What is the earliest you can feel the baby move?

I didn't go to the doctor yet and I am wondering if I am farther along then I think. I will be 9 weeks on Tuesday and I have been feeling the baby move all week. This is my 3 pregnancy so I know I am feeling the baby. I know 8 weeks is too early to feel the baby though.

Could you be a month off? I know they say you can feel it earlier with each PG, but 8 or 9 weeks is way too early. I began feeling DS at 14 weeks and he was my first.

I don't think the baby is big enough at 8 weeks for you to feel them. Like the pp mentioned, maybe you are further along than you think. With this being your third child I'm sure that you would be on the beginning of the spectrum of feeling the baby... maybe 13 weeks?

I began feeling at 19 weeks.

Unfortunately there is no way you're feeling the baby at 9 weeks pregnant, so it's definitely more likely that you're further along than they thought, or it's just gas/growing pains.
According to babycenter.com your baby is only an inch long, about the size of a grape. Here's a link: 9 week info
