I'm now 14 weeks pregnant... from what I've read if i haven't begun to feel baby yet I should be soon, but just about everytime I tell people how far a long I am they automatically ask me if I started feeling baby and I haven't. I know everyone is different but I'm starting to get a little nervous. I know what to look for and I realy don't think I've felt anything yet. Sometimes i think I feel something but I don't know if its for real or if its only because I realy want to feel something.

When did you start feeling your baby for the first time?

" I have never heard of feeling the baby move that early. I would say you should feel it in the next few weeks. With subsequent pregnancies I have heard of people who felt it at 15 weeks, but for 1st pregnancies, I've always heard more like 17-20. Good luck! "

" I felt the baby move at 16 weeks, but that's on the earlier side for first time moms. Some don't feeel the baby until well into the 20 weeks stretch. Don't worry! "

" 14 weeks is really early to feel the baby, especially if this is your first. With my first pregnancy, I was close to 6 months before I started feeling the baby consistently. "

" With my first it was 21 weeks for sure. Before then I thought maybe but it wasn't constant. This one I'm only at 9 weeks so there isn't anything. Don't be worried. You have a while. 14 weeks, people really ask if you feel it?? Maybe they are crazy. :D "
