Baby movement?

Question

My placenta is in front and I have yet to feel movement- I am 21 weeks, FTM

Anyone out there in same boat?

Answer

I am. I'm at 22w and have felt vibrating in my lower belly this week like I've swallowed a cell phone. Not sure if it's him or not. I'm also obese with my stupid placenta cushioning us. Nothing else though 🙃

Answer

I have an anterior placenta and am obese. I felt my first movements at 16 weeks then not much. I am not 24 weeks+ 2 and feel her moving all the time including some very surprising kicks to my bladder. I know that it is tough and it is easy to drive yourself crazy but be patient and soon you will be wanting your little one to give you a rest.

Answer

Same. I'll be 22 w on Monday and actually caved and messaged my doctor today to see if I could move up my appointment - they said no, lol. I feel little stuff that mostly feels like gas but definitely no kicks. I really want hubby to be able to connect with the baby too! I have anterior placenta too, FTM. Sigh...

Answer

I have an anterior placenta.  I am 21wks 1day and feel movement only occasionally.

Answer

In a first time mum and have an anterior placenta too. I started feeling obvious movement from around week 18 but didn't get proper kicks that I could feel on the outside until just over 23 weeks and I think that's still quite early when your placenta is at the front. Was weird though it went from nothing to everything. He never keeps still now it's amazing. My partner can feel him all the time too xx 💙

Answer

Maybe I'm not sure what movement feels like? I feel various stretching at times, or like pinches- I always just assume it's my body stretching and making room for baby? Could this actually be baby moving?

Answer

You should be feeling them soon! Mine felt ticklish at first like an ant under my skin

Answer

Yes and I'm overweight also.  It's been really hard on me.  I was starting to lose weight when I got pregnant. I new how the weight would effect the baby and I and now the placenta is in front.  I've wanted a baby my whole life. I'm 35 and am so ashamed at how my weight is affecting my ability to bond with my child. I have lots of pressure but can't feel individual movements.  I can't wait till he's bigger and hopefully kick through my issues

Answer

I have an anterior & luckily feel him every day now. I'm 21 weeks today. But I feel him low & off to the sides where the placenta isn't. Not to worry though, with that thick placenta in the way it can take much longer to feel! If you ever get nervous just go to your OB and they'll show you that baby is just fine😊

Answer

I have the same thing i was 19 weeks when I felt him a little and only one kick and then nothing now I am 22 weeks Monday and still don't really feel him can't wait to feel him all the time and it feel more like a baby move this is my 4th pregnancy will be my first baby this is the 2nd baby I felt kick but the one I lost at 15 weeks I felt way more then our boy right now
