When will I feel my baby move?

How many weeks wore you when you first felt your baby move?

I had thought I first felt movement around week 16 but being a ftm I wasn't positive it was him.  Once we had our 20wk ultrasound it was much more obvious to detect that what I had been feeling was actually him moving and not just my imagination.   My little guy always has hiccups so the constant tap tap tap I felt was that (I was sure I was just somehow feeling my pulse or something.  Lol)

I'm 17 weeks and still haven't. Ftm. They say by now you can feel flutters, but I haven't. I am just waiting until I obviously feel something. I'm not worrying about it. I am excited for when it comes though!

I'm a ftm and I first felt my daughter at around 17-18 weeks. I'm now 23 weeks and she moves all the time :)
Everyone is different though, it could be a few weeks earlier or a few later than what I stated Above.
