Fetal Movement

Six weeks of what? Pregnancy? Well if this is the question i can answer... Everybodys body is different.. but when i was six weeks i had barely found out i was pregnant main reason sense of smell is real sensitive and food i liked before made me sick....

Most likely nothing since at 18 weeks the baby could be moving but not enough for the mother to feel it or the baby could be asleep. If you don't feel the baby moving then do this....drink a full glass of cold water and lay quietly on your left side for 30 minutes this will usually wake up the baby if shes sleeping and will move more. If you don't feel the baby moving after this then call your OB doctor for a check up.

Yes, it's definitely possible, no matter what anyone says. My midwife felt my little girl kick at 10 weeks, because she knew where to push down and what not. She's a strong little baby at 20 weeks right now but my boyfriend still hasn't felt it, but it can take a little time for a casual outsider to feel it.

Don't doubt yourself, if you think it's your baby, it probably is. :)

I am 18 weeks pregnant and feel my baby on again off again. Mine feels like popcorn popping inside or like something flicking the inside of your lower abdomen right below you belly button. But it feels different to every woman. Some say it feels like when your on a roller coaster and it does that belly flop thing. Or like a butterfly flapping its wings flying inside of you. Whatever it feels like to you, you will start to know more and more as you feel it more and more...good luck!

Feeling your baby move for the first time when you are pregnant is very exciting. Your baby started moving around around 7 weeks, but you won't be able to feel him until 16 - 22 weeks. If you have already had a baby, you might be able to feel it a little earlier because you know what the movement feels like. Mothers have described the movements as butterflies or even popcorn popping in your stomach. Once you feel the movement more frequently you will be able to tell without a doubt that it's the baby moving and not gas or hunger pains. The movements start out fairly weak, but late in your pregnancy they will get much stronger!

The doctors will say no but a mom such as myself will say yes. There can be so much that you cannot sleep a wink. But the second the baby rests you go into a panic thinking something is wrong. Now if out of the blue there is a painful, spastic jerking, you may want to go to the doctor or call for reassurance. I have heard this is what it feels like from a lady whose baby passed her meconium in utero and passed away.

Yes! You probably won't feel your baby kick until around week 16 and 22, even though the baby has been moving since week 7 or 8. You may have already witnessed these movements during an ultrasound. This is often known as a fluttering feeling or a grasshopper walking across your belly during the first movements.

At first, you will not notice many kicks, and this is okay. One day you may notice the baby is quite active and feel no movement at all the next day. It is nothing to worry about until you have movement on a regular basis and should keep track. If you notice a lack of movement, you should contact your doctor soon (don't panic this doesn't mean you are having a miscarriage, just room for concern and you doctor may want to induce you early to protect the health of you and your baby).

Yes, but it isn't the baby you feel. A baby doesn't move this early.

a baby will be either a boy or a girl long before it becomes a fetus. A woman's egg carries an X chromosome (women are XX). However, since men are XY, a single sperm cell will carry either an X or Y chromosome. Depending on which sperm cell enters into the egg will result in either the a boy baby or a girl baby.

No. At five weeks your baby has just developed a heart beat. 4 months is about the earliest you will probably feel in fetal movement. Here is what your baby looks like at five weeks:

Your baby can indeed feel and react to you touching your belly. The sense of touch begins to develop in babies during the first trimester; however, since the fetus is so small at this point, he or she may not be in contact with the side of your womb enough to register the pressure of your hand. As the baby grows and takes up more space, therefore having greater contact with the sides of the womb, he or she will be able to feel your touch much more consistently.

If you tap your belly when your baby is active in the womb, you'll often get a response from the baby to the touch. You can try responding in kind to the baby - when he or she kicks, tap in the same place - or initiating your own pattern of tapping in different places on your belly.

With the first baby, the movements are usually feltbetween the 18th and 20th week of pregnancy (although the baby actually begins to move from as early as the 9th week). In subsequent pregnancies, movements are usually felt between the 16th and 18th week.

The doctors and internet reports state that you are supposed to feel the baby move, kick, turn or flutter at least 10 times every hour. Don't be alarmed if you don't think they move that often, a lot of times you are moving around and the movement of the baby goes unnoticed. I am now 31 weeks prego and freak out sometimes because i try and count kicks all day long. If you are ever in doubt drink some juice, lay still on your left side and in no time you should feel your baby move. if you do not within 2 hrs contact your doctor for more advise.

oh yes you definitely can. at this point the babys movement should become more tense

At around 16weeks -first pregnancy - i got the feeling i could feel a heartbeat in my stomach, this is more likely to have been baby moving then there heartbeat. Now at 20weeks im getting stronger prods which feel like in going down a dip when driving or in a elevator. It sometimes feels like hes boxing my organs, but lightly still. I cant see from the outside yet i have only gained 7lbs so far and was a slim build before.

Some babies are more active than others. If your baby is moving within the "standard", then I wouldn't worry or try to make her move any more. Sometimes you won't feel her moving when you are busy doing things even if she is, so if you want to feel her move for your peace of mind, then eat a light snack such as a piece of fruit or milk, then lay on your left side and rest until you feel her moving. If you do this within several hours and still don't feel her move, contact your doctor. He/She may want to perform a non-stress test to put your mind at ease. Take care. You can gently press on your tummy in different spots to make the baby move. It isn't something that needs to be done, but it won't hurt the baby. If it hurts you, then it's too hard. And sometimes just relaxing with your feet up will make the baby move around. if you put headphones on your belly with some classical music, (which helps with brain development) or any other kind of music, it helps...

I am 28 weeks pregnant and my ob tech as well as the sonographer, both say this is impossiable because at four weeks your baby has not developed enough weight to be felt. Most women are just becoming aware of there pregnancy at this point.

Spotting in the second trimester needs to be evaluated by your doctor or clinic. The fact that you feel fetal movement is good. Call your doctor!.

Yes it is very common. I am currently 28 wks 2 days and I have been feeling my lil man's hands way down there for over a month. Sometimes it feels as though they will stick their tiny fingers right outside of you they are so low. It is all ok.

Many women experience "morning sickness" during the first trimester of their pregnancy and other women don't. However, women sometimes don't experience morning sickness until they are 6 weeks pregnant. If you do experience morning sickness you should have some relief by 14 weeks. Some women have a greater chance of having morning sickness - migraine sufferers, history of motion sickness, pregnant with multiples and if your family members experienced morning sickness. Consider yourself lucky if you are feeling well and don't worry about it!

You won't be able to feel the baby move until 16 - 22 weeks even though the baby starts to move around week 7. You will be able to see the baby move when you get an ultrasound. The baby's movement feels like butterflies in your stomach and will get stronger as your pregnancy progresses.

No, you cannot feel any movement at seven weeks. Your uterus hasn't even reached above your pelvic bone. Depending on your build, you can feel movement at 16 weeks. If you have been pregnant before, you can feel it as early as 12 weeks. What you are experiencing is probably gas or your BM moving in your intestines, or just bloated.
