Hey ladies, hope you’re all ok!!
I was just wondering when you were properly and consistently feeling your baby kick?
I have an anterior placenta and it’s doing my head in, some days I feel her loads, other days not so much, but it feels like more of a heart beat than a kick if that makes sense?
Thanks all xxx

I’m the same, I feel him move and i saw my midwife today. She said by around 28 weeks I should start to notice a pattern to his movements / kicks
Some days it feels like a right kick, other times it does feel like a heart beat xx

it’s just worrying isn’t it!! Yeah I went to triage today to check but all is ok xx

it is, I had to go a few weeks ago as I didn’t feel him move for 24 hours, they weren’t concerned but checked him anyway and if your ever worried definitely go get checked but give it a few more weeks and we should start to feel a pattern to movements! I’m currently 26 weeks xx

Same for me, I’m 22+3 weeks this week and I feel like I keep feeling a pulse/spasm in my stomach towards the side of my belly button, not even sure if that’s him moving or not? 🤣💙

babe no joke, this is literally exactly what I’m feeling!!! It’s horrible and so worrying, but every time I have a scan she’s moving about, yawning, punching me the lot, I just can’t bloody feel it :( xx

I am the same - 23 weeks here, not feeling kicks, but there is a bit of fluttering and sometimes I feel heart beat! But not proper movements

I've got anterior placenta too, and the movements were quite subtle, but this past few days(I'm nearly 26 weeks)...omg the baby is going for it 🫣😂 jumping out both of my sides, moving really low down, scratching at my cervix 🤢 and kicking me in the butt 🤣
This is baby #2 so I know what is/isn't baby on my own body, but I know everyone is different. The regular movements will come 🫶🏼

My goodness this is me also. I have anterior and am 23 weeks. Sometimes it feels like a pulse other times a gurgle swish. Fingers crossed you get your kicks soon!

Same here, 23 weeks with anterior placenta. But I have been feeling hiccups right down in my crotch! It’s so anxiety inducing though isn’t it when you don’t feel anything for a while 😳
