I think it depends on how big you are. I think smaller women feel their baby earlier. I was around 18 weeks or so. It first feels like little flutters or it may feel like little gas bubbles. Then it never stops!
Hope it happens soon

I am 18w 4d and felt my first real "kick"(don't really know what part of the body it was) tonight. I had been feeling her do flips for a few minutes and decided to put my hand on my belly and BAM!!! My mom said she probably head-butted my hand. I don't feel her move all the time. Usually when I am sitting or laying down.

I am 27 wks today and I havent actually felt "real kicks" but I do feel him moving around quite a bit daily. Lots of time it feels like the feeling you get when you go down a hill suddenly or something. It is so weird. But since I work third shift and sit down alot, he is always up and moving around then as well as a little bit during the day.

I was probably around 22wks when baby started 'kicking' me. Now (26wks) it seems it won't stop kicking, especially when I'm laying down or sitting. In fact yesterday, I felt it 'kick' near my bladder and under my ribs at the same time about 10 times, still trying to figure out the body parts. I think it was trying to stand up because it's breech right now.

I was probably about 22-23 weeks too when I felt the kicks. I'm 27 weeks today and I actually saw something sticking out of my belly earlier. toooo weird. He kept pushing. I'm pretty sure it was his leg but I can't be positive. That's the first time I saw that. Sometimes when I lay down on my back, my belly will shift from side to side too...it's hilarious.

oh yea, I'll lay on my back when it starts moving, at least 5 times (maybe more) it's do a nice hard kick and my entire belly will move! I think it's trying to get out the side... lol. I'm getting big enough now to where it's starting to, well punch it's breech, my ribs and it's not pleasant! And I know these are only love taps to what's gonna happen!
