30 + 3 anterior placenta movements

[Shanmoo]

So this is my first baby. I've felt tiny movements from about 16 weeks. My placenta is at the front which affects movement greatly. Baby has never really got into a pattern of movements. I thought it did, had a week of very active nights and mornings but this has slowed down now. I told my midwife this on Tuesday and she wasnt concerned and said she could see movement and maybe I just wasn't feeling it all. How do you ladies cope with this? I've been back and forward to l&d with reduced movements but everything is fine and even had a scan. Baby is measuring on the big side. ( 3 weeks ahead) but other than that nothing major . Any advice much appreciated!

I had this with my first.. Never felt very much apart from maybe a big roll around 10:30 at night! He was 9lbs at birth and so I don't think he had much room t stretch out.. My placenta then was at the back so the two things together would def make a difference for you I think!

I'm 37 weeks pregnant again and I have an anterior placenta and I don't feel too much jyst a few prods etc. X

smorgasborgen it's so frustrating isn't it? Movement is so different on a day to day basis. I find it really hard to know whether to panic about lack of movements, or if it's just the position of the baby.
