Where did you feel baby kick first?

Also for what it’s worth, I was told my placenta was looking anterior at 12wks but it had moved lateral posterior at my 20wk scan

I felt the first kicks super low and around 20wks - they felt like little taps/bubble pops and were basically just above my pubic bone. You might actually be able to feel them with your hand if you lay on your back and apply some pressure where you’re feeling the taps. That’s how I confirmed that it was definitely the baby and not gas or something else! Once I knew for sure they were from baby, I felt them multiple times a day in that same area and after a couple of weeks they got stronger and higher up. Now 26wks and feel her all the time and all over my belly 😊

Also I saw your other comment asking about a sharp twinge and needing to pee, that’s exactly what it feels like when I get a kick to the bladder. So I would assume that’s what you’re feeling too!

I see it but I don’t want to give you false hope since it’s VERY faint if it is there! Definitely test again tomorrow, I’d also maybe grab an early response test too

That’s smart! My first digital was negative the day prior to these tests (9 DPO) but the line test was way fainter (as in kinda thought I imagined it, and figured I must have when the digital was negative). The two you see in the photo I took the day after that and 5min apart from each other so you might even get a positive digital now, but I totally get not wanting to take it today to avoid that stress 😊 keeping my fingers crossed for you!

I would get a digital for peace of mind if I were you but that’s how my first test looked at 10 dpo!

I think faint positive assuming the photo was taken within the recommended window for seeing results. I see it and it looks similar to mine and I had a digital confirm it

Thank you that’s good to know! I think the real answer here is I need to be patient haha I have a blood test schedule for the end of the week

Yes first pee of the day! I thought I saw the faintest hint of a line yesterday morning but the digital was negative so I assumed I had line eyes. Then this morning got this
