    With the twins, I was 19 weeks before I could tell what was happening was the babies moving. How soon can I expect to feel movement this time around? I'm so excited for that part of being pregnant! That's the best! I know it will rpobably be sooner with a 2nd pregnancy, just wasn't sure how much sooner.

    I was 15w4d. I first felt her move on my anniversary, which was a nice gift. I was so surprised to feel that obvious bump (not a "flutter, etc). I didn't feel the twins until 19w4d.

    With Jax, it was between 17 and 18 weeks. I was so surprised to have felt more movement with Jax than I did with the girls. You'd think that since there were two babies that you'd feel twice as much. It gets crowded in there pretty quickly, so I noticed more with Jax.

    I'm still really early, but I LOVE that part, too!

    I think I was about 16-17 weeks this time but didn't feel her regularly move until after 20 weeks.

    I am 17 weeks today. I have a fetal doppler and when I am using it and the baby moves around and hits where the doppler is (you can hear the thump), I can also feel the little flutter inside. If it wasn't for the timing (with the doppler) I'm not sure I would be feeling it yet.

    It was really early this go around, I felt movement at 14 weeks! No kidding! AND she has been extremely active ever since.

    At today's NST they could barely keep her on the monitors she was moving around so much, tee hee!

    This time I felt the flutters around 12 weeks and the good kicks around 19 weeks. With the twins it was flutters around 14 weeks and kicks around 20 weeks. I do seem to feel this baby more this time around. I wonder if it's because it only has me to kick when with the twins they focused on each other? :p

    I felt flutters around 15 weeks, but didn't have consistent movement until 20 weeks. I LOVE it!

    I think it's so different having just one baby this time! It was a little weird at fist not having movement all over.
    This baby is very busy, too. I had the same experience as pp at my NST- couldn't keep the baby on the monitor! I wonder if it't becasue the baby has so much more room!

    It was around 14-15 weeks for me. I thought it was gas for a week or so... I remember being so excited! I used 'baby plus' when I was preg, which is a monitor you wear to increase development in utero and always felt strong kicks while wearing it. (babyplus.com) I loved it! I swear my guys are such good sleepers b/c of this device, who knows, maybe I just got lucky.
