The baby moves in the gut since it is barely an embryo, however it is so tiny that we still cannot notice it. But when exactly the movements of the baby inside you begin to be noticed.
It is impossible to specify the exact day that you will begin to feel your baby's movements in the gut, it depends on each woman and each pregnancy and also depends on whether it is your first pregnancy or not.
In the first gestation, the baby's movements usually begin to feel between week 18 and week 20. Even if you pay special attention during the previous weeks you will notice a kind of bubbling or “mariposeo” inside the uterus. They are the preliminaries before feeling the first movements.
In any case, between the fourth and the fifth month of pregnancy the long-awaited first kick is finally felt, that although we call it kicking it may well be a displacement of arms or legs, punches or turns.
If it is not your first pregnancy, usually the baby's movements begin to be noticed about two weeks before, that is, between week 16 and week 18. This is possibly because the walls of the uterus and the abdominal walls have less muscle tone , but it may be perfectly normal to start feeling them later. It depends on the body of each woman.
There will be more favorable times of the day to start feeling the baby, for example when you are lying in bed at the end of the day or after eating some sweet food since the glucose supply stimulates the baby's movements.
The truth is notice that the baby moves inside you It is a wonderful and reassuring thing, since the baby's movements are a sign of fetal well-being. Those who have ever felt it can ensure that it is a full and unparalleled experience and the beginning of a very special communication between the mother and her child.
