One of the most magical milestones of pregnancy is feeling your baby move! But when does this incredible experience usually begin?
Generally, first-time mothers typically start feeling fetal movement, often described as flutters or bubbles, between 16 and 25 weeks. If you've been pregnant before, you might recognize those sensations sooner, perhaps as early as 13 weeks! This is because you're more familiar with what to look for.
Don't worry if you don't feel anything yet! Many factors can influence when you feel those first movements, including your body type and the baby's position. If you're past 25 weeks and haven't felt anything, it's always a good idea to consult with your doctor or midwife. They can check on your baby's well-being and put your mind at ease. Get ready to feel those tiny tumbles – it's a journey you'll never forget!
