Can someone please describe what the first movements feel like?

Question

I've seen things online about butterfly's, but as I'm laying on my side I've felt like a strange sensation in my lower ab. Ummm think about how jello wobbles, a little like that but deep within?!

Could that be movement or is some other bodily function working?

Answer

when I was 13 weeks I felt the weirdest little fluttery butterfly feeling in my stomach, I asked my doctor and she said most likely it was just the baby making a big adjustment

Answer

feels like a goldfish swimming in a plastic bag and bumping the sides but the sides are your lower abdomen! just started for me this week. (15weeks)

Answer

I felt it today! So amazing! Imagine tapping your fingers on your arm in a row and it was like that from the inside of the bottom of my belly!

Answer

I'm swear I feel a random poke every now and again.
With my first daughter I remember thinking, "Why didn't I feel flutter or light taps." It was just straight pokes and kicks for me. Lol It feels like something gliding on you from the inside. Once you feel it you'll know! You could even watch your belly and possibly see your belly move as you feel it!

Answer

I'm 18 weeks and got my first proper kicks today, it firstly felt like little bubbles popping in my stomach like gas or my stomach was rumbling. I then put my hand there quickly and felt her kick! I wasn't too sure what It was to begin with

Answer

Mine felt like gas bubbles (with my first). I thought that's what it was until they got a little more pronounced and I figured out what I was feeling. I started feeling then around 14-15 weeks the first time (6 years ago). I'm almost 15 weeks now and haven't felt anything except for ridiculous bloating and round ligament pains. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Answer

You know the fluttery feeling you get in your chest when you're nervous or really excited? I've felt something like that in my lower abdomen a couple of times when I've been laying on my stomach. Not sure if it's the baby or not, but I've never felt it before in my life.

Answer

I felt it a couple of times last week and I just hit the 12 week mark. Felt like a little flutter that lasted into a second or two. Hi baby 😄😍

Answer

I'm almost 13 weeks and the other day I was walking and all of a sudden it just felt like a l bag was moving around in my lower middle abdomen.

Answer

For me with #1 it felt like popcorn popping inside my belly around 14/15 weeks. Haven't felt a whole lot yet w/ #2..13+4
