Hi guys,

I've only posted a couple of times on this thread, but read everyday at lunchtime at work! Am almost starting to feel like stalker coz I know so much about you all, and you don't even know I'm here, so thought it was about time I joined in.

Just a quick question, for those of you in second/third trimester. I'm just 18 weeks pregnant with my first, and although I think I'm feeling squirmy feelings in my tummy, I'm not sure if it's the baby or if it's something else (gas? ) . Can you guys remember when you first started feeling the baby properly, and what it felt like?

I know it's probably still quite early, but am so impatient!!

Thanks,

Gillby x

Hi Gillby! You can feel movement anytime from 16 wks according to my little book thing
I thought i felt movement at times around 18wks, but i think the first real thing i felt was a massive kick when i was 21/22 wks.

Mine felt like small muscle twitches, now they feel like big muscle twitches lol x

Thanks Evansangel.

Twitches - that's exactly what it feels like. Sometimes i blame it on eating too much lunch, but other times i let myself think it's the baby!

Can't wait till i can be sure!

EA - no I am hating work, and all my plans for the weekend seem to be falling apart

Gillby - welcome I DEFFO felt movement when I was as far as you I am feeling LOADS more now (I am 24+4), but I def felt stuff at 18 weeks

gillby , they say its like butterflies in your belly , and that is the first movements you feel , then everyone is different but from about 20-22 weeks you will start to feel proper kicks , at the o at 26 +5 i have lots of hiccups from my little man

No its cos he is buying the cot and the changer for me.

We are going with OH, me, mam, him and his wife, me and OH are buying the mattress and the wardrobe and some curtains.

He is going to meet us there at 10-ish

Thats the hormones ramping up sweetie - have a little cry if it helps and lol at the "i work for the millitary" bit - i want to say "keep a stiff upper lip" lol. I get emotional over the silliest things - i was crying this mornign because i saw a santa on the tv and realised next christmas we will have a lo - well maybe even this christmas if it is early:D

Baby has finally decided to riot :j- that was a long wait (figured something was up at 7pm last night)

But the bliming specialist light and fitting for my torties pen (who is still poorley:rolleyes:) has broken and they are bliming difficult to get hold of quickly and expensive - tried trawling the net but 5-7 working day delivery is no use so please send some sunny day vibes so i can put him outside :cool:- i know its november but we can try:rotfl:Better go and eat some lunch before i get kicked anymore:D
