Answer by Dr Rowena S, MD (doctor) on Mon 30, Aug 2010 12:02am:

Hi, How are you? The first movements of your baby or quickening usually occurs anywhere from you 13th to 25th week age of gestation. This varies from one pregnant to another. The fluttering you felt may indeed be due to this especially if this is your first pregnancy. Regular prenatal consult is highly recommended. Take care and do keep us posted.
