When does it move?

[Shannon]

Okay most of the women on hear are at about 22 weeks and up talking about all the kicking and stuff. Does anyone here any earlier in pregnancy feel good movements? I am at 15 w 6 d (my ticker is wrong) and only felt a couple things over the past 2-3 weeks, i know it will take time but when can i expect to start feeling it steadily?

I'm 20wks and I don't feel it steadily. I'll feel Peanut most days, but not every day. Some days I feel it on, like a schedule (morning, after eating, laying down in bed) other days, like yesterday, I got a right proper thunk in the afternoon and a little squirminess in the evening in thats it. I'm also overweight though, so I'm pretty sure that has soemthing to do with it. You'll be feeling your LO more often very soon!

Im feeling movement quite often but it's when im sitting quiet or when im lying in bed but this is my 2nd pregnancy.

First pregnancy I didn't get proper kicks untill around 20 weeks but had 1st felt movement around 16-17 weeks.

It won't be long before you are feeling it more often and harder

They say we should start to feel something from around now at 15 weeks plus. I have felt little flutterings but nothing definate like a kick or thump...

I felt a big jab sort of yesterday in my side but i suppose that could have been gas! lol

you probably wont feel steady movement or rythmic movement for a while now. I started feeling him move around 16 weeks but it was erratic and random, I would have a day when I would feel him a good amount and then it would go away and I wouldnt feel him for a few days sometimes. It got stronger and more frequent up until my 22nd week and then between then and now (almost 26 weeks) it has gotten so that I feel him every day and he is in more of a pattern now. Dont worry about movement quite yet. If you arent having noticable kicks by your 20-22nd week then I would ask your doc about it.

I first felt odd movements a 17 weeks, and now I'm feeling over 15 a day XD
Mainly in the afternoon and night time when relaxing and/or laying in bed

I felt my first roly poly type movements by 15 weeks. Couple times a day, and this is my second child.

Felt more serious movement about week 18. Punches here and there.

A week later there was a pretty set schedule for movement. 9am, 12pm, 4pm, 8pm and 11pm. LO was awake for a few minutes and kicking up a storm.

This has pretty much held true through today, though sometimes she'll bypass certain times for extra sleep and be more active during others.

I was having gentle but noticable movements at about 16 or 17 weeks. Could still confuse them with wind though at times. I had my first had proper kicks at 19 weeks and they happened maybe every other day.

From about 20 or 21 weeks I've been feeling him move every day but some days more than others. If you're busy though it's easy to not pay attention. I find if he has a really active day or two it will be followed by 1 or 2 quiet days.

I have been getting kicked like crazy the past 2-3 days.

 

[Deise]

I felt whats an actual movement at 21 weeks. I got up at 3AM this morning to use the restroom and when I went back to bed, I actually felt her kick thru the stomach, which is great because now she can beat up my fianceee too!

 

[PitBullMommy]

Does the fact that I'm overweight have anything to do with why I haven't felt Peanut move as often as some others. I feel him now and again, but definietly not much.

 

[bisbis]

PitBullMommy, i've been told everybody is different...i feel a few movements and flutters but not as often as most people, our little ones probably move a lot when we are asleep cos i woke up at 4am sometime last week and felt a lot of movement.

 

[Tam]

I was 22-23 wks when the movements became regular! x

 

[radi]

I am 20 weeks now and don't feel any movements yet. I am waiting every day to get some movements but nothing's happening. Someone with the same experience?
