i wouldn;t be concerned, without a placenta, you'd have no baby. not sure why she would be looking for it. at your 20 week scanm you would have been advised if the placenta was too low, for example, so if all was well then, then you're ok

maybe it was previously easy to feel and she was just surprised that she couldn't this time???

am clutching at straws

my midwife, only sought mine out so she could let me listen to the different sound, between the placenta and the babies heartbeat, more out of interest than anything I think
