when can you start feeling baby move

You can start feeling your baby move usually between 16 and 24 weeks of pregnancy. First-time mothers might feel these movements closer to 20-24 weeks, while women who have been pregnant before may notice movements as early as 13-16 weeks. These early movements often feel like gentle flutters, bubbles, or butterflies, and become more distinct kicks and jabs as the pregnancy progresses. If no movement is felt by 24 weeks, it is advised to contact a healthcare provider. Baby movements tend to be more noticeable when resting quietly and are usually more active in the afternoon and evening.
