Answer: Hi. Blood from the mother passes through the placenta, filtering oxygen, glucose and other nutrients to your baby via the umbilical cord. The placenta also filters out substances that could be harmful to your baby and removes carbon dioxide and waste products from your baby’s blood. Anterior placenta is placement of placenta on front wall of uterus that means on your tummy side. In anterior placenta if you touch your tummy to feel yiur baby you would instead feel your placents. But its not a problem. With anterior placenta its just that you would feel the kicks a but late. Mainly placenta places it self on back or front wall of uterus. When its on back wall its posterior placenta and when in front its anterior. Best position for placenta is posterior. When its anterior a to be mom feels the kicks bit late and can feel the kicks light they never geg hitted too hard because of placenta.
