I’m 21 weeks and also have an anterior placenta. I only feel baby when they’re kicking down low, in the bikini line area

I’ve only had regular movement since about 28 weeks! And all down low.

I’m 19 weeks on Sunday and feel like I haven’t felt anything I am waiting for it so bad!
second scan soon, last midwife appointment strong health heartbeat. Can’t wait for next scan and when I finally can feel my baby 🥰

I had an anterior placenta with my first baby who is now 4 and it's such a worry.
I barely felt any movements......I remember being at scans and she'd be spinning like a whirling dervish in there and yet I couldn't feel a thing (still don't get how that's possible).

I started to pick up on some very subtle patterns as the pregnancy progressed but I'd have to lie very still at certain times of the day and really concentrate to feel anything - I never had big kicks though, just a little flutter

Towards the end I got more anxious and went in several times for reduced/no movements. Everything was always fine but you can't be too careful and i was put on daily monitoring for the last couple of weeks.

She was born at 38 weeks perfectly healthy and is now 4. I've just found out I'm pregnant with our second and really really hoping it's not another AP!
