I started feeling my baby kick around
21-22wks (I'm also on the heavier side).
It starts out kinda like butterflies, but
in your lower abdomen. Gradually, they
will become KICKS. My daughter liked to
stick a foot into my rib and just leave it
there for awhile, lol.
I was around 20 weeks when I felt my first
child move. I'm now nearly 17 weeks
pregnant with my second baby & I've
felt the first little kicks over the past
week. You usually recognise movements
sooner with subsequent babies because you
know what to expect.

Im 20w1d now, and just started feeling
movement that im sure is from the baby.
before (around 16 weeks until now) i
thought i felt her, but wasn't certain
(also, i was so intent on feeling
something that i may have been imagining
it...). it differs from woman to woman and
from what i understand, depends on your
size. i have a petite frame and am 5'5",
if that helps at all.
i love babies la la la

I honestly started feeling flutters I KNEW
were the baby at like 13 weeks but you
probably won't notice them unless you're
constantly concentrating and trying to
debunk any other feeling of "movement." I
felt my first kicks at exactly 16 weeks
which felt like bubbles popping. My hubby
felt him move at 20 weeks, and his
movements have pretty constant since then!
(23 weeks now)

I just started feeling flutters this last
week. No kicking yet, but little flutters,
but usually when I'm laying down and
concentrating on it, otherwise i'd never
notice it.
