Movement

[Elfs Mummy]

I've only felt one lot of flutters and I'm 18 weeks :/ with my daughter and son I had regular movements by now

I am 23 weeks and don't feel much as my placenta is anterior

 

[Onedaysoon25]

I wasn't feeling much with my second at 18 weeks either, such a worry when my first started at 17 weeks. She is making up for it now but I would say give it a week or two for the flutters.
My placenta is also anterior so I put it down to that x

 

[MissCharli]

Almost 22 weeks and I haven't felt very much, also anterior placenta! Maybe you also have this

 

[Dream14]

I never felt anything with my first until I was around 20 weeks! I was the same worried but give it a few weeks xxxx

I'm just over 18 weeks too, and I think I've felt some pokess or jabs, but only once last week. And even then I'm not sure.
I have no idea where my placenta is, because no one has ever told me..

 

[Elfs Mummy]

I hope it's not anterior placenta I love feeling kicks and it's my last baby so want to make the most of all the movement x

Check your notes chick, it might say in there? It could be a couple of things, anterior placenta or that's it's #3 so everything is stretchier and they have more room to hide in

I was never really told either, I just overheard them at my 20 week scan, it's also in my notes under my 20 weeks scan details - maybe have a look and see if it says anything?

My midwife was the one who told me exactly where on the front it was which was why I had only been feeling kicks on one side!

I've been feeling flutters. But, nothing more then that at this point.

Baby 3 here and have felt flutters since 11 weeks and could feel small kicks from about 17 weeks. But I have normal placenta location. I also have hardly had any gap between pregnancies though so I'm so in tune to feeling movements that I think I notice them before other people might. Every baby is different too and it might just be that they are a lot more active when you are sleeping so you aren't noticing them. My 1st was never that active in the day but at night time she would go nuts to the point it woke me up in tri 3 x

 

[Elfs Mummy]

Still only the occasional flutter but can hear hb on my monitor, looking forward to my scan so I'll know where my placenta is. Ds was hugely active at my 12 week scan where as this baby was a lot more chilled out x

I'm 15 weeks tomorrow and I was wondering when will I start feeling proper movements! This has been helpful

 

[MrsDuckie]

19 weeks 4 days here and just felt flutters so far, for the past few weeks. Tends to be when I'm sat down late afternoon/evening. Baby boy has been pretty chilled in our past two scans, so I think he's lazy in the day lol.

Also looking forward to feeling proper kicks

I'm 22 weeks with my first and feel him most days now it has been getting more often I think I started noticing movement more around 19weeks but I know my other friend who is due in May didn't feel nothing with her little girl until she was 23 weeks! So I wouldn't worry seems like everyone is different 🤗

Update to those still wondering - I'm 20 weeks tomorrow and I've been feeling very light jabs more frequently now. I'm now sure it's movement/kicks. I first felt one exactly at 18 weeks but wasn't sure as this is my first kiddo, and they've been happening more often in the last week, mostly when sitting/lying down.

I can't wait until they can be felt from the outside and I can share it with the father :O

 

[JulyBug]

Aww yay, glad your feeling more movement now, it's exciting isn't it!

I always notice movement more after a large meal or when I finally sit down after rushing around all day!

[Olivia118]

I read through my notes the other day and saw that I also have an anterior placenta! We shall see when i start feeling things

 

[MissCharli]

I have only been feeling definite movements regularly for the past week, so I guess it just takes a bit longer Nice now it's finally happened though!

 

[Olivia118]

Ahh exciting
