Movements

Was around 21 weeks for my first , this time much earlier x

Did you actually felt the movements or just flutters xx

Kicks from 21 weeks xx

22 weeks x

Flutters from 18 weeks (2nd pregnancy, anterior placenta) with my first is was more like 23 weeks, anterior again.

Can I ask are the flutters really obvious? As in how do you know they are the baby and not just normal stomach movements? I’m 19 weeks with an anterior placenta. I’m aware it might take me a few more weeks to feel anything but my midwife was making a big deal of that fact that I need to contact them if I don’t feel anything by 21 weeks.

@Sophie they feel like bubbles / butterfly feeling

@Sophie how do know that you’re not hungry or don’t have gas? 🤣

@Sophie just feels different , it’s hard to tell the first time round , easier to distinguish the difference after more pregnancies ! 😆is hard when first time xx

@Sophie thank you! That is helpful. I don’t think I’ve felt anything yet to be honest.

Do you think the twitches are movement or are these genuine stomach twitches? Anterior placenta too x

@Sophie don’t worry - I don’t think I have either x

Had an anterior placenta and felt nothing until about 23/24 weeks

@Sophie thats the exact question i ask myself. I’m 21 weeks anterior placenta with no movenents as in kicks

I’m 21 weeks with an anterior placenta (first pregnancy). I’ve only just on the odd occasion felt what I think could be baby.. like something poking me. But it isn’t regular or strong movements

I had my 20 week scan today and she said not to be surprised if I don’t feel anything until 24 weeks. I have an anterior placenta and first birth. Just if that helps anyone!

i felt him at 22+3 ish. i have an anterior placenta so it was light and late

I felt my first flutters at 23 weeks with my first born, currently 20wks +5 days with my second and started feeling movement at 20wks xx
