the outside, i am just over 23wks and while i can feel baby kicking, i cant feel him kicking from the outside, i would have thought this being my second pregnancy i would have felt and or seen him moving by now.

I hardly ever felt Jayden from the outside and never saw my belly move but my placenta was at the front so I think thats why? ------------- http://lilypie.com">    [/url]

I didn't start to feel Erin moving on the outside until I was about 26 weeks, and then it was quite faint (had to stay really still).  ------------- Mama to two earth walkers & two angels.

I could see and feel it on the outside from about 18 weeks, but I have a posterior placenta - so the bubba is right there... ------------- http://alterna-tickers.com">

I felt our bubbba move from about 18 weeks I think but that was just flutters really. The proper kicking about 22 weeks I think? And now I see my tummy move and hard boots etc lol. But my placenta is at the back I think so it's no wonder I feel her. Like the others said Kaz, your's is probably at the front or maybe your little guy just likes kicking Mummy at the back lol. Typical bloke doing things behind our backs lol  -------------   http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

21 weeks for me although DH did feel a boot at around 17-18wks (can't really remember) but I think that was just a fluke nowadays my cheeky son stops moving the minute his daddy puts his hand on my belly .-------------

I first felt him kick at 17 weeks & could feel him kicking from the outside at 19 weeks. DP didn't get to feel it till about 21 weeks though as the little monkey would stop kicking as soon as daddy put his hand on my bump. lol. -------------

hey kaz, I felt Caden wiggling and kicking very early on as my placenta was at the back, and I saw him kick at something like....16 weeks! Strong boy! lol
This time I know the placenta is at the front so its cushioned, I can feel the baby wiggling but I doubt I will see anything for a while yet. ------------- |

Can't recall with Elle but we saw and felt this one from the outside at 16.5 weeks! We were very shocked! DH and Gabrielle have both seen and felt her a few times a week since then, I feel her from the outside multiple times a day. She must be very strong! I've also never carried any weight around my middle (it all goes on my thighs!) so the midwife thinks that is why we felt it so early. ------------- Mummy to Gabrielle and Ashley |

I felt baby from inside at about 17wks and DH felt at about 20wks, now he can feel quite a bit of activity in the beginning it was just little flutters like a muscle twitch. I find lying half on my side/half on my back (so kinda rolling over) then he/she is really strong. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

:) I started feeling mine moving at 19 weeks and very regularly since then..started seeing movement from the outside around 21-22 weeks - now 26 weeks...this is my first and the placenta is at the front which is supposed to make it harder to feel! lol at the moment I have kicking to the right under my ribs..... luckily baby sleeps at night when I do so I only have to deal with it throughout the day...
