Baby movements

I am 23w5 days with anterior placenta as well and I just started feeling the movement last week. I can also only feel it really low down.
Yes anterior placenta here, 21w5 and I only feel tiny kicks/thuds in my pelvis. I get bubbles here and there or a rare kick on the sides of the tummy. Nothing in the front.
Anterior here and I only feel movement high up as baby is head down in my pelvis and legs up.
Anterior placenta here too, now 25 weeks and 6 days and only started feeling kicking that wasn’t to the side or down below yesterday x
I am currently 37 weeks pregnant with an anterior placenta my first baby, I felt bubble like feeling from 20+4 weeks could only just feel them if I was laid down, I only started feeling kicks at 25+5 days and they started on my right hand side quite low down but all of a sudden they became higher up, it depends what position they are in, I rushed to triage at 27 weeks as I didn’t feel her but she was kicking and booting me but because she had moved position I didn’t feel it, it gives so much anxiety but remember patterns in movements don’t form until around 28 weeks I have never really had a pattern if I don’t think I feel her I lie down for 30 mins ish with some ice cold water and a fizzy drink and she soon starts booting me. Also the more active I am even now so late on it’s difficult to feel her just trust your gut 🩷
Just to give a different perspective I don’t have an anterior placenta but my little one loves kicking way low down and sometimes it feels like they are running themselves along my bladder etc. As long as you are feeling something I wouldn’t worry too much about where (especially as you’ve been checked out). If movement does slow or stop though call up asap
I have an AP and at 22/23 weeks most kicks were really low down in my pelvis. I’m now 26+2 and feel baby all over, but mostly at the extremes of my bump I.e really high or really low, or at the sides. Think, they have to get around the placenta so it’s totally normal! X
Hi, I had anterior placenta as well - and I'd get paranoid quite often! Once I rushed to the hospital when I didn't feel the movement for a while but everything was just fine (he was doing flips during the ultrasound but I didn't feel a thing!) Hang in there!
