Congrats on u being pregnant!! IT's always an amazing feeling to have a baby in u, and feeling it movements inside of u.. haha =D PLus, when u try talking to him, or stroking him, by stroking your tummy, the baby can sense it there.. hehe And the way baby respond back to the mother, is via kicking of the tummy.. haha =D SOmetimes it can show their happiness or even resentment to things they dun like to hear.. haha =D WIsh u have a smooth deliverly and healthy baby!! hehe

like you have said, i also felt sad that i have not felt how my tummy being kicked by the baby inside because i am a dad. but to tell you, just the touch of our hands, just the feel of the life inside, makes us daddies the happiest person during pregnancy, next to moms.

Congratulations. Enjoy those little kicks while you can. Once you get closer to your due date it feels like the baby is trying to come out of your skin. I'm 9 months pregnant and can't wait to meet my bundle of joy and for my stomach to not be sore from her kicking me all the time. lol I do think its cool how you can see them move and it changes your stomach and trying to figure out, what part of the body is that big bump. I like feeling the hiccups also. I have seen some really neat videos on youtube of women who were able to video their stomaches. You should try to video it.

Oh, I loved that feeling!! I felt it early on with both my daughter and son . . . I can't remember exactly what week, but it was around the end of the first trimester anyway. It felt like a heartbeat . . . but as they grow, you really feel that kick!! Well, your baby's dad may not be able to feel it inside like you do, but make sure he gets his rub-the-tummy time in and he'll be sure to feel it!! My hubby did that for both our kids . . . it was a special bonding time for all of us. And the funny story about my daughter . . . he was rubbing the tummy one day - and even poking it . . . he put his head on my belly and she kicked him - ha ha. I guess we should have known back then that she was a little rascal - hee hee. Congrats and I'm very excited for you!!

Hee hee - yah, we keep reminding my daughter of that story! And I will tell you she has the strength of a horse in those legs of hers - that girl can kick! Yah, it's hard to tell at first if those early baby kicks are really kicks . . . doctors say it could be gas too. But I felt them regularly - so I'm pretty positive it was a kick!! Enjoy the feeling of life in your tummy!!

hahaha.. its funny how you described her as a little rascal... probably she doesnt want to be disturbed and so she has to kick her dad.. LOL i felt something moved during the last of my first trimester too but i wasnt really sure if it was my baby kicking.. when people asked me if it has been moving already, i just replied i dont know.. hehe anyway, thanks much2say!

I love that feeling when I was pregnant and I miss that feeling too. But of course I enjoy my baby more now that she's outside my tummy. It was a great feeling when baby kicks. With me, my baby was really active in my tummy during night time when I'm lying in my bed and about to sleep already. I can see my tummy was moving also, that it seems my baby was rolling inside. I'm happy for you that you're experiencing that wonderful feeling. Enjoy every moment of it.

Congratulations on your pregnancy! I'm 5 months pregnant and I can feel some fetal movements in my tummy, usually at night and while I'm sitting down. The kicks are stronger compared to last month and its fetal heartbeat is good. I feel scared and happy at the same time because this is my first baby.

Congratulations!!! I too is currently pregnant though I am nearing my due, actually it may happen at anytime now. The first time i felt my baby moved inside my tummy it really made me smile. It's like he was telling me, hey mom i am here. The emotion that i feel is really different and I am so excited to see him face to face. When you reach your 7th or 6th month you can even see that your tummy may even look uneven at times because of the movement and it becomes lopsided. Motherhood is such a miracle!!! TC

Hello, juicekodai Congratulations on you pregnancy! Yeah, it does feel nice. I am five months pregnant and I feel my baby move too. She's pretty strong. I cannot help but smile, and even laugh, sometimes, my hubby wonders what's going on. I guess the movement gets stronger until the baby is born, huh? Can hardly wait Take care, girl!

Textbook of pregnancy - this is a book on pregnancy.
It should be ten in 12 hours and lesser than that could be bad. It felt like bubbles bursting inside

my niece is really hyperactive even nowadays she always seems so alive,even though sometimes if she's sick,she is still happy and hyperactive. she seldom makes sad and she is easily hurt when someone don't talk to her the way she likes to be talked with.

When my baby first started kicking I had to lay in my side for my husband to be able to feel it. He would put his hand between my belly and the bed. The best is when you are relaxed and they are so big you tummy jumps and your baby kicks your hand! Have fun and enjoy having your baby in one place....soon you it will be running from you!

hehe.. yeah, sometimes, i just sit down, watch tv and wait for my baby to move... makes me want my baby to stay a longer inside my tummy.. haha

Am a first time mom and I am 7 months pregnant now and yes my baby is kicking me a lot, he even tickled me most of the time and like you, i really love the feeling. The first time i felt his movement during my 5th months was really an awesome feeling. Me and my hubby was really happy feeling his kicks for the first time and even up to now that he is rolling all over my tummy, we still enjoy it and love watching my tummy's wave as he rolls over. Im loving the feeling and this experience is something that money cannot buy.

I remember when I was pregant the first time and I felt the movements. It did feel very strange at first, but it is simply amazing isn't it? When I was at full term with my first baby I remember being able to see what looked like an elbow or perhaps a knee working it's way around the tight skin on my tummy, now that was an odd sensation!
