I'm 18 weeks Friday and I'm pretty sure I can feel them, but I guess I don't really know for sure. People always mention that "butterfly" feeling but what I keep feeling is more like a little twitch or cramp or pinch down in the area where the babies are resting. Sometimes on the right side, sometimes on the left. I've been feeling it for a couple weeks, and it's been getting stronger/more frequent, so I really think that's what it must be. But I haven't yet had that, "a ha! definitely movement!" moment.

If it turns out I'm right, then I'm going to have to be the first to debunk the myth about that butterfly bullsh*t. Just joking, I know it's different for everyone, but this doesn't feel like a butterfly. More like a very small crab.
