Does this sound like baby kicks/movement?

Question

I can't figure out if I'm feeling baby move or if it's something else. I'm 18w3days and for the past week or so I have felt what I think it movement, but it hasn't been flutters or quick jabs like I have heard kicks be described. It almost like I feel baby pushing on an area of my abdomen for like 10-15 seconds at a time. And sometimes it almost feels like a rolling motion. I don't want to read too much into it if it's just gas or something like that, but I can't help but feel like it's baby moving. Anyone else had similar feelings?

Answer

Yeah, for weeks I assumed the poking & rolling sensations I was feeling were just muscle spasms because I was waiting for butterfly flutters. But my baby's movements NEVER felt like butterfly flutters. More like squirms & sliding-around feelings.

Answer

My first thought when I could feel him, was it felt like a super tiny muscle spasm(like the ones you get on your knee, that goes away when you look at it) just inside where i guessed the baby were.

Answer

My first movements felt like popping in my stomach. And it was super early & I would tell everyone I can feel the baby moving and kicking & they thought I was crazy cause I was around 15 weeks but I know what I felt & sure enough the popping turned into defined movement. So you absolutely could be feeling baby!

Answer

It could well be baby moving, I started feeling popping sensations at around 17 weeks first but the more defined it's become the more distinct the movements are. I can definitely feel when my baby rolls over or moves around and the only way I can describe it is like a heavy rolling sensation.
