How can I identify when my baby starts kicking for the first time, and what are the common symptoms associated with it?

Sometimes your baby will kick early in the pregnancy. Like a light butterfly feeling movement. Or a feeling like gas moving around your stomach (but not leaving) once the baby gets bigger the kicks will be strong and there will be no question about it!

I felt bubbles popping at 18 weeks. At 22 weeks I felt a thumping. It feels like thumping to me.
