I have recently had a scan at 21 weeks. The sonographer told me that everything looked okay (this is my first scan) and asked if I had been feeling any movements. I replied that I hadn't felt anything yet. She then had another good look and told me that I had an anterior placenta, and that could be the reason why I haven't felt anything yet.
Anyway after googling this (I know I shouldn't!) it says that sometimes another scan is needed later on in pregnancy to check whether the placenta has moved. No one mentioned anything about another scan and I'm not seeing my midwife for a while. I can't find anything in my notes that indicates I might need another.
I still haven't felt any movements (this is my second baby, with my first I felt flutters from 16 weeks). My midwife is pretty rubbish tbf, she forgot to book my 12 week scan, went on holiday for three weeks and I couldn't contact her for 2. Is it worth mentioning at my next appointment or should I just leave it?
