Ladies when am I going to start feeling something?....ANYTHING? I am 18 weeks with twins and I swear I haven't felt the slightest movement. My doc. says I'm just mistaking it for gas or something, but when I feel gas it IS gas, ya know? DH hubby says he could feel it, but even on the u/s it doesn't look to me like they're moving hardly at all? I've tried jiggling them a little, orange juice, sweets.....nothing. I'm starting to wonder what is going on here as everyone else seems to have been feeling theirs for weeks.

I did not feel anything until about 19/20 weeks. I have a friend who swears she didn't feel anything until 30 weeks, even though they seen the baby moving on the ultrasound, everyone is different. I know some ppl on here say they felt it at 12 weeks and I think sometimes everyone else thinks they're supposed to feel it early too. It will happen. Good luck.

they say that normally woman start to feel the baby or in your case babies move anywhere from 16-20 weeks....some woman feel it a little bit sooner and some woman feel it a little bit later.....so don't worry about it, your day will come!!

yah dont worry, try a cup of coffee or something with sugar in it to give babies a little energy and see if that helps. a little isnt going to hurt anything. if this is your fist is common to be later before you feel anything, i was just over 20 weeks with my first before i felt anything.
