Hi all, I have put this in a previous thread, but then thought maybe I should have started a new one?!? I don't know all the rules around this stuff yet, so have put my question here as well - sorry!

I have posted a couple of times, but thought I'd drop in and ask a question.

I am due about 22nd September so 22wks and a bit!

I have not felt any movements or these so-called butterflies or anything yet, and although my OB is not at all concerned (everyones different I guess) I am just wondering if there is anyone else that hasn't felt movements till late in this or previous pregnancies?

hi cmac - have just replied in the pregnancy thread....

I didn't feel my first baby move until 24 weeks - although then I realised that I had been feeling him for a few weeks, I just thought it was gas.

I felt the next three babies much earlier because I knew what I was looking/feeling for.

I wasn't sure if it was Noah moving for a long time and only when it was the full on kicks and punches was I confident it was him. I think next time I'll be a lot more aware. It was around the 23-23 week mark that the movement became really pronounced

thanks to those who replied. I believe I have finally felt the 'flutters'!

First time at yoga the other night, and since then I feel like little air bubbles are blown in my tummy!
