What Does a Baby's Movement Feel Like?

I'm feeling periodic pressure on the inside of my tummy. It feels like a localized poking feeling from the inside, not at all like a fluttering feeling I've heard others described as the baby moving.

Does this sound like the baby's movement? Or should I get this checked out? I'm 20 weeks along.

TIA!

It could very well be the baby moving. Chat Icon When I was pregnant with DS, I felt something similar to what you are describing and then a couple of weeks later I felt the "flutters". Is it painful or accompanied by any other symptoms? If not, it's probably the baby moving. If it will give you peace of mind, call your doctor and have it checked out just to be sure.

I haven't felt "flutters" either...just poking and throbbing. It sounds like your baby is moving in there!

I didn't really get flutters, either. I felt some "buzzing" at around 16 weeks, but I didn't feel anything again for awhile. Now I feel Chat Icon every single day. I get pokes and jabs, and sometimes it feels like someone's rolling around in there. Chat Icon

Thanks!

It's not really painful but it's quite noticeable and distracting! Gotta stop eating those MM's! :D
