A: It is possible that you'll feel fetal movement sooner with twins than with a singleton pregnancy. However, there is a lot of variation in when women perceive fetal movement. This is partly because of the variability between pregnancies in the location of the placenta and the position and size of babies.

If your placenta is attached to the front wall of your uterus, it may buffer your perception of fetal movement, making it harder to feel early fetal kicks. If your babies are facing your back it may take longer to feel their movements as well.

During second pregnancies, women often notice fetal movement about two weeks earlier than during first pregnancies. For this reason, you will likely be feeling movement sooner.
