Movement question

I have been feeling our little one moving around for about a month now.  When can I expect to feel movement from the outside.  My hubby is oging nuts b/c I can feel her  & he can't.

My DH just started feeling our LO kick from the outside. The first time he felt it he teared up and now he cant keep his hands off my belly lol.

How far along are you?

I think it's different for everyone. I felt her last night on the outside noting super strong but definitely there. DH didnt feel because he was already snoozing though. He cant wait until he gets to!

Oh nm i see your ticker. Your DH should feel him soon but it also depends on where your placenta is. Front means it may be harder for your DH to feel it, Back means he should feel it soon!

good luck!

I'm 21 weeks as of yesterday, and DH felt a kick last night. I was surprised because I'm not thin and thought my extra padding would make it hard to feel outside movement for awhile, but LO kicked HARD last night, and DH got lucky!

DH felt baby from the outside at 18 weeks.  I am able to see kicks from the outside for the last couple weeks as well.  He doesn't feel every kick I feel, but he feels the majority of them when his hand is on there.  Not sure if its weird for us to already be feeling them from the outside at this point.  LO must have some big kicks going on in there since we see them daily!

I am small and all baby, and the other night was the first time I really felt it kick from the outside. Not all the time, though. FI was able to feel it, but since then I haven't been able to again. I'll be 20w this Thursday.

My dh felt it from the outside at about 21 weeks. I have to catch the baby at a very active time and lie flat on my back and dh has to press firmly to feel it, but now he's able to more regularly. :) 

My kids even got to feel it the other night and they thought it was the craziest thing!

I have nothing to contribute to the discussion but your Elf picture cracks me up!  I have been seeing all the Elf pics on Facebook each day and kind of making fun of them (but a couple years from now I will probably be doing the same thing).
