There has been a lot of women in my DDC that are feeling movement already (we range from 13-16 weeks pregnant). I've heard first time moms feel it later, but even some of those who are first time moms are saying they can feel movement now. I've always thought movements didnt come until later...18 weeks or so, but I guess I'm wrong
I havent felt anything. Not a thing. Not even something that could possibly be baby...or gas.
When did you feel movement for the first time?

I had an anterior placenta, so it was about 20 weeks when I first started feeling things.

With my son, I was 15weeks. I haven't felt this baby yet though.
For first time moms it can range from 14-20 weeks. A little tip that works for a lot of ladies, lay on your back for a little bit, try to be as still as you can and put your hand on your belly. You wont feel the baby on your hand of course but it pushes down your belly some making it a little more easy to feel. I hope you feel your baby soon!

I'm almost positive that I felt Amara around 13 weeks but then everyone pretty much told me that it was impossible. I started to feel more distinguishable movements around 16-17 weeks, I think. Can't remember now, will have to check my journal.

It was 19-20 wks for me- that felt like bubbles- or a little hammer. Then around 22 wks I started feeling movements more.
I rememeber girls in my DDC said they felt it earlier too- I just ignored cuz I didn't want to think I should be. It will happen for u soon- and when it does  my favorite part of pregnacy!!!

Nothing until 18 weeks, and even then it was very sporadic (every few days) until 20 weeks.
I also felt like I was the last in my ddc to feel movement

I felt some tiny pokes around 15-16 weeks, but very subtle, and sporadic. I was probably 18 weeks before I could be absolutely, positively sure they were baby movements.

I was 20 weeks, I think I had an anterior placenta, which means nothing really other than it can delay you feeling movement because the kicks aren't out towards your front when the baby is that small. Maybe you have this as well. And even if not, it's totally normal for it to be around 20 weeks. Try not to worry!

16 weeks was the first time for me. It felt like a gas bubble. I didn't feel much more movement until around 19 weeks.
