High Anterior Placenta

[frankie247]

I found out that I've got a high anterior placenta and think it explains why I haven't felt much movement.

Anyone else have one? Did it affect how you felt the kicks or when they started?

I have the same hun and think that's why I haven't felt loads of movement. My SIL's placenta is positioned at the back so she's felt really strong kicks for quite a while. Won't be long until we're feeling the little ones boot us xxx

yea hun i have the same and felt movements a lot later on this time it was around 19 weeks before i felt the first lot of flutters, and around 23/24 weeks when the stronger kicks started and there is no stopping him now xxx

I have only just started feeling Riven properly booting me one , I have felt small pops but he is definately getting stronger lol..

OH managed to have a good feel last night

I am hoping that it moves soon

I have the same. Felt my first son at 18 weeks but didn't feel this wee man until about 24 weeks xx

I was going to ask the same thing! I have anterior placenta and am not sure if I have even felt flutters yet. Want to feel movement so badly now!! Hope LO hurries up with thr boots!

Thanks all - its just frustrating as now morning sickness has gone - I was planning on relying on feeling movement to let me know all was well. Hopefully we'll just be a few weeks behind, with feeling kicks

I have an anterior placenta and it definately effects how much movement I feel. Some tiimes she proper kicks and you can feel it on the outside and other times it feels so far away I wonder if I imagined it. Alot of the time I just feel a popping kind of sensation. Hopefully in the next few weeks I should start feeling more, I'm hoping!

i have an anterior placenta and a baby that hides behind it . even the consultants cant find her heartbeat

 

[babyelmo]

I was told i've got that too but i'm still feeling a lot of kicking all over the place, although it's mostly quite low, the high kicks are kind of dull thuds. I was really surprised when the sonographer told me that because of the amount of kicking i've felt. Maybe mine is really high?

i were never told anything about placenta x

 

[Kirsty.Y.84]

Have a look on your notes from your scan, Loula. It should say on there. Mine is complete opposite, very low and posterior! x

 

[Daydreaming]

I'm same as Babyelmo - been feeling flutterings and now firmer feelings for a while now. But reports say I am anterior - even though baby's heartbeat is easy to find. Guessing mine must only be half anterior then.

Sure those big kicks will be coming to all of you soon!

I have an anterior placenta too, i dont feel much and im 26+2, there are days where i can go from feeling little flutters to feeling nothing at all. The sonographer told me as long as its not low lying and anterior it shouldn't cause any problems ..It just makes it a bit trickier to feel them moving around
