Congrats Preeti for experiencing wonderful aspect of pregnancy. As Sweta said your hubby has to wait to feel movements as baby is still growing & kicks are not strong enough....Around 7-8month depending on size sometimes u can clearly make out babies head, arm/legs just by feelingyour tummy...9month since my baby was heads up it was so easy for me to make out shape of her head.

Also a handy tip as we progress in pregnancy there will be a point when doctor will tell u to observe baby movements as that is indication of growth & I used to get worried when sometime I used to feel there is no movement & easy way to make baby move is to have combination of cold & sweet & lie down to observe & 90% of time that worked for me to feel movements after 5-10mins of having some cold milk shake..but that is later & not to worry now.

Enjoy
Daisy

Hi Preeti,

Congrats on feeling your baby movements... You must be very thrilled.. :) Really we moms are lucky that we can feel the movements first... :) as for our hubbies, they keep their hands on our tummy but cannot feel yet as baby kicks are not that stronger for them to feel..

KR dont worry...right now.. baby has enough space to move around but after 2-3 weeks, we all might feel the strong baby movements as the baby grows.. :)

Take Care All,
Sweta

Hi Twinkle and KR,

I think it´ s too early to feel the kicks) because at this time baby´ s bones are not very strong for you to feel.I just feel flutters really down below. I feel that the baby is doing backflips. when i felt it the first time i was sure that it was the baby not Gas because gas hurts but this feeling is very different. No, my husband hasn´ t been able to feel it yet.

KR, don´ t worry. I think in a couple of weeks we will start to feel strong kicks)

Hi preeti,

Great to hear abt your baby movments! It' s the most amazing experience and exciting too! Is your hubby able to feel too? How are the movements, is it like quickening or any kicks? Do share more abt it.

I felt the movements early like you, but now I couldn' t feel that much which makes me lil worried. But as my hubby says, it might be because am used to the movments I don' t feel it extraordinary. And also he convinced me as may be because the baby has more room to move as my belly is becomming bigger, I might not feel that much as before. But still hoping and waiting to feel more clear moves or kicks! Hope this is just normal.

As of now, I guess most of us has experienced just the movements and not any kicks rite! Glad to know abt your experience and update, keep writting!

Take care,
KR

Year of school admission
Hi, my son was born in January 2008. My doubt now is his school admission. CBSE needs children to complete 3 years and 6 months for LKG. Is this confirmed? If that is so, the age is calculated as on what date? If it is by June 1st, then our kids will miss out by a few days. That is still allright as many people nowadays believe it is good to join kids in LKG as late as... - Sujani [View Message]
