When did you FEEL pregnant?

Oreobaby · #1 July 16th, 2009, 01:31 PM

I am just over ten weeks...and I KNOW I'm pregnant...I've seen my little gummi bear, I saw his/her heart beat, I know that I am pregnant....but I don't feel pregnant. It sounds horrible, and I know all you women that are suffering with 1st trimester things are saying in your heads..."are you nuts girl, enjoy it while you can!!" but other than extreme fatigue, and some gagging, I have been feeling normal. I have only had one dizzy spell the entire prenancy, and I was sitting, so it wasn't much...in January when I was CONVINCED I was PG, I had more symptoms than I do now. LOL...so my question to you girls is...when did you all feel pregnant!! (again, sorry to those girls who have been having rough first trimesters with morning sickness and the whole 9 yards!!!)

I still don't really feel pregnant and I'll be 13 weeks tomorrow.. I got nauseated once in awhile early on and I'm tired.. but nothing that is like OMG I'm so pregnant. But I've had multiple ultrasounds so I KNOW I am.

When I was throwing up/sick every day!!!! But after that went away I didn't *feel* pregnant again until I could actually feel the baby move and my stomach grew

Right around 6 weeks when the nausea started. Plus I would be so tired at night that I rarely made it past 8 or 8:30pm without falling asleep on the couch.

I really felt it at about 32 weeks, I never had morning sickness or any other bad symptoms, and I slept better and due to the vitamins and eating healthy I felt better than before. It was when my belly started to get in the way and I had to get up to pee every night that I really knew!!

I'm almost 17 weeks and just starting to actually feel something, but it's still not constant.

For me it was right around 15 weeks when I started to feel the flutters.

even though i really sick and really tired in the beginning i still didnt "feel" pregnant. i mean i very obviously was but it just didnt seem like there was actually a baby in there. i never really felt preggo until i started feeling her move and that was around 22 weeks. now she moves all the time and my belly feels soo stretched out...so there is no denying it.

I felt pregnant when I felt awful but otherwise around 15/16 weeks when I felt little flutters and definitely at 18 weeks when the kicks started!

3rd trimester. I felt great through my whole pregnancy, and movements were like gas bubbles for a while.

Feeling Alice really move about at around 16ish weeks, it started to sink in more. But in the third tri., when my sciatica was so awful I could barely walk, and my belly was HUGE... thats when it really was REAL haha!

I had a really easy pregnancy at first so I wouldn't say I "felt" prego until my 20 week ultrasound. After that I started feeling movement. I was pretty big at 20 weeks too. Before 20 weeks was a breeze for me. I didn't even know I was having twins! lol.

Now at 5w4d...pretty much for a good week now I've felt pregnant. This nausea is very hard to ignore...

*Mommy2Camden* · #14 July 16th, 2009, 07:05 PM

I felt pregnant when I was puking everyday for 6 weeks straight!!!

Now, I feel pretty "normal" other than having to pee ALL the time. Every woman is different. Maybe you're one of the lucky ones!!

Micksbabe · #15 July 16th, 2009, 07:09 PM

I didn't really feel pregnant until i heard the heartbeat for the first time and felt the first little flutters!!! it will hit you at some point don't worry

fromustobaby · #16 July 16th, 2009, 07:25 PM

Its weird, isnt it, I dont *feel* PG at all...I keep grabbing my BBs, cause they are sore, and that is the ONLY PG *feeling* I have - not that much more tired, dont really have too pee that much unless I drink a lot, not neaseuos, ummm, baby - knock, knock - are you there?

Gray_baby · #17 July 16th, 2009, 07:50 PM

Probably when I really started the baby move! Before that I had nausea from weeks 6 to about 10ish, I had lots of fatigue in the first trimester, now I have minor hip aches and minor backaches (also had in my first trimester) but I really started feeling pregnant when the baby started moving around 17 weeks or so.

SassyMama · #18 July 16th, 2009, 08:28 PM

I didn't really "feel" pregnant until 20 weeks when I was sure it was her kicking and not just gas.

..Christine.. · #19 July 16th, 2009, 09:11 PM

probably not until I really started feeling movement- I mean i was nauseous and really tired in the first trimester but it still didn't 'feel' real- in fact nothing felt real until my gender ultrasound! Now I really feel pg!

I am just now starting to feel pregnant...but it is sort of a gradual thing for me, some days I REALLY feel it, others I am distracted/busy and don't even think about it. Having my belly start to grow more is helping, but I think when I start to feel the baby move will be when it really becomes real to me once and for all
