When can....

Others feel the baby move? DH tonight kept rubbing my belly and saying how he can't wait to feel him move.

DH felt our first at 24 weeks, and our second at 22 weeks, and then just yesterday he sort of felt this baby move, but it was so light he wasn't sure if he really felt it.

Usually I'll just wait until a time when baby is really active, then have DH put his hand where baby is and just hope baby kicks strong enough, though usually baby likes to be a stinker and go quiet as soon as DH's hand is there.

He's been moving like crazy tonight but I know I'm not far enough for DH to feel him

My honey felt our baby at 21w6d but just BARELY. I'm dying for him to feel him kick harder so he can start feeling some of what I can.

Im always feeling the baby move.... But I dont think hes big enough in there for my husband to feel him.

My boyfriend felt him kick not long after I felt kicks. I felt flutters at 16 weeks then movements and little nudges for kicks at 18 weeks n I think he felt nudges at 19 weeks.

I feel like all my movements have been pretty early though! It's only when I've hit like 21/22 weeks he's felt the big kicks, but they've been that strong he pulls his hand away in shock haha xx

Around 17.5 weeks - he only feels the really strong ones tho!

I'd felt baby move for quite a while but wasn't sure it was definitely the baby until 19 weeks and then DH could feel it on the outside the next day.

I felt the baby from the outside at 19 weeks, but the movements are so random that to have DH feel them at this time would have to be a lot of luck and patience. Which he does NOT have.
He actually put his head on my belly and said he can hear the HB. sigh He's such a little kid sometimes!

Yes ((hugs)) don't worry! You'll feel soon

Dh first really felt during 21 weeks. It's just getting stronger since

 

[Anaconda]

If I remember correctly with my first it was around 21 weeks. OH hasn't felt anything yet though. I think all my fat cushions a lot of baby's kicks Fat I didn't have with our first, so I think it'll be a few more weeks yet until he feels something.

It'll happen eventually though

 

[AMB1216]

Sometimes if I time it just right I think I can feel a little movement on the outside, but she's not moving much (at least not that I can feel her) its hard to catch it, I'm also not sure if I'm really feeling her. Since I'll rest my hands on my bump and can always end up feeling my pulse. I was trying to watch my tummy the other day for any movement but it was hard to decipher from my breathing and the pulse which I'm sure makes my belly jump a bit. I can't wait for my belly to start shape shifting and for DH to be able to feel it. He won't even touch my bump now and it makes me kind of sad, like he literally stays away from the lower half of my stomach and only rests his hands above my belly button

 

[USAFWife319]

I can't wait until he can feel ds moving!! I'm so impatient cause I want him to feel what I feel every day

 

[Nina83]

DH felt last night
It was amazing to see his face when he felt! Since then he's been real touchy telling the babe to wake up! Poor guy he's so excited
