I'm so excited about feeling my baby move! In which month of pregnancy do most women start to feel the baby's movements, like flutters or kicks? I'm eagerly waiting for that special moment.
It generally starts around the 5th month, so don't expect miracles in the first trimester. If you are a first-time mom, it can take up to 20-22 weeks to actually recognize the movements.
I'm currently in my 18th week and still waiting to feel something clearly! Sometimes I feel bubbles but I'm not sure if it's just gas. When did others start feeling proper kicks?
With my twins, it felt like a boxing match started in my stomach around the 5th month! Usually, you start feeling those tiny flutters between 18 to 22 weeks.
I felt the first flutters around week 20 while resting after my evening walk. My doctor had allowed light walks, and sitting quietly after that really helped me notice the movements.
I felt this tiny butterfly flutter around week 19 and I actually cried! It is the most magical feeling in the world. Just wait till the 5th month, you will feel it soon.
For me, it started around the end of the 5th month, but I was so anxious waiting for it. It's a very emotional milestone, so don't worry if it takes a little longer, but do mention it to your doctor during scans.
