Does anyone else have an anterior placenta? I didn't really begin to feel the baby move until about week 25ish (I'm 27 weeks now), and even now it's very limited, I still don't feel her move often. I know that because the placenta is up front, instead of in the back where it normally is, it's blocking a lot of movement, and last doctors appointment I was at, her heartrate was 130, which is normal, so I know I shouldn't be too worried but I can go through a whole day with only really feeling her move once, which worries me. Anyone else going through this, too? Or have any advice to helping my nerves?
Re: Anterior Placenta?
I had one with my first child. The doctor was having issues finding the heartbeat up to 28 weeks, but I believe most of the other docs were going from the front and not from the side.
if you are worried throughout the day, you can do your kick counts and you should be able to feel the baby move, even with an anterior placenta.

I'm 30 weeks almost 31 and just started feeling more consistent movement here in the last 3 weeks. I wouldn't worry, but orange juice or milk and Layin on my side and being quiet will sometimes provoke baby girl to get kickin.
BAHAHAHAH I just realized your ticker says 53 weeks pregnant... I almost spit water out of my mouth.
