ok so i thought i will confirm the myth that you cannot feel baby in early pregnancy.....i have had 5 pregnancies so far and i have had this incling that this baby is a strong one.....or there are 2...well i have had two US so far only 1 baby which it probably is......i had a doppler an tried to use it form weeks 7 by which i thought there is something like little flutters that was feeling...esp when i pressed that little bit more harder it was almost like e reflex reaction to it...it should be noted that .prior to this pregnancy i have stopped working out so i know my core stomach muscles were mush byt the time i got pg with this one...
i know what early flutters feel like....i made it a point to make a mental memory of it in the past....and i know for a fact now that what i felt starting near the end of week 6 to 7 were flutters......now this is not to SAY OR CLAIM...the baby itself was moving by kicking its limb buds around ....lol...but i think it was swishing around strong enough in my uterus which was moving around as a result. these flutters have now become more consistant and like in week 6-7 thse concentrate from the centre of my belly towards the left (this is where i felt implantation twinges quite stronly) and now that i am 9 weeks and baby measuring a bit bigger that that.....i am convinced this is no gas or my bowels but the baby. it is a distictive feeling.....
my point is maybe it is because i am older my muscles aren't the strongest anymore, because i have had 4 kids already and i know what flutters feel like....there is no reason why one shuold not trust their insctincts and know what they are feeling are flutters...looking back at my dd journal i had felt her flutters around week 11. all my other pregnancise i felt flutters after 12 weeks....
but flutters it is and i think the more kids you have the early you feel them and i think dependign on baby as well at 6w6d it measured bang on time...at 8w4d it measure 9w2d...so it looks like a strong and maybeb ig baby too....:)...but i am enjoying knowing it is moving already...(just hope it is not a hyper one....LOL
