Im around 18 weeks and feeling these tiny flutters in my pet, like bubbles. Is this what people call flutter kicks or just gas matlab? First time mom here so everything feels new.
My doctor told me that flutter kicks are basically the very first tiny movements of your baby, usually felt around 16 to 22 weeks. They feel like little bubbles popping or a butterfly flapping its wings inside.
Cherish these tiny flutter kicks now, because by the 3rd trimester they turn into full-blown football matches inside your ribs! Enjoy this quiet phase while it lasts, trust me.
They are the sweetest little movements, like a gentle tickle from inside. I remember feeling them before my C-section delivery, and they are completely different from the hard kicks you get later.
Honestly, I panicked at first thinking something was wrong with my stomach, but then I realized they were flutter kicks! It is totally normal to feel them faintly in the second trimester, so enjoy this phase.
Ah, those early movements are just magical! They feel super light, almost like gas bubbles at first, but soon you will realize it is your baby saying hello.
