Who else still can't feel baby?

I'm 18 weeks with an anterior placenta.  I also was overweight when we got our BFP, so I know I have longer to wait than some before I can feel baby.  Who else is still waiting with me?

    19 weeks here also and thought maybe I've felt something once or twice but it was so faint, I can't say for sure. I'm patiently waiting as well!

    With my first I had an anterior placenta and I didn't feel flutters until 24 weeks and no real kicks or movement DH could feel from the outside until 30ish weeks. I know it's a bummer :( hang in there, you'll be able to feel soon!!!

    I have felt flutters off and on for a couple of weeks, but nothing consistent. I have an anterior placenta as well.

    I'm 20 weeks tomorrow with an anterior placenta too. I also haven't felt baby yet. Gas bubbles that could maybe, possibly have been baby....but I have no idea.

    This is the second pregnancy with a an anterior placenta...the first one I only felt flutters starting at 20+ weeks.

    This pregnancy, I have been feeling definite flutters on and off for a few weeks (I am 19.5 weeks), but apparently this kid is a bruiser because the sonogram chick said she was surprised I felt them with the placement of the placenta.

    Same here...19 weeks and have MAYBE felt flutters. The tech at my A/S scan today was surprised I couldn't feel all the kicks he was giving me. Hopefully soon!!

    I just had my a/s on Tuesday. I had only felt occasional flutters and ask the tech if I had an anterior placenta. She said its "posterior and far from the cervix". So I am thinking it has more to due with the extra weight I am carrying. Hopefully the kicks will be felt soon!

    22w and still nothing really that I couldn't count off as gas bubbles. So maybe but I would say nope.

    Ill be 19 weeks on Monday. Had some
    infrequent fluttering but nothing crazy or consistent. I always took it as gas but OB said its more than likely baby flipping around. I'm still waiting for that definite first KICK.

    I haven't felt anything either. I don't know where my placenta is, at 12 weeks it was at the bottom.

    I am 19w/1d and think I may have felt flutters but I'm not sure. I wasn't told that I have anterior placenta, so I'm hoping I start feeling soon :)

    19 weeks with an anterior placenta as well. I'm blessed with excessive gas (so fun)...so not sure that what I am feeling is baby or gas...

    Hopefully soon!

    anterior placenta and 20+6; just started feeling semi regular-barely-there flutters this week, but nothing I couldnt also write off to gas.  Overweight as well.  Doc says may take as long as 23-24 weeks before I feel anything definite.  Glad we're all not the only ones!!

    I thought I was feeling movement and then my EDD got pushed back and now I keep wondering if I am too early and just making it up in my head. I do feel something though. I suppose it could be gas, if gas bubbles feel different when you're pregnant. I started occasionally feeling like something is poking me from the inside about 2 weeks ago, and now I feel it for more extended periods and basically daily. I feel like it should be movement but I second guess myself a lot.

    21 weeks with anterior placenta, felt a few flips and kicks but nothing obvious. I'm not expecting more for some time because of the way the placenta is sitting

    I'll be 20 weeks tomorrow I've felt maybe baby thumps but not all the time just a few times up to now. I don't know how my placenta is sitting so maybe I'll start feeling more thumps. I don't feel it often tho maybe here and there.

    I am 20 weeks as of yesterday, I felt the first movement on Christmas and he was moving quite a bit last night. You will definitely know it when you feel it, I didn't know what I was waiting for but now I definitely do. It will come ladies don't worry :)

    I'm a FTM, obese, and anterior placenta, 21w5d. I recently started feeling small faint "thumps" and my belly does twitch visibly sometimes, but I still second guess it. I don't always feel something when the tummy twitches... Don't know if that is normal or not. Anyway, I believe that I am feeling movement, but it isn't often yet and is faint.

    18 weeks and I think I feel flutters at night while I'm laying down but nothing consistent. I'm also obese so I figure it will be a whirl before I really feel substantial movements.

    Almost 18 weeks, tall and thin pre-pregnancy, "normal" placenta, and I've felt nothing so far! We've seen Baby numerous times on ultrasound and he kicks and wiggles all the time, so I too am in the waiting game on when I'll actually feel it!

    I am 21 weeks with an anterior placenta... I feel flutters every once in a while. It's usually in the evening while I'm laying down.

    I'll be 19 weeks on Tuesday. I'm little chubby and expected I wouldn't feel anything too early on, but thought I'd feel definite movement by now. I've felt s strange flutter or two, but no real movement yet.

    I was just gonna post about this... I am 20wks, still don't know if some of the feelings I feel in my lower tummy are baby or just my tummy... I am overweight, and freak out that I still haven't felt her, but I guess I am not the only one.

    20 weeks tomorrow with anterior placenta...possible flutters but not for sure. She is always moving like crazy on u/s and using the placenta as a punching bag but no clear kicks...
