Default 1st gear transmission

Hi Everyone,
My transmission would slip (for 2-4 seconds) in 1st gear when accelerating from a full stop. It starts to accelerate then it acts like wheels got on a piece of ice and then accelerate normally and shift to 2nd gear. It doesn't act like that all the time and/or if I accelerate slowly . All other gears work great, shifts smoothly etc. Car has 130k, all fluids replaced about 1 year ago or 15k. After all that said I'm not even sure that the problem is in my transmission I would appreciate any opinions.
Thank You Guys

Are you loosing traction? Does the ABS flash (assuming the ABS is working).

I'm not losing traction. ABS is not flashing and it's working. I checked the ECU and I didn't find any trouble codes either. Thank You Salim!!!!
