When have some of you first felt
flutter's?? If I am already feeling them
could I be further along than I thought??
I know it's not gas, I have never felt
this before in my life!!!! I am just
unsure on when you begin to feel these??
Not to mention that my belly is alot
bigger than the week's that my doctor
said! Family and friend's are beginning
to see the difference and I am already in
maternity clothes. I haven't ate that
much and I have been watching my weight.
It just keep's growing and
growing..Lol.....But I was just wondering
when it was normal to first feel
flutter's?? Could some mother's out there
help me out? When did most of you begin
to show and what not? And begin maturnity
stuff? I have heard that it is very rare
to begin all that at 2-month's and that
most women don't begin to show until
mid-of 3rd month to end of 4th month?

How far along are you??? I felt flutters
about 17 weeks.....I thought I had at 12
but it was just gas. Haha. Gas feels
different when your pregnant. At least it
did to me.

If I conceieved when I "know" I did I
would be beginning the 15th week, baby at
12week's...Doc say's I am 12weeks..Give or
take 7day's, making baby either 10 or 11,
that's why I think I am further along. I
have had "alot" of gas...Lol.....But this
feeling is totally different!!! It is
hard to explain!! I laugh every time,
cause it's something I am not used to, gas
on the other hand..Lol...I don't laugh too
much..Hehe....I have heard that my baby
might be a few cm's smaller than normal,
causing date's to be off. I deffinetly
have a pregnant bump also!!!!

I felt it at about 17 weeks. I knew what
it was b/c I kept feeling it. Now I am
35 weeks and what used to be little
flutters feel like the baby is trying to
bust right through my stomach

Have you thought about the possiblity of
twins? That would cause you to be showing
more quickly!

I didn't feel proper movements and
'flutters' until 20-21 weeks. But it is
definitely true that gas feels different
when you are pregnant, presumably because
as the uterus grows and fills up more
space it alters the position of other
organs and bits of intestine! I felt
bubbling and rippling and things that felt
like it could be baby movements from as
early as 12 weeks but once I felt the
"real thing" I realised that the previous
feelings were gas. So whilst yours may be
very early movements it wouldn't suprise
me if they were actually just gas at this
stage. I started to get a bloated abdomen
as early as 8 weeks and to me it was
obvious I was pregnant but to anyone who
didn't know me they would never have
noticed. The real bump started to look
really obvious at about 15-16 weeks when
it seemed to pop out over night! Now at
24 weeks I look really pregnant!

Twins run on both his and my
family..Ahhhhhhhh...Lol.......I have had
women come up to me in places such as a
grocery store and ask when I was due and
also had friend's visit who all talk about
my cute belly..Lol...But other people at
my parent's church and old work places
have deffinetely noticed the "bump".
They did an ultrasound that showed only
one fetus..Is it possible that they can
overlook another one?? I am deffinetly
popping out and as far as constipation I
have no problem's with that and take stuff
doctor's told me to so I don't have that
problem. But twins are a possibilty but
I have only seen one baby?!!

Hey I say you probably are just intuned
with your body. Some peole just notice
things alot more. So just go with the
flow. Your little one could be just very
active. But just enjoy it because there
is nothing else in the world that feels as
amazing as feeling your baby move. :p

I felt it for the first time at 17 weeks.
It felt like someone touched me from the
inside. More recently I have felt it
again. This time it felt like a twitch,
but I could tell that my muscles didn't
move or twitch.

With my second child I was in maternity
clothes at 6 weeks, and I wasn't "heavy".
I was definately showing. Sometimes
your uterus just knows where to go, but
this is usually in subsequent pregnancies;
but we are all different. I felt
movement with both my second and third
child at 11-12 weeks, and I knew the
difference between gas and movement by
then!!! It was faint, but it was there!!
I don't think you are losing your mind.
