I also was told at my 20 week appointment that I have an anterior placenta and I’ve felt her but there are days at a time where I don’t feel her as strongly as others so that worries me. Also my husband can’t feel her yet which is frustrating but hopefully he will in the 3rd trimester. I will be 26 weeks tomorrow.

I was told that I have anterior placenta as well but I’ve been feeling my baby move since 18 weeks I feel her kicking on my bottom part though

I'm 27w today.. I think I started feeling her at about 25w.. some days I feel her more, sometimes less. Usually before bed it's stronger.
It will come just won't probably be as strong as others have it I guess.. maybe in the end it will be nicer for us that way?

I'm 23 weeks, I was able to feel baby around 22 weeks. It's weird, but I can only really feel it once I'm lying down.

Have you had your 20 week anatomy scan yet? They had to have her unravel herself to get a good look and seeing her move on the screen + paying attention to what I felt at the same time is how I knew I was feeling her. Started out with a “I’m about to shit” feeling but now I feel kicks when I lay down

Either way yes totally normal mama, just check in with your doctor and as long as you’re getting a heartbeat at the apt you’re good to go.

same!!!

I’m having twins one has a posterior placenta and the other has an anterior. I feel my posterior babe ALL THE TIME. But I still don’t know that I’m feeling my anterior babe at all. It scares me too! 😩 I’ll be 24 weeks Sunday!

Im 23 weeks, I started to feel her squirming mostly at around 21 weeks when I just lounged around, now I can feel her kick every now and then but it’s definitely normal to have a delay in feeling the baby with an anterior placenta. My friend was one of the lucky ones who started to feel him kick at 18 weeks 😭

Me too girl!

You guys made me feel so much better 🥹

Just want to sleep again! 🫩

I wake up around 8.30am, have some cereal, meditate/pray for a bit, make a cuppa and then by 10am I’m tired again and could easily nap. My iron levels have been checked and were fine. Is it just me or is anyone else feeling like this? I’m currently 35 weeks pregnant 👀

Possible blood clot on the lung /VQ scan

Has anyone had a VQ scan for possible blood clots. As I need to have to have one and concerned due to the radiation and possible risk of baby having childhood cancer.

Baby girl names

Love pretty shorter names such as Millie, Gracie, Lottie. My husband only likes Millie and I’m struggling to find anything else he likes! However I’m not 100% on Millie.

Love Lilly, Maisie, Isabelle, Tilly but sadly can’t use these sadly.

We have a little boy called Oliver (Ollie).

Middle name will be Rae.

Any ideas?🙈

Review at 36 weeks

Has anyone had An anesthesia review at 36 weeks?
What is this for as I never had this with my first?
I am being scanned every 3 weeks as my first was small and now my second is measuring small.

Anyone else still feeling really good

If I hadn’t of had a scan I wouldn’t believe I was pregnant. I was tired with sore boobs and this is still the case but no where near as much. I feel so good. I am incredibly bloated though but I can deal with that. My first pregnancy I suffered with dizziness really bad so this is a pleasant change.

Princess birthday party

My child will be turning 5 over the summer and they’ve asked for a princess party but keep changing their mind on which princess they’d like to most their party so have said I can choose 🙈 which princess would your child have chosen at a similar age or if you’ve been to a few princess parties which one was best?
