2nd Trimester

Anterior Placenta mommas come in!

I just found out today that I have an anterior placenta...when did you first feel baby move? When was DH first able to feel baby move? I've been so excited to feel the baby move soon, but now I'm thinking it's going to be awhile.

(I know this question has been asked before, but I tried searching and The Bump didn't cooperate, so sorry for asking the same old question)

  • I was told that i had an anterior placenta at my big 20wk ultrasound. I felt "flutters" around 21wks and the first few kicks around 23wks. I started feeling outside kicks around 24wks.

  • I felt very slight flutters around 17 weeks...convincing kicks at 20 weeks, and DH could feel LO on the outside at 21 weeks.

  • I just posted on this today because I found out this weekend that I have an anterior placenta. I got a lot of great feedback. I would go find the link for you but I have to get off the bump because I need to make dinner Embarrassed But the title of my post was "The Big Reveal & Anterior Placenta" I probably posted it around 8 or 9ish my time (Alaska) so that would most likely be 10 or 11ish your time. Good luck and I am in the same boat!

  • I was told at 15 wks I have one. They said it was perfectly normal. The only thing it affects is if it's still anterior when and if you have to have a c-section. Because when they cut into the uterus, that would cut the placenta also, and the dr would need to get the baby out and cut the cord very quickly so that the baby would not bleed out through the placenta. That said...my mom is a NICU nurse and she said most of the time, anterior placenta will move up to where it's supposed to be by the time of delivery. I'd just insist on it being checked via u/s if you have to have a c/s. I already know I do have to have one, so we're keeping an eye on it. Good luck. :)

  • Thanks for all the responses ladies! And renc9828, I did find your post when I looked again..I must have missed it the first time. It sounds like most of you didn't have to wait too much longer to feel your little ones than others I've talked to! Thanks!

  • I have an anterior placenta and I first felt movement between 20 and 21 weeks.  DH was able to feel kicks about a week later.  I never felt "flutters" exactly, for me it went straight to "nudge" sort of feelings and they were pretty low.  Just in the past week I was able to feel them a little higher (around my belly button).   
  • here's the link to the earlier thread:

    i found out today that i've got one. i've been feeling him for about a week now, and that might be because he's measuring ahead.

  • Mine was at 24weeks.
  • I was diagnosed with an anterior placenta at my NT Scan.  I've been feeling movement for a little over a week.  I'm a second time mommy, so I don't know if that's why I am feeling movement so early with an anterior placenta.
