anterior placenta - when did you start feeling kicks?

[Anonymous]

That's the q - if you had an anterior placenta, how long did it take to start feeling the baby kicking?

[Anonymous]

5.5-6 months

Quite late for me (and baby #2, so I thought perhaps I'd feel it earlier) - maybe 24 weeks or so?

I felt some light fluttering around 20 weeks or so, but nothing substantial until probably closer to 24 weeks. She was my first baby. I didn't have an anterior placenta with my second baby, and I was shocked at the difference.

21 weeks

16 weeks on the dot (it was christmas day, which is why i remember)

Flutters around 16-18 maybe and real movement around 22? I had two anterior placenta pregnancies but can’t remember exact weeks. Hopefully if I have a third I’ll have a posterior one! Would love to experience that.

I didn't. It was so bad because I never felt any movements, only hiccups occasionally and I could see her sticking out at the top. It was very scary towards the end.

Never. I felt rolling movement but no kicks no hiccups

like 22 weeks

Same for me with 2 babies but I feel myself ovulate

I was never quite 100% sure what I was feeling. It was so subtle. It wasn’t until after giving birth that I REALLY noticed it— its absence.

At about 16 weeks I had tiny flutters but by 24 when my belly was bigger I had a ton of movement at the top and sides. Never had a hand or foot visible but I could see a moving bump that was her knee a couple times.

I never felt kicks, ever.

But my child was born safely and healthy and is the center of my universe.
