Anterior placenta

For anyone who knows or has experienced it. This is my first pregnancy and I have an anterior placenta at how many weeks should I feel the baby move?

It will still vary from person to person and pregnancy to pregnancy. But I didn't feel mine until between 23-26 weeks approximately. And even then it was just flutters here and there.

It really depends on exactly where your placenta is located. Usually between 20-24, possibly as late as 28 weeks.

In a first time mom, it's not that much earlier...still 20-24, as late as 28 weeks. There are a lot of factors that determine when a mom-to-be feels her baby move and kick.

My first was posterior and I felt movement at 16 weeks.
This time its anterior and I felt movement really low around 24 weeks. Now it doesn't make a difference. I feel him almost everywhere now.

Oh ok I didn't know that. I hear a lot of moms even first time say 16-18 weeks but I guess there were other factors involved

Oh, well at least now u feel the baby all the time. That's good :-) I can't wait to feel my baby kick

This is my last pregnancy and I have an anterior placenta. It's the first one I have had and I have had 4 other pregnancies. I am currently 21 weeks pregnant and hardly feel my baby move. I only really feel it when he rolls. The specialist said it would be around 24 weeks before I really felt more movement. The placenta acts like a pillow between the baby and abdominal wall. During my last ultrasound my little guy was kicking the heck out of the placenta and I didn't feel a thing. It can also be harder to hear the heart beats when listening for it by doppler.

I didn't feel mine move until 22 weeks. Never felt "flutters" just little kicks that got harder eventually. The good thing was it blocked alot of the hard kicks they said I would've felt and would have kept me up at night.

So I have a while to go : / I'm 15 weeks. I didn't even know the placenta could implant anywhere but the back lol well now I know. At my 12 week nt scan they were able to hear the heart perfectly and the tech nor my doc mentioned my placenta being anterior which I found a little odd but it was on the paper they gave me about the results of my scan.

Lol my friend told me the same that I'm lucky I'll sleep at night. But I feel like I'm not getting the full experience lol

I thought the same thing. But I'm glad I got my sleep then cuz she definitely doesn't let me sleep now LOL

I felt her at exactly 20 weeks. I don't feel her all the time so I don't know if I can ever do kick counts. Sometimes I only feel her a few times a day sometimes I feel her all day. I'm 23w3d now.
