I am pregnant with my first child and did not feel any movement for a long time in the beginning, but now I think that she is practicing for a title fight. The movements are fairly constant and a little painful any suggestions for getting help sleeping during her most active time (usually when it is time for me to go to bed). If not I guess it is just good practice for the future.

My baby usually kicks all day long. My boyfriend was in the hopital the other day and the baby must have known where we were cause all he did was kick me in my ribs!

This is my first pregnancy and I started feeling like tightness and small little kicks at 13 weeks( I hoping for a boy and most people say boys are active sooner, so crossing fingers) I'm now 18weeks and it has gotten much stronger,but it really tickles when the baby moves hard. All I can do is giggle. I really want to see my baby,but at the same time I want to feel this little loves tickles forever. This is the best time of our lives, enjoy it!

I am currently pregnant with my third baby. I am four months along and I feel these little feelings like someone is rubbing their knuckle inside my belly. Or sometimes it is a rolling feeling like someone is rolling over and over inside my tummy. My husband says it is our last pregnancy and that he will stand over the dr. while she ties my tubes to make sure she does it right. If it were only up to me I would be pregnant all the time. It is so amazing.

I felt the little kicks fairly early on and they are sooo wonderful. My two sisters put their hand on my belly and both felt a really hard punch. It was so special! He or she rolls around like a gymnast!!

I am currently pregnant with twins- a boy and a girl! This is my second pregnancy-and yes ladies this is one of the best things a woman can go through during pregnancy. Enjoy it while it lasts! I started to feel the movements during my second month. During two of my sonograms one of the twins was kicking the other on the head. So everytime I feel movement which is very constant I see them having a wrestling match. I just hope this just means that they will have a strong bond between eachother or that both are going to be brats! Whatever the reason may be, I do enjoy all the movements. Just for this reason I will consider getting pregnant again, even if it means having twins again! Enjoy! These sensations don't last forever.
