Hey I’m 21 weeks pregnant with my second baby and still have not felt baby move, I know I’m meant to wait till 24 weeks before I get concerned but felt my first baby at 19 weeks and still not felt anything this time round, been for scans and checks etc they all say baby is fine am I just being paranoid? And advice would be lovely

Hey, I'm currently 30 weeks with baby and didn't feel her move until around 26 weeks midwife's weren't concerned because of the way she was laying facing backwards xx

Thank you every scan we get he turns into my back my placenta is also at the front I’m trying so hard not to worry, I just really wish I could feel him, everyone I talk to says they can feel there baby move makes me more paranoid

If the placenta is at the front it’s very normal for it to take longer to feel movement. I know it’s really hard but try not to worry.

Hello! I am 21 weeks pregnant with number 3 and my placenta is at the front. I think only in the last week have I felt more definite movements but it is different to my other 2 pregnancies. The midwife told me it is common to not feel as much at the front but if you lie on your side you sometimes feel more movement?? I do find this too when I'm trying to sleep at night on my side, baby always tries to move away or something? It is a very weird feeling having an anterior placenta so I feel your pain xx
