The pull out method is just literally just asking to get pregnant…
Idk about phantom kicking but phantom stuff in general is totally true. I had a mastectomy earlier this year and my boobs hurt all the time (even though they aren’t there)
My ob once said if you active there is always a chance for pregnancy. No birth control is 100%.

Had my kid over 10 years ago and sometimes I swear there’s a baby in there. Mostly probably gas and what not. Also please do not use the pull out method. Tell him to man up and go get a box of condoms. Or if you are okay with it get on birth control.

The pull out method is a myth, pre cum can get you pregnant.
I still get phantom kicks and my sons just over a year old.
You wouldn’t feel movement that early even if you were pregnant. But my daughter is 5 and even still some gas bubbles feel like kicks, I just know they’re not. You might want to consider an actual form of birth control though, unless your goal is to get pregnant again.

Ugh… where are the parents of this teenager?! Damn she’s a minor and you’re allowing her to ruin her life good job. 
Little gas bubbles can do that.
I think we all get phantom kicks at some point. If you don’t want to get pregnant, I’d stop using the pull out method because pre can get you pregnant too.

I’ve had phantom kicks and I’m 2 months pp.
But…. I wouldn’t rely so much on the pull out method…
Pre cum! That is the most potent it comes out before they actually cum I would go get a test just to make sure I had my period with all 3 of my kids for 2-3 months before I found out that I was pregnant and with no signs of pregnancy
I had my daughter in 2018 and I still feel those phantom kicks. It drives me nuts because I think I’m pregnant 
I’ve taken several pregnancy tests and all were negative. I’m on birth control so I just ignore it now.
Gas can make your stomach do that too

What are people who use the pullout method called? Parents. That is barely better than not using any method. Generally you don’t feel movement until 4-5 months.

No judgment here.It sounds like gas bubbles.As a mom to teens and an almost adult(mine are 20,18 almost 19,15 will be 16 in 2 days and 14)I suggest using condoms or birth control.I was 17 when I had my 20yo

I felt phantom kicks for nearly a year and a half after my kid was born!
Well when you have your period there’s a lot happening with your internal situation so it probably feels like something is happening. If you don’t want a baby then do things to prevent it. Pull out method is notoriously awful and leads to pregnancy. You shouldn’t need to test all the time.
It’s normal and please use protraction!

I was 17 with a 6mth old daughter,
found out l was also 4mths pregnant…
My daughter had 4 periods before she found out that she was pregnant with her second child. I’d take a test.
My oldest is 21 & my youngest is just about 12. Every so often I have that feeling too. No chance I can be pregnant
My son is 5 and I get them randomly. Such a weird feeling. I’m definitely not pregnant. But I would say my core is shot to hell after having him via c section. I haven’t worked to gain my core strength so I personally think my lack of core strength makes me sensitive to feeling gas lol

1 in 5 women get pregnant every year using the pull out method, so it isn’t an effective form of birth control. I would definitely take a test and if you are truly trying to prevent pregnancy talk to a doctor about a more effective birth control method.

I would absolutely take a test to ensure you’re not pregnant again. Educate yourself on safe sex. The pullout method is the least effective method of protection against pregnancy. Condoms, hormonal birth control or FDA approved temperature monitoring cycle tracking would be a safer way to practice sex.
As for your phantom kicks. Your organs double in size while pregnant and move all over your body cavity when you’re pregnant which can contribute to that feeling. It can also take several years to stop feeling phantom kicks. My daughter is 6 and I still feel them occasionally.
my oldest is 10 my youngest is three and i still feel them
You need to get a blood test to see if you’re pregnant. Those over the counter tests are not always accurate for some women. Since you are being sexually negligent, I really hope you’re not pregnant. You are clearly too naive for such a huge responsibility.
Edit- I must’ve overlooked the part where you said you have an 8 month old. Poor child

I had my period my entire pregnancy, but I’m not going to tell you to go get a test from a store, go to the doctor instead just to make sure. Phantom kicks is one thing but with the pullout method and any discomfort you have to be as cautious as possible

Take a test. You can still have a period even though you’re pregnant. I would consider some sort of birth control for the time being.
It might just be indigestion
Not trying to be “that person” in the comments but you are 17 and already have a child. Clearly the pull out method isn’t working for you.
Birth control or condoms. I’ve gotten pregnant even with condoms but they are far better than just pulling out…
Precum can get you pregnant

Pulling out isn’t a form of birth control. If you’re trying to prevent pregnancy then go to your doctor and be put on a form of birth control. Also, you could check with the health department because they can help with birth control and condoms.

Just a heads up the pull out method does not work you may want to get yourself on some birth control! You ARE even more fertile after having a baby so odds are if you keep with the pull out method in which you got pregnant on already you are looking at having another baby so I hope you are ready and prepared for another one

I get phantom kicks occasionally! My daughter is nearly 6! This comment section has really made me feel more normal hahah.
Also please go on birth control. Pull out method is very unreliable. Unless you want another baby very quickly I suggest finding a new birth control method haha.

Usually phantom kicks are after you have the baby. Because you feel baby moving for so many months, you tend to still feel them after baby is born

The pull out method is not a good idea. You cab get pregnant from pre cum. Accidents also happen. A tiny bit can come out before he actually finishes as well. But yes phantom kick don’t always go sway
My oldest daughter is from that “pull out” method. I believe the failure rate is around 17%. If you really don’t want to get pregnant it’s not a good choice for birth control although possible better than nothing. It will likely result in a pregnancy.

Buy the 0.88 cent tests from Walmart. They work just as good as the other ones. I buy like 6 of them and keep them in the bathroom for my questionable months. However, phantom kicks are something that I’m not even sure will ever go away lol. My kids are going to be 5 and 6 this summer/fall and I still get them!!
Defiantly not a good form of birth control but my youngest is about ti be a year old an I still feel phantom kicks I’m an example pull out doesn’t work please use another form of protection if your trying to prevent pregnancy I’m two an done
You should know by now that the pull out method is ineffective. You should be using birth control.

Could be gas
But I’m here to let you know. If you don’t want another kid right now, birth control, wrap it, or no sex is the only way to prevent it.
You know they start to go off before they actually go off. So you got pre-cum in there before he pulls out.
I’ve been abstinent for many years and my kids are older teens and I still get phantom kicks from time to time lol
What is wrong with a more reliable form of birth control.

I’m 35, and have had my tubes tied for almost 7 years, and sometimes I still get phantom kicks. This morning, actually. I hate them.
But if the only methOd you’re using is the pullout method, and you’re only 8 months PP, you are still very fertile. I’d take a test.
My youngest is 8. I still feel flutters sometimes and know I’m not pregnant.
Those phantom kicks are a trip down memory lane for me
So you’re saying you want another baby since you’re not using a reliable method of birth control, got it.

Pulling out doesn’t do anything. You can still get pregnant off pre-cum
6 years later and I still get phantom kicks!
I also got pregnant, twice with the pull out method. lol….thankfully we were ready for the next step. We were together 8 years at that point. Surprised it didn’t happen sooner lol

Have had two kids, I can say that sometimes your intestines moving around can feel 100% like early pregnancy kicks (which you won’t feel until at least 12ish weeks, and even that’s very easy.)
Phantom kicks. Happened to me clear until I got pregnant again. I’ve heard it can happen years after having a baby.
I’ve felt those! Scared the heck out of me! Was probably just gas 
Tienes un PEDO atorado 
So you’re 17 with a baby already under a year old, and a fiancé, and you’re using the pull out method. So basically you’re trying for another one, let’s just call it what it is. You recently had a baby, don’t you remember? By the time you’re feeling kicks I’d hope you would know if you were in fact pregnant or not. I’d be buying some condoms rather than all the pregnancy tests. Save ya some money! 
I’m sure someone mentioned how hard it is on a young persons body to carry and birth a baby, since it’s probably not done fully developing. I imagine getting pregnant this soon won’t do anything to help. Take better care. You only get one body.
I’m genuinely curious why you aren’t using birth control? (Unless this is what you want, that is, but I assumed since you were attempting the pull out method it isn’t) You could easily go to planned parenthood and get birth control at a minimal expense or free with a small donation. The PP we have here has literally a bowl full of condoms in the lobby, anyone welcome to stop in and grab a handful, no contact or questions asked.
I’m sorry I didn’t even have an answer for your question. I’m sorry if I come off rude. Motherhood is hard, probably harder the younger you are and twice that if you’re pregnant and after that a toddler and a baby. That’s a lot. I hope you have someone you can talk to about your questions and decisions that you can trust to give you advice. I have a daughter almost your age. I want to both shake you and hug you right now. Life is hard. Don’t make it harder.
*Edit to correct myself. I see in the comments that you were on birth control. So that part I stand corrected on. You should mention that in the post, there are too many comments to read.
I didn’t even know that was a thing , but it explains a lot 
Ohhhh it lasts years! 
Probably for the rest of your life. My child is 2, will be 3 in October, and I still get them. And they are HARD. Sometimes they hurt.

People are mentioning the pullout method and birth control because it’s clearly stated in the post that is what they’re doing for birth control. Op comments later to say she was on bc the first time she got pregnant but nothing about that in the post.
There are many ways to ask what phantom kicks are without mentioning all the rest, but phantom kicks are the least of the problems and this is an advice page so… I’m not sure what was expected here🤷🏻♀️
