Can't feel any movements yet

I'm 20 weeks pregnant and recently had my anatomy scan which showed I have an anterior placenta. Now I'm anxious I won't feel my baby move because of it. If anybody had the same experience, please share in the comments. Thank you. xx

I had an anterior placenta and didn’t feel movements until over 20 weeks, unsure when exactly maybe more like 22-24 weeks

I had an anterior placenta and didn't feel movements until after 20 weeks. And she was a very quiet baby too

I have an anterior placenta and I’ve felt so many strong movements, I’m almost relieved that I have an anterior placenta because without it I wouldn’t be able to cope with the strength of some of these movements! 😂

My first was anterior and second was posterior. I didn’t feel my LG til around 28 weeks with anterior but felt my second around 14 weeks with posterior x

4d scan with anterior placenta.

Had our 4d scan and I can’t cope with the pictures we got this time 🥺 this is baby number 3 (surprise gender) and the best pictures we have had so far with all my pregnancies.

Still find it absolutely crazy that there’s a whole little person inside me 🥹

Lots of movement

Does lots of movement mean anything at all? At least in some of your experiences.
I know they used to say it could be a cause for concern but now they say it’s not a cause for concern unless paired with other worrying things. So I’m not worried about anything.
Just curious if anyone’s baby has suddenly started boogying almost 24/7 suddenly and anything has come about like waters breaking or labour?

This girl had me worried the other day when she stopped moving a bit and now she won’t stop! I’m talking every hour for at least 20-30 minutes she’s rolling and kicking and shoving her head so far down it feels like she’s trying to get out! 🙈😂

5 weeks since c section - belly image

I hate how big my belly still is, from the belly button down it is so wobbly, bloated and big..I didn’t have this with my first c section but second time round I’m left with this huge belly. I can’t fit it any of my clothes and feel so fat and thrumpy.

How can I get rid of it ??

Pre pregnancy weight was 14st 10lb, I went to 17st 3lb and am now 15st 8lb, so I’ve lost some but got more to go. I also have lymphodema so my feet and legs swell bad. Someone told me to get a belly band for my belly however I’ve read good and bad.

I saw a GP yesterday who said from my belly button under it’s all still very tender and I’ve been sent for a scan due to severe pain I’ve got on my right side. On my notes she said the scar was ‘healing well’ so can I do massages around it yet or no?

Leaking fluid

Constantly feeling damp down below which i thought was just heavy discharge ( i have had reoccurring thrush basically the whole pregnancy ) but this morning i’m damp through to my pj shorts

Is that normal for 36 weeks or could my waters be leaking

C section advice

Hey mums , I have a planned c section for next Friday but I was wondering if you went early and got an emergency section, How soon did you go from labour to getting the emergency section?

And if you did get an emergency was everyone rushing about? 🥺

It’s my biggest fear. 😧 had a planned section for my first and it was such a great experience I’m worried this will be different and I don’t get my section 😭
