At first I didn't realize those "gas" feelings I was having was the baby moving. But like jamie says when they turn into real kicks, oh my lord, you will know!

At 15.5 weeks I got my first kicks. Then I went until 18 weeks without feeling anything. Now at 19 weeks, I can pretty much feel her daily. While they are kicks, I would describe them more as thumps since they aren't that hard yet.

Thanks for all the insights...It just feels so right havin felt the baby inside my tummy...:-)

I will be 16 weeks this coming tuesday. On saturday night while I was laying on the couch I felt a little thump right under my belly button. I am almost positive this was my little one. Last friday I had an ultrasound. The little one is laying stright up and down below my belly button. It was moving around in there like crazy! I got a nice foot shot because it put its little foot right up against my outter uterine wall. This all supports my belief that what I felt last night (saturday) was indeed the first real kick.
