20 weeks and feeling the baby move

after the past few weeks of anxiously waiting to feel these flutters everyone keeps speaking of, this past week I've been finally feeling them! it's great that I now can actually identify that, yes, it is the baby and not other stomach thing going on lol

my next question is... how long after you start feeling the baby on the inside can you feel it on the outside? I could've SWORN when I felt the baby thus morning and I put my hand on my stomach I felt something but I think it's my mind playing tricks on me Chat Icon

It's definitely different for everyone. I think it has to do with both the baby and your body type. For those of us like me who have "more room" for the baby to move (aka more of a gut lol) I think we don't feel the baby move as much from the outside until he/she is a little bigger. My little girl moves all day- seriously she doesn't stop!! And I have only felt it from the outside 2 or 3 times (I'm a little over 24 weeks)

For me, it was probably around 20 weeks. By the time I was able to tell the difference between the baby and gas lol, I was pretty much able to feel it on the outside.

20 weeks and feeling the baby move

I'm 22 weeks and some days right now and I felt the movement from the outside for about 2 weeks. It's just never predictable enough for me to tell someone to feel my stomach and they feel the baby too.

20 weeks and feeling the baby move

DH just felt her kick last night for the first time. I'm 23 weeks now, started feeling the flutters at about 20 weeks. Some of her kicks are more "aggressive" so they can be felt stronger. But I started out just feeling the flutters at night and now she's moving around all day. It's awesome!
