I'm currently 18+3 with my second, and still don't think I've felt any movement. Im having quite a complicated high risk pregnancy, so was scanned at 16 weeks, and will be again in 4 days. The last few days i just haven't felt pregnant. I'm worried he hasnt made it.

With my daughter i didn't feel her until 21 weeks, but i just worry as everyone says you feel your second earlier

I didn't feel any proper movements until I was around 21 weeks.
I have a anterior placenta.

Even now I'm 26 weeks I can only feel movement if I'm lying down on my side 😊

I first felt small movements at 17 weeks but my placenta is to the back. Do you know where yours is?

I felt my first move at 20 weeks and that was an anterior placenta. I'm now just 20 weeks pregnant with my second and just started feeling him move last week. His placenta is at the back so the kicks are stronger but it wasn't that much sooner!

Try not to worry lovely. Baby is still so small if they are facing a certain way or depending where your placenta is you may not feel it and that's totally normal. I completely understand what you mean about not feeling pregnant though, I felt the same.

Hope you feel some little flutters and kicks soon ❤

Where's your placenta op?

I had an anterior one and was 22 weeks

Thank you for your replies. I do have an anterior placenta so that does explain it i guess. 3 more days until the scan so i can put my mind at rest! X

I've onl just started feeling mine, I'm 20+1. I'm not sure where the placenta is yet, I've my 20 week scan on Tuesday so I'll ask then.

I had anterior placenta with DS and didn't feel him till nearer 25 weeks!
