I am 23 weeks today and still have not felt my baby boy. I have an anterior placenta which essentially is a buffer between me and baby kicks but I am getting frustrated and want to feel something already. Doctor said I may not feel anything until 25 weeks when the movements are stronger. 2 more weeks then. Anyone else not feel baby until later in their pregnancy? Any other anterior placentas out there?
@co1017, thank you! Yes! Enjoy the calm before the storm because the baby will definitely be giving you a beating from the inside before you know it lol! One day you feel nothing, the next they're having their own kickboxing class in your tummy lol
@mommabird, This is my first so I am sure that is part of my delayed feeling but knowing a second time mommy did not feel until later makes me feel better. I know I will regret complaining about him not moving eventually like you said. Haha! 😜
@co1017, yes we do!! I sure hope do haha. It will be nice to hear her and make sure she is ok!
Mine is anterior but this is my second pregnancy so I felt her daily around 20-21 weeks. Don't worry, pretty soon you'll be smacking her bottom telling her to calm down so you can get some rest lol.
@1sttimemommy0516, Thank you for sharing! That makes me feel so much better that the movements are coming but I just have to wait a little longer. Haha! I keep saying to enjoy the calm before he starts beating me from the inside like you said. Good luck to you as well! 😆
@newmama2016, You will feel so much better after you get one! My doctor said the same so we just have to hang in there. ☺
I have an anterior placenta and didn't feel constant movement until about 24-26 weeks. It sucked because I'm a FTM and I kept hearing about everyone else feeling their baby move early and I wasn't feeling anything. I'm 36 weeks now and it feels like she's ripping my insides open at times lol! Best of luck to you 😊
I don't even have that yet, but as soon as my next paycheck goes through I am getting one.. the stress is just too much to take, especially now that we are in the 20 weeks! Nope, not alone! My OB said this was actually a pretty common thing, it sucks, like alot, but common. 🤐 @co1017
@newmama2016, Yes! That is exactly what it means. Ok, I'm glad I'm not alone in this. I have a doppler I use to check heartbeat because that is all I can do to make sure baby is still ok in there. Ugh. 😕
That means the placenta is on top right? If so ✋✋✋✋ I thought I had been feeling movements but now idk. Have not felt anything for awhile. the placenta looks so big on ultrasound and her little face is always smooshed into it. And I am a bigger girl to begin with. It is frustrating.
Anterior placenta?
I found out yesterday, at my 20 week scan, that I have an anterior placenta and won't feel my baby kick as much due to it. Not until late pregnancy. Anyone else have the same thing? If so, when did you feel your baby kick?

I hate having an anterior placenta.
