Hi, I was just wondering... I know that at 19.5 weeks I should be feeling flutters (and honestly I don't know what I have been feeling lately- this is my first) but I wanted to know when I should start feeling actual kicks? Anyone know? Thanks.

Hey... I felt the baby move at around 19 weeks.... It didn't feel like the baby was kicking me just like a tap or something... But they start to get stronger....After I eat I feel her tapping like crazy... I don't know what it would feel like if the baby kicked...Is a strong?...Could disguish it as kick... I am having trouble to trying to figure it all out

As the baby grows and gets larger you will feel actual kicks or an elbow or even his or her butt moving around. When I was prenant with my first two girls, I would lay down and actually see my belly move up and down. Very weird but so nice to know that there is someone in there.

I felt the actual kick between my 24th - 25th week of pregnancy. But my husband managed to feel the movement (like a strong heartbeat) from outside only on my 26th week of pregnancy. And my tummy started to react on my baby's movement (moving up, sideways, going round and wriggle) on my 29th week of pregnancy.

I am so supremely excited to feel all the kicks. I'm hitting 18 wks and nothing yet. For me to notice things they have to be all up in my face so maybe she does move alot, I dont know.
