Maybe bubbles I guess. Or twitches. Aaah! It's all the same to me! </p> <p>Feels pretty similar to the gas bubbles I was feeling and always wondering if it was baby until it always resulted in a little poot. Haha! TMI? But then one day I felt it in a slightly different spot, and no poots, and I quickly realized it must be baby, and now I can tell the difference just by the feel, but it's still hard to put into words. But it literally just happened one day! No advance warning, so it could be any time for you! Felt my first ones at 15w5d </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-your-early-fetal-movement-feel-like#post-2095534 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 19:27:32 +0000 ineebee 2095534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Little thumps like when a vein near your eye goes crazy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-your-early-fetal-movement-feel-like#post-2095399 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 18:08:38 +0000 Mrs.Pinecone316 2095399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I felt a bubbling feeling.
