It's about that time... Who's starting to feel baby movements??
I'm 17w6 right now and today was the first day that I think I actually felt some substantial movement. I've felt a few twinges and flutters for the past week or two, but today got me really excited!! I'm going to ask at my next appointment where my placenta is in relation to the front of my tummy.
I've mostly had some sort of electric feeling twinges and an occasional swooshing feeling. I notice them in the same spots so I think it's movement. I'm 18w1 so who knows. I'm looking forward to the a/s on Friday to see where everything is and see if I'm really feeling movement or something else.
I'm 21w1d and started feeling a lot more this past week. Baby has had a couple parties in there. I have a posterior placenta this time whereas I had anterior placentas with both DS's and didn't feel this much yet.

I've been feeling baby move atleast a few times a day, minor movements, for about 2 weeks now... Way earlier than I did with G. I can't wait to feel it more consistently!!
I've started to feel some movement, mainly at night as I'm trying to fall asleep. I keep blaming DH telling him it's because he likes to rub my tummy and talk to them while we are in bed. Last night I was really grumpy and told him if he got them going he would be sleeping on the couch.
I felt the baby really early this time, sometime around 14 weeks. There was one day that he/she kept kicking me in the same spot repeatedly throughout the day. I've felt movement very sporadically since then. This LO likes to push itself really hard against the sides on my belly, so I can especially feel that when I'm sitting. Yesterday we were moving some stuff to our new apartment, and I felt the baby kicking when we finally got home and I could sit for a bit.
I started feeling flutters around 16 weeks. I felt kicks from the outside for the first time while laying in bed last night (and eating a grilled cheese, don't judge me!). It feels sooo early to be feeling outside kicks for me. I swear I was 24+ weeks before I felt it with my last 2.

I want grilled cheese in bed now.
I'm definitely feeling movement, and have been for almost 3 weeks. It started as flutters and now it's lots of poking and stretching. I had an anterior placenta with DS, and not this time, so I definitely felt it earlier.
I felt it for sure the first time during the NT scan, when they pushed down a bit with the wand and DD flipped over and swam away from it. It felt like a goldfish flipped over!
I probably won't feel kicks on the outside for a while, too much pre-existing fluff.
I'm 20 + 1 and it wasn't until almost 19 weeks that I was sure I actually felt her move. It feels like little knees and elbows ramming into me sometimes. I think I really starting feeling her around the start of week 18. It's so hard to tell at first!
She was crazy rambunctious the first few days I noticed her, and she's calmed down/or I'm less sensitive to it - not sure which. DH also felt her move when she was really pushing on me over the weekend. I was using the doppler and her movement interrupted the sound waves, so crazy!

18 weeks with my second and I started feeling movement around 12 weeks, which is crazy early since I didn't feel DS until 20. But I guess I know what I'm looking for this time around!

I still don't really have anything. Over the last week there have been times where I've thought "OMG Was that him?" but then it would stop and not happen again, so IDK.
I'm pretty sure at my NT scan they said I had an anterior placenta, so I'm not expecting to feel much of anything for a while. WHOMP WHOMP.

just little flutters here still, but they're a little more frequent sometimes (like when DH and I were at the movies the other night- LO was fluttering across my stomach almost the whole time). I am SO READY for some definitive kicks though- I promise I won't complain when this kid is using my bladder as a soccer ball because at least I'll know that he/she is doing ok in there.

Anterior Placenta here so I only feel lil man when he is jabbing my ribs or kicking to the sides of it. So its not all the time but I do feel him. I am guessing give it two weeks and I will wish he just didn't move at all to save me from the painful shots to ribs at night when I am sleeping. DD used to wake me from a dead sleep and leave me there in fetal position panting for 20 mins. lol Makes sense to why she is so aggressive now.
I have anterior placenta, but I've also been feeling some inconsistent movement. The nurse said sometimes anterior placenta isn't positioned entirely in front, so it's possible to get movement on one side or lower down or whatever. Mostly it's just been a random nudge or flip-flop feeling, but in the last few days, it's been several movements in a row, which is fun. Even though I know it's not supposed to be consistent yet, I still get nervous when I don't feel it for a while.

I'm definitely feeling her move but so far nothing that's able to be felt on the outside. Both DDs are dying to feel the baby, so I'm hoping that happens soon.
Just this weekend (I'm 18 weeks exactly today, FTM) I started noticing little "bubbles popping" and fluttering sensations that I'm pretty convinced aren't related to digestion. Exciting but weird!
I''m pretty sure I felt a couple of kicks during the a/s today. The lady was pushing the probe in pretty far/deep and baby girl was not having it. It was right where her little legs were all tucked up when she told us where everything is.
Until today, all the outside movement I've felt has been super low where I don't have as much fat (gross, sorry). This morning I was laying in bed with my hands on my stomach over my belly button and she kicked a few times there.
I've been feeling this little guy for about 5 weeks (22 weeks today). Placenta is on the front do he'd having fun abusing my kidneys, bladder and cervix.
