Movements with second (and 3rd, 4th, 5th etc babies!)

Hi ladies, just curious, when did you feel movements with your second + babies compared to the first?

With my first baby I started feeling him move at 18 weeks. I am now 14 weeks into this one, and really hoping they come sooner!

    I know it might sound mad but when I lie on my side I can feel movement like bubbles or flutterings - with my LO 1 I felt them at 17 weeks. My oh thinks its wind lol !

    I'm on baby 3 and felt a movement at my 12 week scan. The sonographer was pressing really hard and the baby did a big head but!

    I've felt a few movements over the last week (13) but nothng consistent and hubby even managed to feel one, again in response to a pretty firm prod.



    With baby 1 I felt her at 15 weeks but didn't tell anyone except hubby as I didn't think they'd believe me.

    G/C but don't forget it will depend on where you placenta lies.

    DD1 I had placenta at my belly & didn't feel anything until 18-19wks & had no strong kicks felt until 24wks.

    DD2 my placenta was at my back, flutters were felt 12-13wks & by 15-16wks I had defined kicks & punches being thrown.

    Hi Emma - was wondering where my DIS11 buddy had got to! All ok with you? I was 14 weeks yesterday so we're close with these babies too!



    After posting this thread yesterday i'm sure I felt movements last night, but don't know if it's just wishful thinking!

    I didn't feel anything with my first until about 20 weeks, I had an anterior placenta, hubby never felt her move at all during the entire pregnancy.  With this one I have been feeling movement since about 14 weeks, the kicks are starting to get stronger, I am 17 + 5 hubby felt the movement yesterday, it made his day!
