Anterior placenta

Hi,
I’m 16 weeks pregnant and had a scan today which showed the placenta is at the front. This is my third pregnancy and placenta was posterior in both of those pregnancies so I was feeling some movements by now. With this one I feel the odd little flutter but nothing regular yet.
Just wondering when people felt movement regularly if you had an anterior placenta?
Thanks x

Maybe a bit at 18 weeks, properly from 20-22 weeks ( I had anterior placenta with both pregnancies).

First flutters around 18 weeks, proper movement from around 22 weeks

First movement at just over 21 weeks, could be felt from the outside at 22 weeks

Barely any at all until about 24 weeks, it was very wierd.

At 8 months however DD flipped into breech and I definitely felt that then proceeded to kick me in my cervix for the entire month.

I had twins last time, one anterior placenta and one posterior, didn't feel anything until 21.5 weeks. I'm 20 weeks today with a singleton this time, another anterior placenta and have felt nothing so far.

Thanks for all your replies. Sounds like I might have a little while to wait then! X
