Hey ya'll. Last night I had a bit of a scare. My kids were wrestling around and I got kicked in my belly. I'm 21 weeks today. I called my doc and she said that I should monitor it and doesn't think it caused any damage to the placenta or the baby. Well, this morning I had spotting and called my doc and she advised me to go to the hospital and I did immediately. There they listened to the heart beat and everything looked ok. What I'm having a problem with is the way the doctor measured the fundal height. She took her hand (in a karate chop position) and started pushing it in until she felt the placenta. It was kinda hard and I wasn't even completely lying down. Is that normal? I looked it up and they don't say that's how it's done. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. I've had a horrible couple of days and it doesn't seem to get better. I'm so worried about something hurting/damaging the baby

Thank you, it does. I appreciate you letting me know. I think my nerves have been on overdrive these past few days and I'm overthinking it.

That's how they've always checked my fundal height. If you're worried about her method, it's not harmful to you or baby. Uncomfortable maybe, but baby is pretty well protected. Hope this helps.

Starting TWW. Anyone else?

I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.

leahbeth I'm so sorry :( hopefully your cycle continues and you get another shot next month.

My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️

babybump_user My heart hurts for you. I would sue the s*** out of those doctors.
babybump_user So sad and heartbreaking. Brought tears to my eyes. No mother should lose her child so young
