when did your partners feel baby kick?

[Tinkerbell21]

My little girl (seems so real writing this) has been really kicking for weeks but my partner still isnt feeling her. when did your partners?

my mum and sister wanted to try and feel today but i said no, i really want my partner to feel first. Does that sound weird? I just dont want them to feel her and for him to get jealous (dont think he would but dont think i would like it if i was him)

with DS DH never really felt his movements but with this little monkey, because my placenta is at the back, DH felt his movements from about 22 weeks and I have felt him moving from 12 weeks. Have also started to see him doing alien style moves across my belly recently as well which is really weird lol

My OH felt him from 18 weeks but that was cos while I was sleeping he had his hand on my stomach for ages and finelly felt him move!! You have to be patient as it takes much longer for other people to feel them!

Just now!!! He kind of did on Sunday, but didn't believe it was, and that I had laughed and that's what he felt. But I said, ooh, kick, so I went and sat next to him and put his hand there and we spent about 20 minutes. He's still not quite sure that he did, I guess it's the same as when we start feeling it, you're not quite sure at first cos you don't know what it's meant to feel like.

Had a few tears when he felt, but didn't when I first did, don't know why!

i have felt Noas kicks since i was 15 weeks but OH have never had a kick when he has been awake (he get plenty when hes sleeping with hand on my tummy)
He does get to feel his bum and shape now tho but no really movements. Alot of other ppl have felt him kick tho, but i was like you wanted OH to feel it first but gave up after a while

My OH felt our son at 18 weeks. I was lay on my back really still and I could see the kicks so he put his hand there and felt the kicks.

It's only really been the last 2-3 weeks my hubby has felt it, although i've been feeling movement from 18 weeks.

They'll only get stronger and he will have to be patient, oir little pink bump seems to stop moving when his hand lands on my belly, so has to wait a while for her to get going again! Maybe this is a sign she will be a nightmare for me but as soon as daddy is aroind she'll be all calm and good as gold

Last time I was pregnant I didn't feel movements until 23weeks and DH could feel them maybe 3 weeks after that (and later on could see my stomach move too!!) I'm 21 weeks and have movements for ages but really want DD and DH to be able to feel them soon. Not too long from now I hope ...

However DH has just annouced he is not bothered anyway cause he thinks its creepy (he managed to keep this to himself last time!!!) ((
