I'm in my second trimester, and I'm eagerly waiting to feel my baby move. What exactly do baby movements feel like in the womb? Is it like flutters or something else? I want to know what to expect.
I have heard from elder cousins that it initially feels like tiny bubbles popping or butterflies fluttering inside. It sounds so beautiful and magical, I am eagerly waiting to experience this feeling someday soon.
In the beginning it's like a gentle tap, but as you get further along it becomes proper kicks. Please monitor them daily once u start feeling them regularly. If you ever feel fewer movements than usual, don't wait and contact your gynac immediately.
I am in my 20th week now and sometimes I feel these weird tickling sensations, is that the baby? I get so confused if it is just gas or actual movements. How frequently are you guys feeling it at this stage?
My little one is a toddler now but I still remember those kicks clearly. Early on it just feels like thoda fluttering, and sometimes you miss it if you are busy. Don't worry if it's not very strong yet, it gets very active by 28 weeks!
With my first, I felt it around 20 weeks, but with my second, I could tell by 17 weeks. It starts like gas bubbles, then becomes strong jabs later on. If you want to trigger movement, drink some cold water or lie down on your left side.
Oh, that first kick is the most emotional feeling in the world! I literally cried when I felt my baby move at 19 weeks, it felt like a tiny fish swimming inside. Cherish every single kick, it goes by so fast.
Early on it's cute like butterflies, but by 35 weeks it feels like a full football match inside your ribs, haha! Enjoy the gentle flutters now because later they will keep u awake all night, trust me.
