Movement on one side

Hello,

Is it normal to only feel any movement to the lower left of my stomach? I’m 24 weeks and have been told I have an anterior placenta

Thank you!

Hey,
I had an anterior placenta and around that far I was only getting movements certain sides.
LO will very much be moving whole body just you can’t feel it through placenta yet, a little hand or foot must be away from the placenta, is that makes sense 😂
As they get stronger you’ll start to feel it all over and also see them poking out!

I wonder if they have comfortable positions to stretch? My first DC kicked up at the top right a lot right by my ribs, like she lined up her feet in that position. Second DC felt like he kicked down on my bladder lots.

Oh really! Yes that’s true!

My little one has always preferred the right side :) Can now feel her all over because she’s bigger though!

Currently 22 weeks with number 2 and I mostly feel him to the right or very low, not sure I've ever left him on the left. My eldest was similar, mostly felt him kick to the right. I think they just have preferred positions.

I have an anterior placenta too and I feel very little movement on my right side. Movement started mostly on the left side but has moved further round as she has grown.
