Im 18 weeks and waiting so eagerly to feel my baccha move. Havent felt anything clear yet so getting a little impatient. Around which week did u first feel it?
Oh, I was constantly waiting and counting weeks, getting so anxious when I didn't feel anything by week 18! But honestly, most first-time moms only feel those light flutters around 20 to 22 weeks. Just lay down quietly in a room, you'll start feeling those tiny bubbles soon!
No need to keep worrying about it. Usually, the baby kicks start around the 5th month, between 18 and 22 weeks. If you want to encourage a kick, just drink a glass of cold water or sweet milk and lie down on your left side, it works like a charm.
When I was staying at my mummy's place, she told me that the baby starts moving around the 5th month. I felt the first soft butterfly flutters around week 20 while sitting with my family. It's such a magical family moment when everyone waits to feel the kick.
Arre, the baby is probably just practicing karate in there! You'll feel the first light taps around 18 to 22 weeks. Right now it feels like gas bubbles, but soon they'll be kicking your ribs like a football, so enjoy the peace for now!
I completely understand how stressful the wait can be, I used to check my belly every ten minutes! It's totally normal if you don't feel anything until week 21 or 22. Just trust your body and don't panic if your friend felt it earlier than you.
I felt the first movements around 19 weeks. Since I had gestational diabetes, my doctor told me to track kicks carefully in the later weeks after eating a balanced, sugar-controlled meal. Don't worry if it's early weeks, they are very light flutters initially.
Generally, you start feeling movements between 18 and 24 weeks of pregnancy. But if you are past 22 weeks and still haven't felt anything at all, it's always safest to check with your gynac. They can do a quick scan to reassure you that the baby is active.
