Hmm, I think it must have been right around 23w for us. I remember DH's face the first time he felt our DD. Chat Icon

ETA every pregnancy and woman is different so don't feel like there's something wrong if you haven't experienced something yet! We all go at different rates!

It was around 23 weeks for us too. Randomly, My husband felt the baby kick before I really knew I was feeling it. I'm 29 weeks now and my husband feels and sees it all the time and my sister has been able to feel the baby too.

DH felt our little girl kicking the other night, just shy of 21 weeks! Totally amazing Chat Icon

I think it's because she's really low and there's less padding there!!

It took FOREVER for us!! Keep in mind though that I didn't start feeling consistent movement till I was 25 weeks. Before that, it was very sporadic-DS was a mellow baby in my belly, and he's a mellow baby now!

I think it was 20 weeks for me . . .I am 24 weeks now and you can see the kicks, not just feel them. I am having two though, but I think it was the same with just DD.

ahh makes sense.
I feel my little girls all the time but when DH puts his hand there her doesn't feel it. So I'm assuming within the next few weeks he will.

I don't remember with my last pregnancy. With this one, my Ob said I have an anterior placenta, so I won't feel them as strongly.

i think mine was around 24 weeks, but she was a tease for a long time and would stop kicking any time anyone tried to feel it.

I feel that with DD I felt them sooner than now pregnant with twins! I am almost 22 weeks now and feel the patter of them kicking but it's not always consistent and not that hard. DH did feel it the other night though but he had to sit there for a while with his hand on my belly.

Funny - mine does the same thing! Any time I put my hand on my belly she stops. I like to think it soothes her, lol. Glas I am not the only one!

Re: When did LO's kicks get strong enough for others to feel?

I'm 19 weeks, and have been feeling flutters on and off since like 13w. I really don't know if it's just stretching, or if its the baby, because it started so early. But baby girl is SUPER active, and has a propensity to do somersaults and headstands and punches and kicks, so I wouldn't be surprised if it actually was her. I have a feeling I'm going to be hurting pretty bad once the movements get stronger! Chat Icon

I started to feel my little guy around 14-15 weeks (small flutters) so by 20 weeks they were full fledged punches and kicks. My DH probably started to feel him as well by 22 weeks.
