    i was alil over weight too, and i started feeling him kick when i was about 16/17 weeks? by the time i hit 21/22 weeks, it was nonstop, and by the time i was close to my due date, as bad as it sounds, i couldnt stand the kicking anymore! lol. i know EVERYONE and their baby is different though. so don't stress about it. i know alot of people say they dont recommend that bebe sounds monitor, but if you get one of those, you will be CERTAIN if its a kick or not...its only $20 at walmart. use it for a few weeks, and return it! cause there wont be any use for it once theyre REALLY kicking....

    Most females describe the feeling as being like popcorn popping, a goldfish swimming round, butterflies fluttering, a tapping sensation, and bubbles. Alot of females chalk up those first smooth pursuits of their stomach to gasoline or starvation pangs, however if you begin feeling them extra traditionally, you'll be able to appreciate the change. You're much more likely to believe those early pursuits whilst you are sitting or mendacity quietly. Most females begin to believe the youngster transfer a few in which among the sixteen-22 week, although the youngster began relocating round alot among weeks 7-eight. Women who're skinny or who recognize their our bodies good, might start to believe motion previous. The motion wont be felt from the external until in the direction of 22-24 weeks. Sounds such as you felt your youngster transfer congrats!

    Each person is different. I felt my baby kick for the first time around 15 weeks. However, my best friend didn't even feel any movement until she was around 28 weeks. It differs for everyone. As long as a heartbeat was heard, everything is probably fine.

    if you're a lil bit overweight it'll be a lil while til you can actually feel the baby move. Thin/small people feel the baby move earlier. It's not weird that you talk to your tummy..I do the same exact thing. Heehehe! FIrst baby movements should feel like butterflies in your stomach/lil twitching here and there/Goldfish swimming around/POPCORN popping.

    Sweety honestly each person is different. And if your over weight you may not feel the baby until further along in your pregnancy. I felt my first child at about 21 weeks my second child I didnt feel until closer to 26
