MW tomorrow, should I bring up her lack of movement?


So I have a mw appt tomorrow because I was in the hospital last week as we thought I was leaking amniotic fluid. I wasn't, thank god! But they did say that if the discharge continued the way it was to give them a call. It has, but I was just going to wait till my appt, which was the 29th, as I didn't feel it was that important. They checked my fluid levels and everything was 100% in working order. But I'm getting a bartholin cyst again. (I just had one last month or so, they're quite painful) So my mw wants to check me out to find out what's causing it, as my STD/STI check was clear, nor do I have a UTI.

Anywho, I don't know if I should mention to her that Livi hasn't moved much today or not. She's usually very, very active. And last night she was kicking so hard I wanted to cry! But then today she only kicked a few times in the morning and then once later one. Is it worth mentioning? They use the Doppler every time, so it's not like they won't notice is something's amiss. But should I give her a heads up anyway?

I'd mention it hun, it can't hurt just to let her know, and if you don't you'll be kicking yourself when you get home.

Lots of luck, hope it goes well.

i'd mention it just to be on the safe side, my little girl has days where she moves loads and then others where she is pretty quiet. I dont think you should notice a pattern of her movements until she is about 28 weeks? am i right?... or am i making things up haha x

Hi hun, I'd mention it too. better to be safe than sorry ifykwim. It may be that your lo is having a growth spurt or has decided to play games with you and make you worry.

Personally I would mention it although she'll probably only say that at 22 weeks bubs is still small enough to kick inwards meaning you wouldn't feel it if that makes sense.. And I'm sure its around 28-30 weeks they start to worry if you notice a change in movement pattern.. But definitely mention it.. Can't hurt to bring it up

it is normal to feel less movement at about 22 weeks though i worried about it and know there have been quite a few posts about it all at about 22 weeks.

I mentioned it to her as she was about to listen to the heart beat, and go figure she puts the gel on my bump and she kicks. It's because she doesn't like medical equipment.
Her heart beat was good, I think she's just growing or something. She's been up in my ribs all day though, which I thought was odd because I didn't think my uterus was that big yet. But I have a small torso, so maybe that's why.
