My baby's movements felt like little
muscle twitches or spasms. Now that i'm
21 weeks 5 days they feel like little
thumps. I still cant differentiate
between a kick or a punch but its
definitely regular movement. I know when
my son is asleep and I know when he's
awake. He's awake like 9am-4pm and then
he's awake again at like 10pm-3am

Hey
ya, I would said movement felt like a
muscle spasm to me too.
Soon you should be able to feel the baby
kick when you put your hand on your lower
stomach.. That is really neat, specailly
when you can see you stomach move :)

Im 22 wks preg and when I first felt it- I
didnt know that it was the baby. It was
kinda like if I thought it was gas, I
would wait to see if I farted. If I didnt
then I would know it was the baby. I
know thats silly but it was the only way.
Then about week 19 or 20 I could really
tell. It got stronger. Now I can
actually see my belly twitch when bean
kicks.. Its great
