When will my SO feel the baby

Question

I'm 24 weeks pregnant and I've felt the baby move at about 20 weeks. I've felt her move around like crazy, she kicks me so hard some times that it startles me. My husband has yet to feel her move and I can tell that he's starting to get a bit discouraged. When was it your SO felt your baby for the first time?

Answer

My S/O could feel it the day I felt it for the first time at 18 weeks. Just little thumps but he was able too. As I got further along it's gotten a little harder because every time it's happening I'll be like oh he's kicking and right when he goes to feel my little guy stops. It's hard because you have no idea when the baby is going to do it so it isn't like you can have his hand there. It'll happen I'm sure he just keeps missing it.

Answer

I started feeling my little boy at 16w. My hubby didn't feel the first flutter/roll til about 22w and he wasn't quite convinced. 
I laid down last night and he put his hand pressing into my lower abdomen and got a solid kick!! 25w, little boy finally gave him a little wallop! :)
You have to be calm and still, depending on your placenta placement too, it may be harder to find a spot hubby can feel.

Answer

I felt mine kick at 17 weeks and by 17+3 both me and my husband could see/feel them from the outside.

Answer

Is he just missing her kicks? Try laying on your side and have him press on your abdomen (kind of like the same pressure your dr uses to find the baby's heartbeat) then just be patient lol

Answer

He may be feeling things and not noticing. It took my husband a few weeks before realizing what he thought was heart beats were kicks.

Answer

I heard drinking cold water and touching, scratching your belly can make baby move. Have him keep his hand on your belly the entire time. He's got to be patient I suppose. Im still on my first trimester with my first, so no experience here. But can't wait... 😍

Answer

My husband is impatient when waiting for him to kick and always misses it. I've felt him since 18wk, but it took him to 27 to feel him 😂

Answer

I felt mine at 20 weeks and he felt it two days later
