I also have an anterior placenta this time. I'm pretty sure the boys both had posterior placentas. It seems like they are more common with girls but it could just be an old wives tale.

who in this DD club DOESNT have an anterior placenta? something about these summer conceived babies? lol It does seem to be REALLY common with girls which is just crazy to me...my first two didnt have anterior and they were still girls but my last 2 did and it seems lots of people getting confirmed girls also have anterior placenta...i swear i read somewhere on here that anterior is more common in boys so this is just crazy lol
Lol well this is my second anterior placenta and I only have boys ;)
It is actually very irritating to me. I'm so frustrating that I barley get to feel him. It is the best part of pregnancy for me

Just popping in... I had posterior placentas with DS and DD1, but anterior with DD2&3. I've also heard it's more common with girls. & I agree, anterior placentas are super annoying!
I don't really believe the old wives tale that gender has anything to do with placenta placement, I think it's just coincidence. I had an anterior placenta with my DS1. This time I have a posterior placenta. It's crazy how much more I feel, and how much earlier it all started. Last time I didn't feel any movement till 21 weeks, this time it was around 14 weeks. Now I realize all that I missed out on the first time around. I'm hoping all the extra movement will make it easier to bond with him.

I thought having an anterior placenta may have been due to sleeping on tummy, my favourite position to sleep, I miss that so much
I still get movements but looking at my notes for DS2 I told my midwife he was very active at this stage. I can't remember exactly what that meant but I would describe this one as just active.
I am starting to see some movements on the outside of my belly now. DH hasn't felt her move yet but it is just a matter of being there at the right time. I think he is looking forward to it as it helps him feel more connected to the pregnancy.
