Anterior placenta?

Anyone have an anterior placenta before? This is my 4th baby, but my first with the anterior placenta. Took forever to feel him lol. Ive read that women experience more back labor than anything. Would anyone be able to tell me if they noticed anything different about labor?

First time with an anterior placenta in my current second pregnancy, haven’t gotten to experience labor with an anterior placenta yet!

I had an anterior placenta in my last pregnancy. The only thing it affected was that it was in the way during my 20 week scan which made it take longer to get all the images, and I noticed less movement than I am experiencing with my current pregnancy because the placenta is kind of in the way. It’s not that the baby was actually moving less, it’s just a little harder to feel so I would have to take time to sit and count kicks each day toward the end. Baby was fine though and it didn’t affect my labor and delivery at all.

I have an anterior placenta and I will say everyone is different because I can definitely feel my baby as much as I did the first I just don’t see the movement of that makes since. I do have a lot my back pain this go round as for labor I don’t give birth till November and I pray it goes as smoothly as the first one did .

My 1st anterior placenta 3rd baby I felt this baby about 18 weeks. Sooner than my 1st two. But I am 31 weeks and having hip and back pain. So idk if that has anything to do with it.

Car seats

What the fuck is that.
Looks like no seat belt, just some bar thing, and a kid that’s small enough to be rear facing in a forward only car seat?? Someone tell me there’s more to this and it’s not as crazy as it looks

Plane seat purchase

Why are we having to pay extra for seats?! I really can't afford to add any more on to the expense. So I'm going to check in, and hope we are next to each other. We are a family of 5, 2 adults and 3 children.
How likely is it that we will be split - and staff care enough to give seats together? Please let me know if this has happened to anyone. I really can't be adding £300 more just for tickets.

Breastfeeding or screaming - no in between

When it comes to our late afternoon and evening feeds, we seem to hit the same problem; he just won’t unlatch! Baby boy is 5 weeks and will just chew on my nipple, I assume to soothe, and if I ever try to take him off he screams. He’ll even be falling asleep and still hates it, and then won’t sleep at all!

Any one experienced something similar and know how to work around this? I’m sore and need a small bit of my evenings back!

Sleep training tips

Can anyone share how you sleep trained your babies without letting them cry it out? My LO is currently almost 5 months but absolutely refuses to fall asleep on his crib on his own.

Period has come back!

To my surprise my period came back today!😭 Little bit concerned as I’m only 8 weeks post c-section and my baby is breastfed other than 2 feeds at 8pm and 12pm. Has anyone else got their period back yet? I was expecting another good few months!

Snoring

How do I stop a man snoring so I can actually sleep for once please. If he goes to sleep first I am fucked essentially. I’m so fed up I’m exhausted. He’s so loud it’s concerning but the doctor just keeps saying take antihistamines 😭😭😭 yeah we’ve tried them dumb nose strips and all that stuff. Im also pregnant so the exhaustion is just hitting extra hard, I can’t cope with my toddler on one hour of sleep again after he’s left for work😭
