Baby's first movements?

Laura

Hi All,

I'm a FTM and almost 17w pregnant. I haven't felt anything like "kernels popping" or a "goldfish swimming", but I've been getting these little jabs in my lower abdomen/upper pelvis when I'm laying down. They aren't painful per se, but they aren't necessarily pleasant either. Could this be the baby? Or just growing pains? They aren't consistent.

Thanks!

The jabs are what I've felt since about 14 weeks, I'm also a FTM. I know it's the baby because they have gradually gotten stronger :)

Ok, I may need to take that back. I think I just felt the baby. 😳

Jabs sound like the baby. I get little thumps.

Growing pains/ round ligament pain. I'm 17 weeks and I also have it. Although we can't feel the limbs yet, I can definitely tell when the baby is putting its weight on different organs. 😳
