Pregnant after IF

Half baked today! :)

Still seems so unreal! (even with the nursery begining to take shape) 20 weeks! holy cow!

Side note -- I have an anterior placenta. I have been feeling the baby now since about 17 weeks, but somedays I feel her more than others. Right now, I feel her 4-5 times during the day and a lot more at night. At what point did you start feeling baby constantly? 24 weeks?

  • I'm so jealous that you're feeling her!  I have an anterior placenta also and haven't felt anything.  I can't wait.

  • congrats on a great milestone!

    i have 2 babies, and baby a has an anterior placenta. for a while i could only feel baby b consistently, but then one day i felt baby a much more strongly. now i feel a waaaay more than b - her kicks are more powerful (at least i think, they are both head down so i could be mixing up whose kicks are whose). it took until the mid 20 weeks to feel them both constantly.

  • How in the heck are you half baked??? I remember gearing up for your IVF and BFP. How unreal!!!

    Congrats on making it here hun :)

    As for movement: I have an anterior placenta too. I've felt a hint here and there (once every few days) since my 20th week, until today. Today is the first time I've felt him a majority of the day. We'll see if that happens again tomorrow.

  • Congrats!!

     Sorry, I don't know about movement.  I am not sure I have felt him/her yet, but I do have a doppler that I use a couple times a week, which is reassuring.

    Baby N conceived after 1 miscarriage and more than 2 years of TTC. Diagnosis was low sperm count. We found success after 3 months of anastrozole to increase DH's testosterone and one IUI.

  • Congrats on being halfway there! I have an anterior placenta too and I'm not feeling anything consistent yet either, just random movements here and there. I can't wait until I can feel more movement!
