I'm suddenly super anxious. I woke up this morning and realized it had been too long since I felt baby move. Maybe it's just jitters before our first ultrasound tomorrow, but it's really freaking me out. I've tried all the usual things to wake them up, but nothing's worked so far. There's no real reason I should be worried, but that's never stopped me before. Come on, lazy baby...
@steph11 Yeah I'll have to keep that in mind. I think it has to do with positioning because I found my son's at around this time. When the midwife checked with a doppler a few weeks ago, the heartbeat was strong and easy to find so I'm just reminding myself of that
don't get disappointed if you don't hear much with a stethoscope. it's super hard to do on a full term baby, and before I think like 23 weeks it's very unlikely to find. I couldn't find sadies heartbeat until I was like 33 weeks when I was sure which part of baby I was messing with
@edomke Thank you. That's what I've been trying to reassure myself. And I've always had the feeling that this was going to be a very small baby so maybe they just have plenty of room.
@klove2016 I'll look into it. I'm usually not nervous like this, except right before ultrasounds. My first ever (3 years ago) showed that I was having a miscarriage so I may just have some leftover anxiety. A doppler may be useful for days like this. But be careful using it a lot, they haven't done a ton of research on the effect of the use of sound waves on fetuses, despite their prominent use. But I totally don't mean to preach :) Thank you!
I would, but I don't love the idea of excessive sound waves going through my waters and I know I would use it obsessively. Plus, I'm getting an ultrasound in the morning anyway. But maybe I could go use my mother in law's stethoscope... Thanks for the inspiration @alyen2 :)
I agree with @alyen2 you should order a fetal Doppler. If I didn't have mine, I'd be a nervous wreck all day everyday. Lol I'm 16 weeks yesterday and haven't even really felt flutters I don't think. They're only $40 on Amazon and give you a piece of mind. Plus it's so amazing being able to hear the heart beat whenever you want
You are still really early. It could be the way baby is positioned so you can't feel it and they can for sure have lazy days 😀
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Please tell me it's a scam!!!. I have a beautiful new baby cotbet which is to big for me. I put it up on gumtree and this was the email I got this morning 🤔🤔🤔
Today just may be my lucky day you guys let me hurry up with this baby sprinkle and get to that hospital they coming they coming I'm dying I think it's real this time frfr my pelvic bone feels like it's having contractions
Hey I’m 26 with two children #myfirstpost
Okay I’ll be real and explained why I joined, I didn’t know I could be looked up or anyone would actually see this post, I was informed someone I know has been stealing pics and I came to look and see what’s going on if any of mine were on there or anyone else I knew. I just typed until it let me post since it was required before I could look around on the app.
yeah it's not like that with a stethoscope. I love to play with mine, when I was pregnant I'd freak when I couldn't find it even though I could constantly feel her
