Question:
Is it normal to feel like the baby is so far in u don’t really feel him or her ?
Cause b4 I felt her and it felt like if I poked my tummy I’d poke her now it’s like she’s low and hidden
@miaheka, oh thank u so much I feel better knowing this
@sarahtrust16, Nothing bad at all. Your placenta is front of her not behind so when she kicks you, she’s actually kicking your placenta. As she gets bigger her kicks will be strong enough for you to feel them. She’s still small in there at 23 weeks. I didn’t start feeling my little boy’s kicks till 27weeks, and even then they were very on and off till 28 weeks and that’s when they got stronger for me. The placenta can shift sometimes, but only up and down.
@miaheka, So it’s nothing bad it’s just the placenta is in the way it doesn’t hurt her growth or anything? Also can the placenta shift sometimes?
I just saw your recent ultrasound, and I saw that you do have an anterior placenta. It explains why you haven’t been feeling baby girl’s movements too much, but don’t worry! Soon she will be kicking the crap out of you as she gets bigger! 😊
Ugh ill definitely ask because it would make me feel better
@sarahtrust16, oh and yea they didn’t tell me abt the anterior placenta thing either first ultrasounds, at my 3D gender scan she said something abt it and I asked my doctor.. which told me that I did.. idk y he didn’t think to mention it 🤷♀️
@sarahtrust16, yup.. as weeks passed by I started feeling my little man really moving around and pressing against and other times my stomach is loose and don’t feel anything at all. It’s weird but since abt 28 weeks I can really feel his movements without question, active as hell sometimes lol
@joyfulmom2b, yea that’s how mine feels because at one point I really felt her now it’s like she buried inside and doesn’t want to play lol
I have an anterior placenta and I didn’t really feel the baby moving to much till later or only felt movements on the sides of my belly but yeah it’s pretty normal unless it’s low.. I’ve heard it’s a issue sometimes. But yeah it feels like that for me, he’s either right there or far back feeling
@jayraemama, well good think I have an appointment coming up
Some days my stomach is flat. It creeps me out.
Will your Mom be in the delivery room?
My mom made it sound like she was gonna be in the delivery room when I give birth, and quite frankly, I would just like it to be me and my fiancé. It's our first, and I want to share that special moment with just him. I don't want to hurt her feelings, and I know this is something she would really like to be a part of. So I feel bad telling her no.
I feel like I'm the only chick belly button doesn't poke out 😫😂
Has anyone felt their baby ? Like actually felt it from the outside ?
I was sitting and by my rib I felt pressure and knew she was hanging out there and as I pressed down lightly it's like I felt something hard but not too hard and I kept poking at it and then she moved and couldn't feel her there anymore ! Is that possible 😳
So this girl i am kinda friends with asked me if i feel like my face changed after having babies, because she felt like hers did majorly.. so i said other than my double chin & weight gain, no.. and i told her she looks great after having two kids! and she goes on to say - "don't be offended, but you LOOK like a mom ." 😳 she was trying to make me feel like shit. I feel like I look the same.. & the way she said was obv meant to offend me 😡 like, she just made me feel like complete crap.
I started feeling down cause baby girl won't be breastfed. Kinda feel like I'm failing her. Any advice?
@sarahtrust16, you’re welcome beautiful! If you look at your 20 week ultrasound, the white blob looking thing in front of your baby is your placenta. Glad I could help!💛😊
