    Anterior placenta and bubs moving

    I am 13 weeks pg with number two and have an anterior placenta. I was just wondering when I might feel Bub move this time? I felt number 1 at 15w3d.
    When did other mums with an anterior placenta feel thier bubs move?
    TIA xxxxx

    I have an anterior placenta this time round and felt bubs move between 12-15 weeks. The little butterfly movements. It was the same time as with number one and I did not have an anterior placenta. So no difference for me.

    I felt the first flutter at 10.5 weeks, then nothing til about 16 weks I think it was.
    It is not unusual to feel bubs later than you would have otherwise with an anterior placenta.

    I have an anterior placenta and i hardly felt a thing until 20 weeks this time. I think it varies a lot from person to person though.

    I had an anterior placenta with DD3.
    I first felt her about 14-15 weeks.
    It didn;t really affect how early I felt her but more how often...when I had my 20week u/s we could see movement that I couldn't feel because it was cushioned by the placenta.

    I was much the same as JM and RB - nothing really until 15-16 wks.
