Can children sense pregnancy??

My two-year-old niece has been continuously feeling my stomach and repeating "two babies". 😳

It's too early to test but multiple people that I've never met have asked how far I am into pregnancy.

I immediately went to think I just looked fat but everyone's saying it's just the vibe I give off lately.

Yes, a lot of times children and animals can sense it before we do. You mosy likely are pregnant 😊 The really cool thing would be if she was correct about the 2 babies in there.

I asked her where the babies were to like kinda get a feel if she was just thinking two but she pointed out a baby on each side and even said they were girls. And my one year old nephew just smiles everytime he feels my belly.

Yessss. That would be so awesome If you had twin girls 😍😍 I mean, if that's what you want. I would be excited for you, lol.

I keep asking her questions about it but no matter what her number, gender never changes and it's been awhile.

I'm 18 weeks pregnant and my 16 month old boy keeps putting his head on my belly and touching my bump so I think he senses that I'm pregnant πŸ₯°

same. I also noticed that with the first born, a lot of times when the mom is pregnant the child will be more emotional. I noticed a little girl I had in my 3 year old class would cry easily and I kept wondering what was happening over the course of a few weeks and I remember thinking, "is her mom pregnant?" And sure enough the next week the mom told me she was pregnant πŸ˜†

Before we told my nephew about the baby probably about a day after I found out he told me β€œI would like a baby to play baseball with.” β€œThere is a baby sleeping upstairs in my room” he is 5.5 years old. When I told him there is a baby in my tummy he was so excited and always asks to look at pictures

if we both get a positive pregnancy test, I would love to have someone to talk to during the pregnancy and share our journey since our cycles seem to be really close together. If thats something you'd be interested in? If not, totally ok. 😊 I don't have anyone else who is currently pregnant in my life & thought it would be awesome to have the support. Lol.

awesome! When do you plan to take a test? I know you said your period is supposed to start Oct 17th, mine is Oct 18th. I was supposed to ovulate yesterday according to my app but I didn't have the normal signs of ovulating. I did have a tinnnyyy bit of cramping in my left ovary last night & a little cramping on my right ovary this morning πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ I ordered some pregnancy test strips so I don't have to waste the actual pregnancy tests.

Right, I was going to test on the 12.

i think the 12th might be a it too early for me given my ovulation dateπŸ˜£πŸ˜• I was planning on testing the 15th/16th

My baby girl has a infatuation with my stomach suddenly also, she doesn't know about babies or pregnancy she just keeps pointing at it and saying belly..

I believe they can, my little 1 year old sis in law pointed to my belly and shouted baby, and I was covered up. My little cousin who is also 1 kept touching my breast

that will explain why she is soooo clingy then πŸ˜‚

On my first pregnancy my partners neice said to me "You got a baby in there!" I was confused as I didn't know I was pregnant at the time! And once I knew she came said to me the same thing again! Amazing!

My older son sensed I was pregnant way before I knew. He kept saying there's a baby in there and touching my belly sure enough a few weeks later I checked and I was !

you can test early if you think ur having twins your HCG levels are soo much higher hormone detectable in pregnant women's blood or urine about 10 days post-conception. It usually doubles every two to three days I tested on day 8 post conception and got the quickest 2 lines ive ever seen ive got twins boys now 8 months x
