I am 16 weeks and 2 days pregnant and once
in a while my tummy tickles, like
something is tickling it, and its always
in a certain place....Is that the baby
moving???? It kinda feels like there is a
string or somethin tickling me, but there
is no string! Haha....What did you feel
when you felt your baby move? Did you
know right then it was the baby moving? I
still dont know if it really is the baby
moving or just a scratch there every once
in a while..

Hi there mom of five on hand here!!! You
are definately feeling the baby moving.
It sounds identical to the feeling I had
when I was about the same stage that you
are at! Enjoy!

It's great when you start feeling the baby
move, just wait till he/she really starts
kicking, I loved it!!
I don't know if you ever caught a
butterfly in your hands when you were
younger but that's what I found it felt
like when trey started kicking. :)

Yep !!!
That's definately it- I spent days tugging
at the front of my shirt, looking for the
loose thread that was tickling me before I
realized what was going on !!!!!
Congratulations

It Is Normal Not to Feel the Baby..... Posted: 08-04-05 13:04pm
It is normal not to feel the baby.....
Everyday in the beginning. Pretty soon
you'll be saying "hey could you slow down
a little, and please I need some rest"
cuz they always seem to want to move when
you want to sleep. If you are worried
about not feeling the baby a sprite
sometimes will get them moving . But I
am sure everything is okay. Im sure
everything is okay!!!
Sometimes they get where their limbs are
facing your back, therfore you would not
feel the tickles, or thumps or at least
not as much or as often. My babys moved
like crazy, but my girl less than the
boys. And when my daughter was pregnant
she felt baby move a lot around 15 to 25
weeks and then hardly felt her at all
after that. They had to do stress tests
and everything. And let me tell you now
shes out, she is on the go non stop 24/7.
She a year old and the most beautiful
baby, but exhausting let me tell you.
Thanks for the private message. Im doing
great. Glad to hear your almost 20 weeks
now. Great
keep us posted. Im glad you dint do the
amnicentesis. You shouldnt have anything
to worry about anyway.
Best of luck
