two :haha:)

We are starting our Bradley Method classes on Monday, I can't wait!
 
Tonight I just saw his kicks on the outside too!! 20w5d &#128525;&#128525;&#128525; I'm so in love!

Biscuits - those little movements are most definitely your little love! Enjoy!
 
Just out of curiosity does anyone think boys are a little more active in the womb than girls? Just wondering cos everyone I know who is having or had a girl always had subtle, little or late movement.

Does an active Baby in the womb mean a very active Baby when they come out? Lol
 
I don't think boys are more active lol, this girl is more active than my son ever was and this is with an anterior placenta! I felt both properly around 20 weeks. I think it just varies baby to baby. Can also depend on what you eat & drink :)
 
I finally looked at my tummy while feeling baby's movements a few days ago and saw my tummy move in the spot baby kicked! I didn't see a foot or anything though, just a small bulge out for a second.

Test, Are hiccups when baby moves in one spot a bunch of times in a row? I've felt something like that a few times but just though baby was kicking/moving a bunch in that area.
 
Hey starlight yes! Hiccups feel like little jerks or taps that happen in one spot consecutively with even amount of time between each one- if that makes sense?

Do u know what u are having? Boy or girl?
 
I'm having a baby girl <3 I love feeling her move! She was pretty active last night but has been on the quiet side today.
 
I have heard boys are more active in the womb, but that's also a wives tale and I'm a FTM so I'm not sure
 
I'm having my 3rd girl and they've all been little live wires and my older 2 are just as active now! I've been able to see movement since about 17 weeks this time! It's awesome! Mostly see it around the sides and to the top or bottom as I also have an anterior placenta this time!

Beca :wave:
 
Two nights ago I saw 3 kicks, very tiny ones, from the outside. Couldn't believe it but felt it very clearly on the inside that's why I decided to look!! Beautiful experience!
