When mother can feel baby movements during pregnancy?
Im going through 17 weeks and still i havent felt any movement, just keep waiting for it the whole day. My cousin says she felt around 5 months matlab im worrying for nothing? When did u all first feel ur baby?
This is something I am so excited to experience someday! I hear from my friends that it feels like bubbles popping in the stomach around the 5th month. Is that how it actually feels?
Normally, u will feel the first flutters, called quickening, between 18 and 24 weeks. If it's your second baby, u might even feel it a bit earlier around 16 weeks. Just lie down quietly after a meal, you'll feel it soon!
In our family, elders say you feel it by the fifth month, and that's exactly when I felt my first kick. But my doctor told me that if your placenta is anterior, it can take up to 22-24 weeks to feel anything clearly, which is also very normal.
Usually around 18 to 22 weeks u start feeling those tiny flutters! Now in my third trimester, it feels less like flutters and more like a full-on football match inside my belly, especially when I'm trying to sleep!
It is a beautiful feeling and usually happens between 18 to 20 weeks for first-time moms. Don't worry if it takes a bit longer, every pregnancy is different.
