Baby movements

I'm definitely getting more anxious about it on this home stretch as I just want her here safe and sound d.

@Alana yes I think that's me I just want him here and healthy now it's getting so close! Xx

I’m 32 weeks today and currently on my 3rd admission for reduced movements. Have two days of great movements and then nothing. Driving me bonkers slowly!

@Sam oh Sam 🥺 hope everything is good! It's such a worry! Xx

I’m the same and same as you! Baby has quiet periods I get worried but still moving and then all of a sudden burst of energy!

Same here, was so happy in 2nd tri and now I feel like overthinking things too as we get closer 🙈 have called triage about 2 worries so far in 3rd tri (so in past 3 weeks) but was told that's a lot of calls and asked if I'm anxious. So now I'm worried about calling for anything!

@Shiv never be anxious to call! I know the feeling as I've yet to even call, but was ready this morning cause I couldn't sleep during the night overthinking about his movements! Been feeling him regularly today, but soon as it stops I feel like I'm like how long has that been! My friend is a midwife and she always tells me they would rather you called if concerned and it's nothing, don't ever think you are wasting time! I should really take my own advice too 🙈 roll on December till we meet the baby's causing us this worry, it will be his bedtime story what he put me thru 🤣 xx

Haha yeah it's crazy, I didnt mind calling before but now they've said they think I'm anxious and are concerned it's made me feel like I don't want to call! And the reason I previously called was cause they said call for anything and we would rather that. So super confused lol by the mixed messaging

Regardless if it's cause you are anxious, they should be able to put you at ease not questioning you. I wouldn't let me put you off at the end of the day you only have your wee ones health as priority they can't blame you for wanting to make sure everything is okay x

Thankfully everything is fine and I’m being supported by my consultant and other staff I meet. It is such a worry. If I wasn’t already grey I’d be heading that way! Xx

@Sam glad everything is okay 🥰 they are testing us before they are even born lol xx

Haha I'm getting greys but they defo started after marriage 🤣

I’ve been really anxious about it the past week 😣 today I thought I’d write down when he moved, I found it actually really helped me as I thought I’d had a quiet day but when I looked at the notes he’d moved a lot more often than I’d remembered x

@Lauren aww that is a good idea! I think I might do that, I'm just worried I get obsessive over it 🤣 this pregnancy I seem to fixate on things too 🙈 the joys haha xx

Yes that’s why I didn’t do it before 🙈 i have been obsessive about things too - pregnancy has made me really anxious but I’m trying to work on it before the baby arrives to prepare for post partum in case I get super anxious then 🥲

Awww it's such hard going! I can deal with the physical part, the mental part is so much harder and I think it cause we just want them to be healthy and then we worry about once they are here! Easier said than done but I think we need to give ourselves a wee break, we are doing amazing 😍 I'm a anxious wee soul at the best of times but I have to say I've had some of the happiest times pregnant too! Just such a rollercoaster lol xx

Aw yeah I feel the same! Trying to enjoy the last bit! X

It’s the same for me. Some days very active and moving regularly. Other days moving but not as strong and not as frequent. Stressful 🥲
