When did you first feel your baby move? If you have more than one, did you feel the second sooner than the first? I'm 10w today with #2 and I swear I've felt movement, but that seems impossible this early. Am I crazy?

17w with my first, 15w with my second. But I didn't feel regular movement until closer to 20 with both.

16 weeks with number 1 I think??
And around week 9 or 10 with number 2. I asked my doctor and she said that isn't unheard of with your second. I'm also "aware"of my body and fairly thin.
ETA: you could see movement from outside around 12 weeks with #2.

I voted for my second baby, I dont fully remember with my first but it was prob 16-18 weeks. With this one, I felt movement around 12 weeks, confirmed when I had my NT scan and saw baby move when I felt something. But it has been very sporadic even still now at 17 weeks.

I feel like it was super early, like 11 weeks? I was at an OB appointment (I think right at 11 wks) and she asked if I felt fluttering yet, because that would be the baby moving. Sure enough, I had been feeling lots of that at night the week before! It was my first pregnancy.

19 weeks with #1, 17weeks with #1 (I had an anterior placenta for #2, which I'm sure contributed).

I felt the popcorn/fluttering sensations while lying still in bed around 18w with my first. I'm also curious if I'll feel #2 move sooner!

I voted 17-19 weeks but it was somewhere in the 16-17 week range. I remember my OB asking me at my 16 week appointment if I was feeling movement and I thought I was but wasn't 100% sure yet.

I definitely felt my second around ten weeks. It was like bubbles and only after cold water and sitting perfectly still. I thought I was crazy at first but it was definitely the little one.

It took forever with my first, like 20+5, with my second it was 14 weeks

About 24 weeks with my first, 19 with my second. I had an anterior placenta both times.

It was soon after the second tti started. Just one baby.

DH could feel her on the outside at 14 weeks. So a few weeks earlier than that.

Wow, that's incredible! I felt #1 at around 17 weeks, and now with #2 at 10w I'm definitely feeling something, but considering my symptoms lately, it's probably just gas! Can't wait to feel this little one.

I noticed around the same time as you with both. With my first I was so uncertain that could possibly be what I was feeling until I saw the correlation between movement and sensation on a very early ultrasound I have had tons of abdominal health issues and surgeries throughout my life so sometimes I think I am just so highly tuned to that part of my body there was no way I couldn't notice!
