Not feeling baby- thoughts?

Question

I’m 25+1 and have an anterior placenta. I’ve been feeling the baby which I thought were fetal movements but am thinking now they’re really just hiccups. Is it normal to feel hiccups and no “kicks” with an anterior placenta? I had a miscarriage before this pregnancy so naturally I’m a bit paranoid...I’m going to chat with my doctor but wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this before.

Answer

Try drinking a cold, sugary, fizzy drink. My placenta is anterior and I'm 24+5, I feel baby but only on the left and right sides and he goes crazy after a glass of caffeine free cola.

Answer

I just made a very similar post, I’m in the same position but not quite so far along as you try (21+4). Hope we both feel it soon. I completely understand about worrying because of a miscarriage; I’m just the same. My last pregnancy ended at week 10, which is obviously much earlier than we are now, but I still worry.

Answer

I am 24 weeks, did feel the baby for sure until about 22 weeks. He seems to follow a bit of a routine. He is most active when I lay on my side as I'm going to sleep but he will usually move more if if I lay on my side generally and then switch sides. I have very low expectations for movement since I know I have an anterior. The kicks are also usually down lower just above my pubic bone
