I am 21 weeks and if I didnt get a sono saying that theres only 1 in there I would think there were 3..lol..Very active, sometimes to the point I cant stand straight....Im thinking hes going to be a soccer player...My son cant wait to see his little brother. When we first found out, the first thing he asked for was a bunk bed....smh

I am almost 23 weeks with a baby girl. I started to feel her fluttering around 17 weeks. Her movements seem to be much softer then my son's were and I have only had a few strong kicks. I think she may be towards the back and that is why I don't feel her as much. I have actually lost 5 pounds so far and am thinking that I should hopefully start gaining some weight now that I am actually able to somewhat eat again. It is surprising me just how different this pregnancy is from my last, they seem like night and day.

I'm due at the very beginning of December, and as of my last appointment a few weeks ago I have only gained about 8 pounds. Pre-pregnancy I'm not THAT overweight, but I did have a bit of extra to work with before hand :). This is our second child, and one thing I noticed with both is that I didn't feel movements for quite some time. Our daughter seemed to sit higher in my waist area and I started feeling pokes, prods, and kicks a little after 20 weeks. With this baby, a boy, I'm at 24 weeks so far and only feel flutters a few time throughout the day and when I go lay in bed for the evening. The flutters are below my belly button. I'm not too worried about it. The ultrasounds have been great and the heart beat is strong! Good luck, and you will feel him/her moving around in no time!

I am 20 weeks and have been feeling movement for a couple of weeks. It seems to be just at certain times, I guess when she's really active. Still sometimes I am not sure if she is moving or if I am just gassy! I am looking forward to the strong kicks!!

Gosh, I've gained at least 15 lbs already! I am gaining a little faster than I did with my son but it is leveling off and so I am not worried. Overall I gained about 28lbs last time. I really did not notice it, either. I think it was just a little extra all over and it came off FAST. A few weeks after birth, I was down to lower than I was before being pregnant so I am encouraged by that! Hope it happens again.

Congrats to everyone!! Im 19 weeks along, and have felt a few movements/flutters for a few weeks now.. Sometimes I think if I rub the top of my tummy I can feel the baby move.. :)

So far I havnt gained any weight.. (with my daughter I gained 14 lbs.. and she was 7lbs.3oz.)

Im not sure as of right now if we are going to find out if the baby is a boy or girl.. I am leaving it up to my husband.. :)

I'm just feeling flutters at the moment but that's normal. And oh my god, my patience is at an all time low. I'm usually a very patient person but i have not at the moment. Very hard to control when i have a 3 year old but you just have to. I'm finding out next week if it's and boy/girl. I can't wait

I haven't felt much of this baby moving. I have an anterior placenta and that can be a reason for not fling movements. Although every pregnancy is different and fluttering at this stage is normal.
