Hi Girls,

I've been reading alot of people saying that are feeling flutters... im 15 weeks + 1 and its a really stupid question but what do these flutters feel like?
I know every womans different but im sooo desperate to feel something to make the pregnancy feel real esp since the MS has disappeared now!!

I had movements for about a week when i wa 16weeks i think but i didnt want to believe it was the baby because i thought it could be wind.

When i was 17weeks i was lying in bed and felt a tap from the inside. It felt like a rain drop hitting a puddle that was really warm. it was just one or two when i was lying down and it was quiet and now i feel them when im sat down or lying down, but when im walking about i dont notice any movements.

and im a size 10 was an 8 and always had a flat belly until now, i can feel a lump where the baby is and sometimes if i put my hand in the right place i fel her turning... thats only with my hand i dont notice the movement by itself.

Its the best feeling in the world... you will be smiling for days when you 1st feel the baby

Sort of like if you brush a feather lightly on your skin, but from the inside I had that at about 15 weeks and now I get occasional taps, which is like someone gently flicking you from inside or like a muscle spasm - when your eye involuntarily twitches etc

Like... well you know when you get a roll of gas through your intestine? Its like that, but more localised in the womb and some what friendlier, it really is very very light at first, i didnt feel Jasper kicking until around 22 weeks, but i have already felt the first signs of this little one... i think just because i am aware of where exactly it will be felt.
