For those of you who were overweight before pregnancy, when did you start to feel the baby kick? I have PCOS & gained 70 pounds in the 2 years of trying before getting pregnant. I've read that it usually takes longer when you've got extra insulation, so I'm wondering how much longer. I've had a COMPLETELY different experience with this pregnancy than all of my friends & family (probably cuz this is the first girl since me) so everyone keeps asking me about feeling her kick & it makes me anxious. Even during ultrasounds after I've had a 20 oz fruit smoothie, she just sleeps. The techs always comment on how lazy & stubborn she is. I THINK I've felt her kick twice (after large amounts of sour foods), but that could have been my tummy revolting at all the sourness haha.

@cfernandar24, hahaha that last line. My hubby said he thought I was dying during the 1st trimester. Honestly, I felt like I was. It was rough. I just started getting ridiculously weak last night. I can't sit or stand without being overcome with dizziness & I stumble with every few steps I take. I fell into the wall walking to the bathroom (literally a total of 5 steps from my bed) last night. I have the anatomy scan Wednesday & my hubby isn't sure his command is going to let him go. At this rate, I'll have to cancel if he's not able to take me cuz there's absolutely no way I can drive myself! I wouldn't trade any of it cuz this is my miracle baby (we did fertility treatments for 2 years before running out of money... then I got pregnant out of nowhere a few months after our 1st IVF counseling. Every once in awhile I'll wonder if I can do this again, but we've already decided we're going to try again right after she's born since you're supposed to be the most fertile then. I've always been opposed to having 2 kids in diapers at the same time, but gotta make the best of your situation, right? We both want at least 3 & I'm not getting any younger haha.
@abaigealleigh, oh my.. honey! I feel so bad for you! And pray that you can easy your issues soon enough! I still throw up too! And I have never been so weak in my entire life! Some days I cant even get out of bed... My husband said that seeing my suffering we might not get pregnant again... Some days I could see his eyes tearing of watching my misery! 😢😓 But I am so blessed I wanted this baby more then life itself and trying for 2 years makes me believe I can get thru this! These women that say "oh my pregnancy was a delight" are not humans! 😂😂😂 and I am positive about that!!! LOL
@sarahplus2, my tech told me during the gender scan that boys always seem to be more active & less modest in the womb haha. My baby girl kept shoving her hands between her legs to block us from seeing her goods.
@ashgreen13617, I can definitely relate! I got bronchitis around 7 weeks as well & was SOOOOO nervous to take anything. It was a nightmare. I'm just getting over my 3rd major sickness during this pregnancy.
And my when I have ultrasounds the boy is always more active than the girl.
I'm sorry your pregnancy has been rough everyone is different my first was great except I got motion sickness riding down the road so bad I always throw up in the car this one I'm only 7 weeks and I have asthma also and it's been hard for me to breath I get short of breath and I just developed bronchitis which you know is normal in asthma people. if you ever just need to talk I'm always willing to listen
I probably didn't start feeling my twins kick regularly until about twenty or so weeks. Started as small fluttered and picked up, now I still can't tell who is who or anything. And sometimes I can feel them from the outside.
Ya'll are making me feel better. Literally everyone in my family has told me how perfect their pregnancies were & how all of their chronic issues completely disappeared while pregnant (my family is plagued with extreme asthma & allergies). I've been the exact opposite. I've been in the ER every single weekend since 10 weeks with either a migraine or uncontrolled vomiting. I'm still throwing up every single time I eat at 18 weeks. I have an asthma attack every time I walk up the stairs to my apt. I'm covered in hives 24/7 even when taking allergy medicine. This has not been a pleasant experience haha. @cfernandar24 @fluffiieemommiiee @ashgreen13617
@abaigealleigh, Hi honey! I also have PCOS tried for 2 years to conceive and i am 50 pounds over weight! So far in this pregnancy I put 13 pounds by a miracle of God! Because I was very sick in the beggining.. I felt flutters as early as 10 weeks and EVERYBODY told me It was impossible! At 17 weeks I felt her active as is! But its only now at 23 week that my hubby can feel it too! I also had a few times where she slept a lot but I think its normal! The tech also pointed out that one time she was to far back! So maybe thats possible too some women carry in their back! I feel pressure but not kicks when I feel like she is further! No worries so much! Enjoy every stage of your pregnancy and YES we are all so different my pregnancy has been so different from all my friends including the ones with girls! 😘😘😘
at first it felt like little weird flutter you get me?lol then after they got stronger.they scared me I was like wow now I really feel you
my son was lazy he didn't kick much it could be that when I was around 35 weeks I felt him more because he had no mare room and ever inch he moved I felt but he was my lazy baby
I lost a ton of weight during my 1st too! I'm 18 weeks now & have just made it back to my pre pregnancy weight. What did it feel like when you him? @fluffiieemommiiee
before I got pregnant I was at 298.I lost 20pounds during first&second; trimester.but slowly gain it back.I felt his kicks at 20weeks.its diff for every pregnancy
I know that I for sure felt my son at 18-20 weeks. Once we found out the gender little bean wouldn't stop moving. Just you wait girl I'm 32 weeks and he has kept me up all. Night. Long! It's a blessing though, I can feel him move and stretch rather than kick now! But before that, he was stubborn and lazy! Wouldn't move around to get a quality 3D ultrasound either! Some babes are more cooperative than others!
