First time feeling baby?

I really am not knowing what to expect so it could be gas but I’ve just felt roughly four (what felt like someone lightly flicking me from inside my stomach) taps in the same area of my lower belly. I’m 17 weeks pregnant am I supposed to measure movement now or because I’m so early do i just leave it? I do have an anterior placenta aswell.

@Jana thank you! I was hoping that would be the case 🙏🏼 yes, I can’t even say for certain that’s what it was as I’ve never felt something like that before!

Hiya! With my first baby, I started feeling internal movements at around 17 weeks and the only way I could describe them was like internal trumps! 🤣 Don’t worry about tracking movement yet, it will likely be very sporadic until about 24 weeks!

@Bec thank you!!

It is the baby moving! I felt it around 16 weeks. I thought it was cramps and it was a bit painful, but after taking Tylenol and I still felt the movements I figured it was the baby. You dont need to count now! Just enjoy it ♥️

@Rebecca aww thank you! 🤍
