What does it really feel like when the baby kicks?

I am in my 22nd week and am not sure if what I am feeling is actually the baby kicking? I feel a little bit of a flutter but it is very low, almost down near my bladder. Is it the baby or something else?

Sounds like the baby to me! I described it to DH as when you have an involuntary muscle twitch, like when your muscle kind of pulses. At least that's what it felt like to me.

Early on I felt it very low as well. It felt like tiny bubbles popping or a little muscle twitch.

I was always waiting for the bubble sensation, but to me it felt like a very soft knock...on the inside.

My kicking first felt like bubbles coming to the surface and popping. I now get distinct punches. And I'll get a buch at once and then she goes quiet for a while. It's crazy!

Mine felt like twitches. I thought it was something I ate, or a small muscle spasm, but it is Chat Icon !

Yep. This is exactly how I would describe it. It sometimes felt like little gas bubbles too. Now at 27wks the baby is stronger and they are def. kicks or punches..but early on it felt like twitches.

That's it ladies! That is exactly what I am feeling. Tiny little bubbles or muscle spasms very low in my abdomen. Wow! Very Cool! Thanks
