A member asked:

How can i feel my baby movement as i am pregnant of 17 week? sometimes i feel pulses ccoming from my stomach. is that him

A doctor has provided 1 answer

First preg?: Baby kicking is usually not picked up in first pregnancy till 21 weeks, not because your baby is not moving but due to lack of experience. You will know when it happens, usually feels like a flutter initially, talk to some one with more than one small babies. Good luck.
