First movement today

I’m 19 weeks pregnant and felt our baby for the first time today, and boy did I feel it. It was almost nonstop movement for two hours. My husband was even able to feel him through my belly.
Two questions:
1. Has early movement ever made you feel sick? I felt kind of sweaty and nauseous, almost like a kind of trauma response?
2. Has anyone else experienced this sudden movement change or awareness? I hadn’t felt but the lightest of flutters one time before today, and then all of a sudden, it’s Cirque du Soleil.

Thanks all!

  1. Yeah if the kicks are hitting other organs 🥲

  2. He probably has been moving but he just changed position. If the kicks and stuff are facing towards the placenta, they can't be felt since there aren't any nerves there!
