Placenta moved?

It was firmly posterior a few weeks ago, today I had another scan and it's partially moved to the front - why I've not felt much movement. I'm 20 + 2. Is this normal??

Think it moves a bit as your bump grows. Hence placenta previa is not always a problem as it moves out of the way as the bump grows bigger.

Yes, mine was low and moved up as the bump grew

But moving from back to front?! It's kind of arching.

Dont think it’s unusual. Everything moves around until the later stages when it doesn’t have much room to.

I had anterior and barely felt anything at all before 22 weeks

Placenta doesn't move exactly - the uterus atrophies so as a new bit growths the placenta changes position. It's a bit hard to describe - hope that makes sense!

Mine moved from posterior to anterior somewhen between 20 and 28 weeks. From what I’ve read it’s quite normal.
