When do you feel the baby move from outside?

[Vicky_Gazerimmer]

I was laid on the sofa earlier and regular as clockwork I start to feel baby move at about 10.30.
I put my hand on my tummy and as I felt it move inside I felt it move outside too. I asked my OH to out his hand on my tummy where I felt the baby and without telling him what he was looking for he said a few mins later, whats that faint rolling sensation?
Which was the exact time the LO was moving.

Is it too early to faintly feel baby from outside?

I felt my first movements at 17 weeks, OH could feel it about 10 days later so I'd say that's what it was. It's a fab feeling isn't it! I had a bath earlier & bubs was kicking & making ripples in the water!

It's not too early at all.

I didn't feel anything until 24 weeks though. It varies from person to person!!

 

[sarah113]

i felt movements from the outside around 19 weeks

 

[kirlykird]

No, not too early, my OH could feel around the same time too

Poo to you all! Swear to god my little girl must be active in my sleep as I hardly ever feel her move on the inside let alone feel anything on the outside!!!

 

[Jayceesmumma]

thanks for your replies girls, my OH was so happy last night that he could finally feel LO moving. Now he's all excited about the scan next week (I am too but nervous)

Yeh I was 18 and im 5'10'' and I dont really look preggers either, Im starting to thiniki I will never look preggers or feel the baby move

 

[Kat@girlracer]

You might be having a girl like me then!

I'm going to book my anti natel appointment with my gp tomorrow for next week and hopefully they'll put my mind at rest that she's alright in there....

Kat its only since around 30 weeks I felt anything from the outside, and OH has only felt it twice

I was panicking about feeling inside, and even now its still very gentle with the odd thud, I think it was around 27 weeks....

It could be position of baby, I think baby kicks towards my back alot of timexx

 

[Kat@girlracer]

Ahh thanks hun! Thats made me feel sooooooooo much better!

Spose its better then kicking your bladder huh!?

 

[amy]

oooooo so glad ive read this it has put me mind at rest, thought i had little movement a week ago, think it might have been wind i have no pregnant tum yet and my little man wont budge, my 15 month kicked me tum the other day really hard when i was changing her nappy, thats playing on my mind a bit, do you think it would have harmed baby???? corr this pregnancy thing is a very worrying time

I'm 27 weeks pregnant and my partner still hasn't been able to feel the baby move. I'm dying for him to feel a kick as it is such a special feeling, I don't want anyone else to touch my belly until he has felt it move. I keep on placing his hand on my belly, when to me it feels really obvious the baby is moving, but he never feels anything!

Typical, working as a postman has obviously numbed his hands!!
