When did you feel the baby kick?

I am almost 19 weeks along and feel little flutters.  I was wondering when everyone actually started to feel kicks??? When could others feel your little one kick??

 Thanks in advance for your help!

I started to feel kicks and flutters around 19-20 weeks. I was told I have an anterior placenta so it may take awhile. But at around 24-25 weeks is when I started feeling them daily and multiple times throughout the day.

I feel some pops here and there. I don't know if they're actual kicks. They could be elbows, knees or hands, but I definitely feel something. I never actually felt "flutters." It is more of a rippling rolling feeling with pops that started at 18.5 weeks.

I'm almost 24 weeks and I'm been feeling movements since about 17 weeks, and kicks since about 19 weeks. My baby does measure a big large for GA though so I think I felt kicks a little earlier than average. Everyone is different though. I think the average person feels kicks anywhere from 16 to 25 weeks.

I was 19 weeks with my first when I realized what the feeling was. 16 weeks with my second and 15 weeks with this one. I can't remember when I felt outside kicks, I have not yet. I can't wait for that point.

I felt flutters around 18weeks, but definite kicks and movements about 2-3 weeks later.  I also have an anterior placenta so you may feel kicks earlier if you don't have one.

With DS, I didn't feel anything until I think 25 weeks. This time I was more like 15.

17 weeks for me!

I felt a flutter or two before that, but nothing felt like a kick. Then all the sudden, when I was 17 weeks exactly, me and bf were watching The Heat win the NBA championship, I felt a lot of movement! I felt flutters and some kicks! (my explanation, especially now that we know it's a boy, is that he just wanted to get into the game with his daddy! - daddy gets vocal when watching basketball, lol) I have felt movement (fluttery stuff) and kicks/elbows/kness (thumping feeling) every single day, multiple times a day, ever since that night. Apparently we have an active lil monster! Recently I have been able to feel a hard spot on one side of my tummy if he's in a weird position - I can't tell what it is yet (head, butt..) but it's cool to be able to actually feel a part of him. Can't feel him kick on the outside yet, but it'll be soon!!

All Ive felt was twinges and pulls not lately tho. Our doc said that was just my muscles moving and sometimes hitting a nerve. Because the first time I felt that I was just sitting and I was like whooooa!!

I can't wait to feel our lil one move! We are currently 17 wks. 2 days so looking forward to that.

I started feeling flutters at 18-19 weeks and then kicking immediately after at 20 weeks. 

I'm a FTM, so it could have been happening earlier, I was just oblivious.

15 weeks for this one, I think it was closer to 20 with my first. I've never actually felt flutters. They feel more like bumps. But I'm feeling them daily now, especially when relaxing after eating. I wish DH could feel them right now because I'm loving it.

I first started feeling the occasional flutter around the end of 18 weeks and now I feel baby moving frequently everyday. I am 25 weeks now and the flutters are now full on kicks. :)

I felt movements at 13 weeks and then they stopped for a while. (This is my first pregnancy) Then, actual kicks started around 17 weeks and my husband was able to feel them at 19 weeks. I am 21 weeks now and baby boy is kicking up a storm all day long now! He's definitely a strong one. I can even see the movement from the outside!

I've felt flutters for a couple weeks now, and for the past few days I'm feeling actual little kicks. I was a little farther along before I could feel DS the first time, but I had an anterior placenta then, and this time I don't.

I am almost 18 weeks, and I felt flutters in the inside around 14 weeks and now my husband and famil members can feel the baby as well!!

I think it all depends on where the baby is located and also everyone is different on when they feel the baby kick.

First pregnancy here, I started feeling movement around 16-17 weeks and started seeing movement around 20 weeks. My placenta is in the back of my uterus by my spine, so I'm sure that helps to make it easier to detect.

I started to feel her seriously move moer than a flutter around 17-18 weeks.  My husband didnt feel her for the first time until I was about 23 weeks, I think she can tell the difference between my hand and his because she usually stops moving when he put his hand on my belly.

i started feeling little flutters at 16 weeks. i started to feel real movement at 20 weeks, and now i'm 24 weeks and just started to feel movement on a daily basis, although i still don't feel her that often during the day. i have an anterior placenta so it's hard for me to feel her sometimes so i blame it on that. hopefully when i get further along feeling her won't be no problem. it makes me feel so much better.
