Curious to know how early some people might feel something. Is the placenta posterior or anterior? Boy or girl?

I’m currently 17 + 3 today and I started feeling little movements about a week ago. My placenta is posterior and I’m having a wee boy! The movements I’m feeling tho are very light, like little pops, I feel like that is a better way to describe it than “flutters” cause when people ask me if I’ve felt flutters, I’m kinda like 🤷♀️🤷♀️😂

I have an anterior placenta and I’m 17w1d and I’ve not felt my baby move yet. I can’t wait until I do! This is my 3rd baby

I thought that! Flutters doesn’t feel accurate to me, that makes me think of butterflies when you’re nervous. I think it’s like fizzy

Second pregnancy
17w2d, and some days I do others I don't. I am very much excited to feel him move more and stronger 💙

I’m 15 tomorrow and I felt baby about 10 days ago with bubbles and yesterday a pop like a kick (2nd pregnancy though and anterior)

How does everyone already know where their placenta is? I wasn’t told at my 12 week scan and I’m sure I didn’t find out where my placenta was until my 20 week scan the first time round

I asked about mine at 10 week private scan then double checked at the 12 week one

I had a private gender scan last week where they told me

ahh thanks! I have my private gender scan on Saturday so I’ll ask then!

I've felt flutters, and last Monday baby was kicking a lot of about an hour but not felt much at all this week. I'm 16+3, second baby

im 17+6 & i’ve been feeling little things since around a week ago!! my placenta is at the back (i can’t remember which is which ahahah) n this weeks his little kicks have gotten stronger!! past 2 nights i’ve felt little pops in my lower abdomen & been getting some ligament pain too because he’s growing it’s so surreal as this is my first baby and we found out his gender at 14+4 weeks !! he wasn’t shy at all 🥳🥳 xxx

amazing! You have a posterior placenta like me. Means we will feel it sooner and maybe more intense than anterior. I haven’t felt anything yet. I’m 15+1 today. I mean I might have but it’s not distinctive enough some times I get popping but then I just think that’s my stomach. I’m not sure. I’m going to find out on Friday what the gender is I can’t wait!
