Hi all

im new to this site and im just after a bit of advice, i was just wondering when everyone else can start feeling the baby move? I can feel him kick but no-one else can yet? Please can you advise me of your experiances.

Thanks

Hi Kate

I started feeling the flutters at 14 weeks and its my first so im quite lucky as many first time mums dont feel their baby move till about 20 weeks. Im 23 weeks today and the kicks still arnt as strong as i thought they would be. My partner has felt the baby move a few times but you have to catch it very quickly. Its usually the case that he will only kick for me but when anybody else tries to feel, it stops. Cheeky Devil.
But i havnt felt him/she move that much today. so im panicking myself.

Hope this helps

Hi Jodie

Thankyou for your reply it was much appreciated, i must admit i dont feel him everyday at the minute but my midwife told me not to worry its quite normal. when is your due date? How have you been feeling throughout? Do you know what your having?

Thanks x

Hey Hun

No problem, Im due October 7th, i dont know what were having yet as i want it to be a surprise. Ive had both scans and everything seems to be ok, but when i had my 20 week scan, the baby was hiding and was scrunched in a ball so even if we wanted to find out, the sonographer couldnt tell. To be honest, i think so far (Touch Wood) ive had an ok pregnancy. I only had a bit of morning sickness and i dealt with that pretty well. I had a Trapped Nerve in my right leg last week so was off work a couple of days but all in all im good.
How about you? Everything been ok?

Hey chick

I had a bit of morning sickness to but that passed by 12 weeks and apart from a few emotionally tears haha i feel on top of the world now and cant wait for my new arrival. I couldnt wait to find out wot we were having and i wasnt bothered as long as it was healthy and thank god he is. Its nice to talk to someone whos going through the same stages as me x

Evening hun

Hope your ok. I can sooo reason with you about the emotional tears. lol. There were a few weeks where i couldnt stop crying. Anything would upset me and i would get really down. I thought at one point i was going through pre natal depression but hey ho. Im fine now.
I really cant wait till the little one is here. Im starting the nursery next week. I keep getting all my books out and the things ive bought because im so excited. Still think that there is alot more to it than what they say in the books but im looking forward to every minute of it.
Have you decided on names yet? x

im feeling good at the min haha thank god, glad ur feeling better theres nowt worse than feeling down and crying all the time. I like archie ive always loved that name. Have you got any names planned? thanks x
