Usually some women dont feel movement until they're 18-20 weeks along. (: but its always different with some pregnancies. I didnt feel movement until I was 17 weeks, it was crazy. Felt like butterflies.

If this is your first baby you might not feel the movement just yet . It all depends in your body if you are thin or have meat on your bones lol:) if you are super thin you might feel the baby at this 15wks+

I know someone who didn't feel their baby move until they were 24 weeks along. It all depends on your baby position, and sometimes they hide and they still have lots of room to move.

Yeah I feel as though you'll just know, I did! To be honest I thought similar at first that it was gas but when it kept happening I knew it had to be baby moving around. That was around 19/20 wks I'm 26 wks now and she kicks so hard my belly moves :)
