First movements..

So lately I've Been feeling weird sensations. Almost like an air bubble in my stomach. I'm not sure if it's the baby or another bodily function. Did you girls ever confuse it and how did you figure out that it was the baby? It's so hard to tell sometimes.

Re: First movements..

It could be your baby. Does it feel like popping popcorn (mmm... popcorn)? That was what most people liken it to. Hoping it is the baby!

Re: First movements..

Some people describe first movements as either butterflies or bubbles. For me that's how it started with DS.

But this time, I've been feeling thumps. Not sure if it is because they are bumping into each other in there LOL But it is very inconsistent and I don't feel it every day. I am 17 weeks and I have only really noticed it twice.

Re: First movements..

That sounds like the baby to me.

I started feeling her at 17 weeks exactly but really only once a day for like a second, just like a little pop or pulse.

At 19 weeks, DH says he felt her once, but it was really at 23 weeks when it became undeniable that it was the baby!
