@emkasting, thank you! and you're so right about the positive thinking. I try not to dwell on that stuff because I know too well how easily things can turn south due to my work so I'm not naive about it. I just trust that everything is in gods hands and that I'll do as much as I can in my power to keep him healthy. getting so close! 👐👐👐

Oh no..I'm so sorry to hear that, I hope she is doing okay, or at least as well as she could be doing under the circumstances. I can't even imagine. But I worried about all sorts of things during my pregnancy, birth complications and stillbirth being at the top of my list. I was so anxious about it that I had to start seeing a psychiatrist while pregnant just to ease my fears a little bit. Worrying is normal of course but too much stress can be hard on your baby so try to relax as much as you can. Keep in mind that your body is literally made to carry and birth a baby, and have faith that everything will be okay. Just keep eating right and taking care of yourself and good things will follow. I know the scariest thing about stillbirth at least for me is that it can happen in completely normal & healthy pregnancies, but force yourself to think positive instead of focusing on that. I had to do the same. Once you have your baby and you hear that first cry it's amazing to feel those fears melt away. Just stay focused on the finish line, girl. Everything will be okay. Please send your friend my condolences for her loss. But remember that just because it happened to her that doesn't mean it will happen to you ❤️

@emkasting, you're right. and of course he starts to move a bit more so he mist have changed position. a coworker of mines cousin delivered her twins yesterday and both were stillborn. I just can't stop thinking about it :(

Keep in mind that baby may be moving less because he or she is running out of room so that could be why you're not feeling as strong of movements. That or baby could be facing your spine and therefore muffling the movements
