Freaking out
I know it's early, but I've felt baby move everyday for the last 7 days. But I haven't felt her today, I wasn't too worried at first. Then my daughter wanted me to find baby's heartbeat on the Doppler, which is much easier to find now. But I couldn't find it. So now, of course, I'm losing my mind ? I've seen several posts on here about late miscarriages and that added to my being unable to find the heartbeat and not feeling movement today has me super stressed.
Thanks ladies! ? little stubborn butt just had to scare me for a bit lol
This happened to me yesterday. I always find the heartbeat pretty quick and yesterday I couldn't find it and she wasn't moving. So I drank orange juice, tried to chill out and went to find it again...luckily then I found it and have felt her move since.
But I understand your freak out!!
Well right after my last comment I went to check for her heartbeat again and found it :) and then she kicked a few time. It's was 142 bpm and that makes me feel good since that's about what it was at my ultrasound last week ? thanks ladies!
I never worried when I couldn't find the heartbeat earlier on. But since about 14 weeks I could find it quickly every time, which I only did once or twice a week. This never really happened with my first daughter until I was much further along, so I went to the hospital with her. And she was totally fine. Just being lazy lol
I'm trying not to worry myself enough to go to the hospital because I live in an extremely small town and our ER won't do anything that deals with OB. So the closest place is an hour away. I just wish she would move already.
Sometimes it is very hard to find the baby's heartbeat on the doppler. I was told by my doctor not to purchase one for my home because I'm not trained on how to use it. I see where a lot of nurses discourage you from doing it on your own because sometimes you might not find it. I went to the hospital around 17 weeks and the nurse couldn't find it, but when they did a ultra sound my little pumpkin was okay. So don't worry yourself, because of course stress makes things even worse. I would take it easy and if you really can't wait until your next appointment, then go to ER and make sure everything is okay. At least then you will have a piece of mind about it. Always stay positive :-)
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...
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
I'm going through this right now... Haven't felt baby move since Monday which is very abnormal. I'll call my OB tomorrow if I still don't feel anything
