Flutter feeling-normal feeling?

I havent been to the doctors yet but two pg tests say positive. Doctors appt is on the 20th of september. With my own calculations I am about 5 or 6 weeks pregnant. I have felt fluttering almost like the saying "butterflys in the stomach" twice. Is this normal? Anyone else have this happen to them?

    Yeah, it's completely normal, but I'd say it's a bit early to feel the baby actually moving at this point. The baby doesn't have formed and functional extremities (like legs and arms) yet. That is if you're 6 weeks along.

    If you're even 9-12 weeks along, then I'd say it's more likely the baby you're feeling.

    Best to go ahead to the doctor on the 20th and see exactly how far along you are.

    Flutters are actually a good thing.....

    Congrats!!! And, good luck!

    you wouldnt feel the baby moving that early, its only about an inch, if u feel anything in your stomach its most likely gas

  • you did say you had a positive, thats your body adjusting and stretching to make room for the baby!!

    congrats!!
