When I was about 17-18 weeks.
Try to relax before going to bed and watch your belly carefully and you should see your baby poking and kicking. Perfect timing for DH to put his hand on and feel it.

oh wow he could already feel it then, well i guess i can try now then

no idea, my baby likes to poke a lot
but it is very normal even for you not to feel actual movement until you are in your early 20-weeks.

i feel but for some reason when ever i put my hand there, its doesnt want to move! i also cant really see coz baby is down quite low and i cant see over my bump but i can let DH try look from the side.

I think OH first felt our at 19 weeks when he was kicking very hard. He feels him all the time now. In bed, he lays with his hand on my belly and feels baby kicking away for ages.

will kicking very hard - be very hard?
i have felt some movement that is harder than other and wondered if that was kicks
dont really know what to expect the kicks to be like

It's hard to say. As they get bigger they're much stronger and it becomes easier to tell what you're feeling. Sometimes I get quite hard kicks which last seconds and other times strong movement which just feels like baby is squirming about. I also get little bits sticking out which I'd guess is a food, hand or elbow and other times something big which must be a head or bum.

It was strange the first time I felt him both sides of my belly at once. I'm sure he does star jumps and he certainly tries to use up all of his space.

He's felt 1 or 2 kicks this week (19 weeks). Both were very faint, but he just happened to have his hand in the right place.
