Lady..I have an anterior placenta too and this is my 3rd. I have been feeling consistent movement through the day for about 3 days now..before that it was every couple days and really not much. It really does make a difference.

Ah glad someone else does! I've just hit the 19 weeks mark so maybe a few more days I will start feeling more. I have had some goings on in my tummy but it's hard to tell what is what! I feel like bub has grown a lot in the last week as my tummy is getting bigger, well I guess the bigger he gets the more I will feel :happydance:
 
Oh sisterrose i'm loving that you can feel on the outside! I can't wait!
 
I have a high anterior placenta, so I have been missing out on a lot of movements since the uterus started making its way upwards. I still feel rolls and the kicks to my bladder though.
 
Seems it's quite a common thing to have Maze, it sucks but as long as it's healthy and keeping bub well then it has to do! The kicks and punches will have to wait!
 
My love felt ours last night. Normally when he touches my belly, she? gets really still, but he put his hand near my belly button and I felt a big THUMP. I kind of looked at him and played it cool..."Did you feel that?" And he said he did, but he thought it was just my belly. Uh, sir, there's a baby in there, my belly doesn't normally just thump your hand. :-)

Unfortunately, still not many kicks yet. Very, very occasionally, but I'm always feeling rolls and flips. Makes me wonder if I have an anterior placenta too.
 
I have an anterior placenta and I've been feeling movements since about 13 weeks!
 
I think I am starting to feel it more. Lots of bubbles? Anyways I am still "younger" than y'all so in not noticing my bump being lopsided when I wake but I have been sleeping on my left for awhile too.
 
Maze could you please change my EDD, my new date is 31st of oct. Thank you :)

I think my placenta may be low lying. When i went to see the midwife last wednesday, it took her such a long time to find the baby's heartbeat. When she did she had the doppler really low and pushed in quite hard. When i asked her she said baby was lying low and hiding behind the placenta. I will soon find out at my scan.

Congrats to all who've had scans and know baby's gender.
 
My tiredness is starting to lift now and I have had no nausea for about a week.
 
I'm really tired still. I struggle to sleep properly in the week, often waking up at 3/4am and can't get back to sleep - think work is stressing me out, can't wait for maternity leave to start! Then at the weekend can't keep my eyes open. Today I got up at 9, went back to bed at 12.30 and didn't wake up again until 3. No doubt I'll be back in bed at 9 tonight!
 
Warning! Lots of "I"s coming up in this post.

I don't feel tired, but god, I feel lazy. I'm fine laying in bed all day, but as soon as I get up to get something to drink or use the bathroom, I feel so drained.

I've thought about quitting my job so, so many times. I'm overworked, underpaid, and under valued. My OH hates how they treat me and we work for the same company!

I've also been struck with major depression and anxiety. I get the feeling that my world is falling down around me and pinning me down. Please tell me I'm not the only one. Its probably the worst feeling in the world and all I can do is lay in bed and cry for hours about nothing in particular.
 
Big :hugs: girlinboots. I feel crap about my job, but I'm happy at home. Maybe speak to your dr as you don't want to end up with post natal depression after baby is here. Do you think your job is making you feel like this? Or do you think you might be depressed? xxxx
 
I think it's a little bit of both. I feel ok enough most the time, but it just seems like one little thing, even getting a minor unexpected bill in the mail can just shut me down for the night. I'll discuss it with my doctor, if we can prevent a downward spiral before my hormones tank after giving birth, then I definitely want to.

I'm planning to find somewhere else to work after baby's here. I've been employed here for 4 years and it's something new every day. They act like they have no idea how to run a business. I'm a cake decorator at WalMart, for pete's sake! I shouldn't go home in tears every weekend. Sheesh.

I think another part is that I'm just emotionally exhausted, honestly. I need a break :-(
 
Def speak to your dr but it is prob just hormones and you'll hopefully start to feel better soon. I'm like that with my work, so you're not alone there! When I'm feeling down I try to get some exercise or plan baby things to cheer me up. Really hope you start to feel better soon hun, make sure you look after number 1 and try to put work out of your mind. xxx
 
Sorry girlnboots :hugs: I'd definitely talk to your doc, nip it in the bud.
I hope it gets better for you. Just try to make it as long as you can, but definitely put your health and well being 1st. No job is worth risking that!
 
One thing that makes me very, very happy is our ultrasound tomorrow! :-)

I hadn't felt baby move at all today, and something just felt...different. I broke out the doppler and after 10 long, long minutes, I found her about 4 inches above where she normally is, next to my belly button where there's a lot more cushion to block the movement. Kid's already giving it's momma a heart attack and it's not even born yet!
 
Im sorry you are going through this Grinnboots. With the other girls on this one though. It's more than likely the hormones but I would talk to your dr still.
 
Congrats on team :blue:, Lownth! :happydance:

Our name is Liam Van, Mama Lion. Do you and your OH have any name ideas yet? :D

Aww, girlnboots. Depression is no fun. I've had an ongoing battle with clinical depression for several years now, and I've also had to talk to my doctor about what I can do to best prevent PPD. I think that talking to your doctor is a very smart idea and I hope that you start feeling better soon. :hugs:

Sorry it's been a while since I've posted, we spent the weekend with DF's parents. We had fun though and found lots of cute baby clothes.
