Every single day someone different would ask me "Have you felt any movement yet?" </p> <p>Thanks everyone! Last night while I was laying in bed, I had my had on my belly and felt something more like the popping sensation many of you have described! If I'm still enough, I think DH may be able to feel!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-660356 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 05:19:44 +0000 illumina 660356@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ahhh can't wait for this! The August mamas are only a few weeks ahead of me :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-660005 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 21:16:58 +0000 Mrs. Confetti 660005@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine felt like soda bubbles popping in my belly. It was amazing. I miss those days :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-659999 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 21:15:05 +0000 MrsRoo 659999@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mummystar: mine felt like a goldfish, too. That was the only way I could think to describe it!<br /> @Ocean girl: yay!! My first ones were right around that time. Looking back, I had been feeling them for a few days before I could place what they were. So exciting! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-659970 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 21:07:11 +0000 sarac 659970@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine felt like little gas bubbles. I first felt them at 16 weeks but thought no, that can't be it. Then by 18 weeks I was sure, and knew that I'd been feeling it for a little while. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-659440 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 19:38:30 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 659440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Like @blackbird, mine were kind of muscle-spasmy too. Now they are more like nudges or pokes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-659418 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 19:35:41 +0000 blackbird 659418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine felt like muscle spasms </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-659292 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 19:17:18 +0000 QBbride 659292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine felt like butterflies in my tummy but much lower. Felt them around 17 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-659287 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 19:16:08 +0000 lawbee11 659287@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am finally feeling movement, too! I think the popcorn popping is more accurate than flutters. I told my DH that it feels like there is a tiny mouse in there knocking on my uterus! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-659272 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 19:13:47 +0000 Ra 659272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds like it! I thought it felt like popcorn popping or carbonation in my belly. Enjoy them. Those first flutters are so amazing :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-659257 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 19:11:47 +0000 singingbee 659257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My friend described it as a bug running on the inside of her skin. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-659253 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 19:10:45 +0000 MrsStar 659253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Could be! Mine started at 17 weeks, and felt like a goldfish swimming around. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-659248 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 19:10:17 +0000 .twist. 659248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FutureMrsMcK: yep! It's so hard to explain to others. I tried telling a girlfriend it's like someone is poking me with their knuckle... on the inside. LOL. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-659241 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 19:08:40 +0000 lovehoneybee 659241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: It's really hard to describe exactly what that feels like but that was the only way I could describe it--and bubbly, yes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-659235 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 19:07:31 +0000 .twist. 659235@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FutureMrsMcK: I never thought of it like that but I would say that's very accurate to what I felt as well! </p> <p>I also felt some really mild, almost... bubbly sensations? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-659229 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 19:06:22 +0000 Sweet T 659229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine felt like muscle spasms but obviously on the inside. It was around 16 weeks or so. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-659216 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 19:04:05 +0000 aprk 659216@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine felt like the tingles when you go on a roller coaster. Weird, I know! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-659213 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 19:03:24 +0000 Bookish 659213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine felt like something going *flop!* It was so weird! I think I was 18 weeks when I first felt something, so you're probably feeling baby! :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-first-flutters#post-659178 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 18:58:54 +0000 lovehoneybee 659178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Could be!

It feels like someone is running a feather along the inside of my belly. Is this what I think it is??? I'm 17wks, 4 days! </p>
