Please describe your baby's movements :) And when did you feel them from outside?

I think I've started feeling flutters and kicks but only the last week or so, I have an anterior placenta so that may have contributed. They're not very frequent, I sometimes find she wakes up when I'm eating lol or when I lay on my back when I first get in bed (but I usually roll onto my side to sleep and the feeling stops) lol they're very gentle and for a while I wasn't entirely convinced what they were ... I don't see what else they could be now though lol I find they are a little bit like wind, and sometimes just like there is something gently tapping me inside.

Another time I am more convinced of the movements is when I use the doppler, I find they coincide with knocks and sounds on the doppler, I wonder if the doppler bothers her? lol

Was wondering what your movements felt like and when (if you have) did you start feeling them from outside your tummy? I can't wait for OH to share the feeling with me x

I also have an anterior placenta, my movements started about 19-20 weeks - they felt like the baby had a bag of tiny balloons and was busy blowing them up and popping them- really low and just at the front to start with.
Only felt it when I was laying down to start with. Now it's much more regular, when i'm in any position and proper kicks, still all low and at the sides. Have been able to feel from the outside for about 3 days now.
Sounds like you're quite like me!

mine started off like a tiny suction feeling and wind. started feeling it at 18 weeks and now in the last few days it´s a lot more active and feels like litle taps, being on a fairground ride, a washing machine in my tummy feeling. and also the last few days have started feeling it from the outside aswell. it is only faint but can defo feel it.
