Feelings twins move for the first time?

Question

I’m 18+4 with di/di twins. I am positive I felt baby A move for the first time today. This is my first pregnancy. I haven’t felt baby B move yet. Is it normal to feel one and not the other right away? It makes sense not to, but it’s my first pregnancy, let alone with twins. So just wondering how many of you felt only one at first and how long it was before you felt the second one?

Answer

I have been feeling my boy move for a couple of weeks (at least I think it was him, based on his position at my most recent ultrasound) but only started feeling my girl move this week, at 22 weeks. Are you having Di/di twins? Do you know the location of their placentas? My girl had an anterior placenta which is why it took me longer to feel her move.

Answer

I’m almost 25 weeks and I still feel baby B way more. I didn’t actually feel baby a until probably a week and a half after feeling baby b. I think baby b is more active tho.

Answer

My doctor told me that even if I think I’m feeling a specific baby move that there’s no way to know because they’re constantly adjusting position. You might be feeling both and not know it!

Answer

I felt my girl first because her placenta is posterior. I didn’t start feeling my boy for a few more weeks because his placenta is anterior; now I feel him more often than girl.
