How far along in Pregnancy before you start to feel the baby?
Tami G asked:
I am just curious, because I swear that last night I felt the fetus move, but I am not sure, as it’s my first pregnancy. So, just wondering how far I’d have to be before I would be able to feel any movement.

16-20 weeks typically, though some are sooner, and some later.

Around 4 months you will start to feel bubbles in your stomach like you have gas. That is the baby.

I was 16 weeks

The average is 20 weeks. Some women, particularly those who are very slender or who have had children before, can feel the baby move sooner. Heavier women or first time moms sometimes don’t feel baby til later. Anything from 16-23 is still in the normal range.

you should be able to feel your baby move around 3 months.

I started to feel my son move around 15 weeks. The average woman will feel their baby move between 14 and 20 weeks.

I felt my baby move at 12 weeks. It felt like a little flutter in my stomach.

Usually about 15-20 weeks but everyone is different, for a long time I thought I was just feeling gas bubbles and then when they did the ultrasound the tech said did you just feel the baby move? and i was suprised to realize that that was what it was

I remember my first pregnancy I felt the baby move during my 4th month and the same with my second. My third… the first time I felt the baby was as early as 14 weeks!

Usually in the 4th month of pregnancy you can feel what is called quickening. At first it feels like a soft flutter, like a butterfly is loose in your tummy, but later on you will definitely know its the baby, when he kicks you in the ribs or the bladder. Congratulations on the pregnancy. I hope you have an easy one and deliver a healthy child.

I’m on pregnancy three now. I’ve always felt on averge between 16 and 22 weeks.
April 20th, 2009 at 12:45 pm
With my first I was 4 months. If you think you felt it, now you will be more in tune with the stuff that’s happening down there. If you feel it a couple more times you’ll know for sure. With my second, I felt it at 12wks because when it happened, I knew the feeling and knew what it was. Congrats! Enjoy the flutters now cause the kick in the ribs during the middle of the night in a few months aren’t so inviting!

I first felt my baby move was at 21 weeks. Maybe there were some movement before that but I didn’t realize it until the 21st week. It was so amazing. I never stop talking to him since the I felt the first move until the very last moment of my pregnancy. He’s 8 months now.

With my first child i was about four maybe five months. It feels like a flutter in your stomach almost like a butterfly. It’s hard to know exactly in your first pregnancy because you’ve never felt it before. It’s always exciting just the thought of it isn’t it!

about 4 months and you will know it is the best feeling in th e whole world
