May I ask a question.

If I may ask all the twin mommies in here that are either further along or already had twins when did you start feeling the movements of your twins. I have heard people tell me as early as 11 weeks all the way up to 19 weeks..... Just wondering when all of you have felt your movements??

 

This is my first pregnancy so I'm not 100% positive but I think I felt slight movement around 15 - 16 weeks. I wasn't sure it was the babies until 20 - 21 weeks, I know at my 19 week 5 day appointment I was not feeling definite movement and my doc said that was pretty normal for a first pregnancy. Then about a week later I was really feeling them! They move all the time now!

 

I would have to agree with Aimee.

 

I didn't start feeling slight movement until around 17 weeks or so and then occasional movement around 19 weeks. I am 23 weeks now and feel them all the time.

 

Funny timing because I think I just felt them for the first time two days ago and then again yesterday! Two days ago, I was exactly 17 weeks. For me, I got a "butterflies in the tummy" feeling, and from what I've read that's what it feels like. I was pretty excited :banana:

 

I was feeling butterflies around 15 weeks or so, then felt real kicks around 17 or 18 weeks!!

I didn't feel movement until I was about 19 weeks.

 

This is my first pg -- so I may have felt them earlier and just not known that's what it was, but I KNEW it was them at about 18 weeks. -- by 20-22 -- they were thumping away quite regularly!

 

around 16 weeks... It feels like gas bubbles... 20 weeks for sure!

 

I felt movements early on around 12 weeks or so. I remember saying that it felt like little gas bubbles, but during one u/s was then told it was the boys moving already (we watched it). The movement is much more frequent and stronger now though.

 

This is my third pregnancy...so I started feeling "flutters" around 14 weeks. It hasn't been anything constant yet, although I know they're in there moving all around!

 

with my singletons I felt movement as early as 14weeks..With these 2 I didnt feel them till 21-22weeks..I have an anterior placenta and that blocks a lot of the movements..But they are moving and shaking now...lol

 

I didn't recognize any movement until 19 weeks with my twins. At 22-23 weeks I could feel it pretty constantly.

 

I really didn't start feeling anything til about 20 weeks...and then, only if I was laying down and concentrating on them. Now I'm 22w4d and I feel them all the time.

I kept reading about feeling them early...around 15-16 weeks so was really anxious to feel them. I think for most though it's around 19 - 20 weeks.

This is my first pregnancy and felt an actual kick at 18 weeks but didn't really feel anything after that until close to 20 weeks. Then I started to feel them more and more each day. I have been feeling them all day for the last 4 weeks and I am 26 weeks pregnant.

 

this is my first pregnancy and i felt them for the first time last week... but not much since then

 

This is my first pregnancy and one of my placenta's is anterior (at the front) but i still started to feel them at about 16 - 17 weeks, only once or twice every couple of days at that stage. It just felt weird, I thought it might have been gas, but looking back I think it was turning and twisting. It started to get more regular at about 19 weeks, and by then I was getting little pokes and prods that could not have been my bowels!!! And now (23 weeks) I feel them often.

 

I started feeling flutters at 13 or 14 weeks. The movements are much stronger now, and have actually woke me up a couple times.

 

I was about 19 weeks when I actually knew that it was the babies I was feeling. But I starting feeling flutters around 16 weeks.

 

Thank you everyone for your responses...I pray blessings over all your houses... God bless.

 

I felt "gas bubbles" at 18 weeks, but didn't feel any movement that I knew was the babies until 21 weeks. I have an anterior placenta as well and one of my boys was "stuck" to the uterine wall with no fluid. He is actually the one I felt "gas bubbles" from early on. Now they move all the time (especially when I'm trying to sleep!).

 

This is my third pregnancy. I started feeling butterflies at 13 weeks. DH was feeling them around 20-21 weeks.

 

I felt my first movements around 15 wks. My guys were always moving in the evening. I was trying to go to sleep one night and felt a fluttering on my side. I had never felt it before and realized that they were moving! After you feel it that first time, you notice it all the time! Just wait til they get bigger and there is no room to move! And get quite funny! Every evening, I got this HUGE bulge on the top of my belly, turns out it was one of their heads pushing up!!!

 

I felt movement once at 19 weeks, then it began regularly at 20w 6d. At 23w 5d I am now regularly feeling kicks!
