butterfly vs pops

Im 22 weeks and for the past couple of weeks ive felt an occasional popping sensation in my tummy.  Ive not had any flutters, has anyone else had a popping instead of flutters ?

Enjoy the pops.. Once they turn into punches and kicks you will miss the good ole days. I'm 33weeks convinced my little girls is training for the Olympics in my stomach :)

The fluttering to me felt more like a quick spasm in my stomach,  now I'm 30 wks and my little girl is having a party in my stomach.  Non stop movement, kicking, punching doing flips lol. What your feeling is normal you will start feeling the full on movement of your baby soon they definitely will be strong.

I have only ever experienced pops and I am 36+2. (FTM) I never really understood  when people said flutters bc I never felt that.

With both my pregnancies I describe early feelings of the baby moving as popcorn popping. Never flutters for me. I'm currently 19 weeks and can sometimes even feel the "pop" on the outside if my hand is  resting on the right spot! :)  Strong baby!

Yes! I had this around 16 weeks. My husband could feel it as well. I am 19 weeks now and felt my baby kick for the first time the other morning :)
