My DH gets so jealous when I feel the little twitches which I think are baby kicks. I can't wait for him to feel them with me.

Huh that's interesting... People are voting my week right now! I'm 22 weeks but DH hasn't really been able to feel anything... Maybe it's b/c of my anterior placenta, or maybe we need to try more!

20+ weeks. The baby movements were hit and miss before that. I could feel it, but he'd stop moving. Then I'd feel it again and call for DH, but nada. Rinse and repeat.

20 something weeks...maybe early 20's. It really freaked him out, so he didn't want to touch for ages!

He actually felt him for the first time this past weekend, around 21 weeks! I could feel him on the outside before then, but whenever I tried to make my husband feel, baby would stop or he just wasn't sure what to feel for. I guess? Ha, I don't know. But anyway, the kicks have gotten much stronger and more obvious now.

I think around 19 weeks. It took a lot of "hand lurking" on my stomach, though. My sister had anterior placenta and it wasn't until more like 24 weeks for her.

C first felt the baby around 18/19 weeks. My husband had poor timing! He first felt the baby from the outside a few weeks later, on Mother's Day!

@snowjewelz: It may be because of the placenta I was told yestersay I had an anterior as well.....the midwife talked about how it wikk cushion a lot based in where baby is....I feel baby but rarely and if I do its near my side......
I am thinking it will be awile for DH to feel too

I can't remember exactly but it was in the mid 20s. I'm overweight though so she had to kick through a bit of padding
