Anterior placenta moms...
When did you really start to feel the baby move on a consistent basis? I am 23 weeks and still don't feel much. It makes me sad bc I only have 16 weeks left and want to enjoy every second of this!

Re: Anterior placenta moms...
I had the AP both times-- and I really started to feel what I knew was movement early this time (like 13 weeks, I was shocked)... Even now at 33 weeks though, some time movement is crazy-- and other times I get worried that I am not feeling much, but I know everything is muted cause of the placenta position. I had experiences where I was having a sonogram and the baby was moving all over, and I didn't feel it... Try not to worry and you WILL feel movement.

Re: Anterior placenta moms...
I had an anterior placenta with my first. I started feeling flutters around 20w, but didn't feel real movement until about 26w - and even then it was sporadic DH didn't feel him kick for the 1st until the night of my shower (which was somewhere around 30w).

Re: Anterior placenta moms...
My sister had an AP and she felt the kicks around 23 weeks but never felt the hard strong kicks that I feel. She did say she feels like she missed out on that part.

This was me. I barely ever felt her. DH was never able to feel her from the outside. I did kind of feel gyped. Half the time I didn't even know she was in there.

Re: Anterior placenta moms...
When my friend had AP, she didn't feel the baby moving until 26 or 27 weeks.
I have it now and I started feeling something random around 16 weeks. I discounted it as gas. But at 18 weeks I started to feel movement that felt more like baby actually moving. At 19 weeks I felt sure it was the baby and at my 20 week sono, I confirmed that what I felt was baby kicking me (he/she is breach and apparently I can only feel his/her kicks because the placenta isn't really in the way down by the feet... at least from what I saw on the sono).
BUTTTTT I only feel baby like once or twice a day at most. I can't wait to feel more movement consistently. I really eases my mind.

Re: Anterior placenta moms...
After 20 weeks. Trust it will be more consistent the further you get along. Mine got stronger every week that went by. Im 35 weeks and I feel hands, feet, head, everything!
ETA: I find that laying on my right side in a quiet room at night (bedroom) will get the most movement/feeling.

Re: Anterior placenta moms...
I just found out I have an AP and was wondering why Im in my 19th week and still not feeling anything... Now it makes sense I just want me & DH to feel it by the time we're on our babymoon... It'll be so memorable for the 2 of us... Damn AP and tilted uterus... What else can I get
