Ok, just a quick question. How soon did other moms feel their baby kicking, moving, etc? I just finished my 11th week, heading into 12th now. I do have a son that is 3...and I remember with him not feeling the baby move until around 15 or 15 weeks. I know on subsequent pregnancies you are suppose to feel it earlier because you know what it is like, etc...but has anyone felt the baby move/fluttering around at 11 weeks??? I am just trying to make sure I'm not going loco. I know it's a mover because on the sono they had a hard time getting a good shot of it because it was swimming around in there. Anyone else feel it this early???

What can I do next?

M.,

I felt my oldest DD about 16 weeks along. I am now 38 weeks preggo with my 2nd little girl and felt her about 15 weeks. It will happen soon, I promise. 11 weeks is still a little to soon (even for a 2nd pregnancy) to feel the baby move. Give it a few more weeks. Congratulations!

Hi M.,
with my first pregnancy seven years ago I felt my daughter very early, I would say I felt like bubbles during the 8th week and definite movement by week 12th .

I'm pregnant right now and I'm on week 16th and I haven't felt the baby move yet. funny because I saw her/him swimming happily during all the ultrasounds.

so with my second pregnancy has not been easier to tell,

so it's very possible that the fluttering you're feeling right now is, in deed, your baby, how exciting! congrats!!!

I didn't feel my baby move until after 20 weeks- I want to say it was between 20 and 22 weeks.

With my second I did feel her sooner than my first. You kind of know what's going on because you've been through it once already.

Congrats~

Congrats! With my second I felt him move and thought I was crazy but at 12 weeks I know without a doubt that I felt him move. My sister didn't believe me either. I did some reading and you can feel it at around 12 weeks so congratulations you felt your baby move!
