Baby movement

Hi I was wondering if anyone could help me! I’m pregnant with my second baby (16 weeks) and by this time I was feeling kicks but I have found out I have a anterior placenta and I was wondering if anyone else could tell me when they felt kicks as this is completely different from my last!

Congrats! I'm 18 weeks with an anterior and I can feel kicks everyday, started around three days ago! Everyone is different though I had an anterior with my first and also felt kicks from 18 weeks but some don't until 20+ weeks x

I had an anterior with my first and felt kicks from 16 weeks but not super consistent for a long while. I have an anterior this time too annoyingly and I’m 16 weeks on Monday and haven’t felt anything yet.

I’ve had an anterior placenta with all 4 of my kids and this pregnancy is the only one I’ve not felt movement by 15 weeks. I think I’ve just been lucky the other 3 times x

Will I be induced if I keep having episodes of reduced movements?

I’m currently 36+5 and have been in 4 times so far with reduced movements. I have low PAPP-A so have been advised to keep an eye on movements but now that I’m getting closer to term I’m worried about being induced. This is my second baby and with my first I went naturally at 39 weeks, so an induction scares me! Obviously I want what’s best for the baby but I feel like I’m talking myself out of going into triage again just incase they suggest an induction! Has anyone else experienced an induction due to reduced movements?

Hello everyone. I have a son who was born April 5, 2024... And I just found out that I am pregnant with baby number 2, but little bean is also due in April 2027. For those of you that have kids born in the same month, how do you handle or prepare for this?

42 weekers only please

I am 42 +1 today. I still am measured at 1cm
and 50% effaced. Everything looked great on scans. I can’t remember with my previous pregnancies how dilated I was before birth. How dilated were you before active labor?

Baby head down and engaged

This is my second pregnancy and I’m 37+2 (due 5th Oct). I got told at my midwife appointment baby is engaged. Can this mean labour could come soon?

Referred to fetal medicine

Looking for some similar stories please. I’m 26+2 weeks and I’ve been having growth scans every 2 weeks because the baby is measuring small (especially her head). Following my growth scan today, the fetal medicine unit have called asking me to go in for a specialist scan. The woman scared the life out of me on the phone saying it could be chromosome issues etc. has anyone had any experience with this?
