    So when did you girls really start to feel them move all the time with strong kicks? I feel my babies move, however, it is not all the time that I feel them and I have not had a painful kick like I have heard some people talk about. I am 25 weeks pregnant with twin boys.

    I started to really feel them move around 20-21 weeks, but it also my 2nd pregnancy. Do you know if either of the placentas are in front? If so that would impact how much you feel.

    I am just over 34 weeks, and I don't feel mine move all of the time, it just depends. They have their active and inactive times. Sometimes, they are really active at night and other times, it is in the morning.

    I have not had any painful kicks, but a few have been very strange! It feels like your whole belly is moving!

    You will start to feel them more and more as time passes. I always thought that as they got bigger, I would feel less movement because there would be less room, but I haven't found that to be true at all!

    Hang in there and you will start to get kicked and punched and all sorts of things! The "big" movements are right aroung the corner!

    I'm 27wks tomorrow and have both anterior placentas so I don't feel much. :( I cherish it when I do! But they seem to be quieter during the day since I'm up and around and when I relax in the lazy boy in the evenings little guy is more active. Little girl I can't feel as much I think due to her positioning and the anterior placenta.

    Some of the kicks are finally getting stronger but not painful. Definitely weird sensations when they kick my cervix, etc! And it feels really weird when he rolls in there!

    Give it more time. At 25wks I wasn't feeling much either and it has increased now though!

    I hardly ever feel my girls. It freaks me out and I expect at every u/s to go in there and them suddenly be gone (yeah, I know I'm irrational :rolleyes: ). But when I do get a little movement, it's very encouraging. I know I'm still at that point where it starts kicking in, but a little "hi mom" every now and then would be so reassuring.

    I feel ya! :cool:

    About 20-22 weeks.

    But...I never really had the strong kicks and constant movement that I did with my singletons. My two were transverse and facing each other for most of the pregnancy so the movement was very different. Remember, when it's a singleton, you feel all their movement but with twins their position effects this greatly. They often are kicking each other so you will not feel much if anything when they are doing this.

    Hi! CONGRATS!!!

    I'm 28wks today and have felt them move sporadically for awhile (since i think about 24wks) Last week they were like little mad men...this week more mellow.

    Like other PP have said, mine is when I'm relaxing usually at night, or after I've eaten...haha

    I also haven't felt any painful kicks...annoying when my cervix gets hit, but that's about it!

    Hang in there, it's a coming! haha

    I first felt them around 18 weeks or so, and it got more consistent between 20-22 weeks. By 24 weeks they were rockin all over the place!

    I have been feeling my girls for awhile. But, this isnt my first pregnancy and I knew the feeling I was looking for. Now they NEVER stop! These girls are strong too! Some women feel tons of movement, some do not. Everyone is different. CONGRATS and Good luck!

    I felt my first kicks around 14 weeks but they picked up around 18 weeks.

    Now I swear they never stop. I like them because I know that it means that they're alright but sometimes it can get pretty annoying. I can get some painful ones esp when they punch me in my already stretched out belly button. Ouch! The cervix is pretty wierd. These boys are both so freaking strong though, like earlier tonight I swear one pushed his foot at least an inch and a half out of my belly.
    Its like I have an insomniac octopus inside of me.

    Enjoy the flutters and gentle kicks while you can!! Gizelle started KICKING about a week ago, and its so strong it shocks me! She nudges me quite abit too, though I can't tell if that's her elbows or legs. Nathan's a quieter one (even gynae says so when she's doing the u/s) and he still gives me flutters to tell me he's a-ok. But I read from a book that if you're a mummy with a bigger build, you might not feel them as much cos there's more space for them to move ard. I'm very petite, only 5" <_< , so mayb that's why. :D

    I've had some strong kicks, but I haven't had any painful ones. Sometimes I only feel one of them move. Some days they are active, some days they are not. My husband tells me they move a lot at night while I am sleeping. If he wakes up during the night, he'll put his hand on my belly to feel them.
