The '''Quickening''' as it related to pregnancy is a reference to the first time a mother can feel movements. While a baby in the womb may begin to move as early as 8 weeks these movements are typically not perceptible until after 20 weeks for new mothers and 18 weeks for women who have had two or more prior full term pregnancies. By the time the quickening occurs [[miscarriage]] is almost certain not to occur.
