You could start feeling movement anytime now and DEF feel him/her by 22/24 weeks. I know I couldn't wait either. It's an AMAZING time.

You are around the time you should be feeling movement. But sometimes if you were over weight prior to getting pregnant it could take you a while longer.

I wasn't even overweight before I got pregnant and it took me until around 21 weeks to feel him move. It just takes some people a little longer than others. You will feel your baby and it will be wonderful. Once they start they never stop!

yea, they forgot to mention that it never stops! for some reason that just kinda slipped my mind... NOT NOW!! lol. I felt mine FIRST around 10wks and I was heavier than you. you also didn't say height, so there's a difference between a 5' 175 girl and a 6' 175 girl, ya know?

It'll come soon enough and when it does, you'll beg it stop so you can sleep!
