I'm Currently Feeling: | Is this normal? I have travelled to see our families with DH. Since I came here I have spotted a couple of times which I am sure it's because I have been more active than back at home and I had a transvaginal ultrasound to check if my cervix was closed so they could give me the green light to travel so it was ok. Doctor told me that as long it was brown, that I shouldn't worry. So I am not worried abut that as I checked the baby a day before coming here and baby was amazing.
Since I have arrived, I have been a nervous wreck. Negative thoughts kicked me in as I had some cramps and spotting. But now it is ok. I am sure I am more active than before and this is whats causing it. I went to a midwife and she checked the baby heartbeat and we found it, it was amazing.
The thing is that:
I am not feeling much movements. I know I am still early, but back home I used to feel them more than here. Maybe its because I am not sitting down and waiting to feel somethikng? Maybe because I am always busy? Or maybe is facing inside?? I am a crazy girl, with a pregnant brain going crazy!
Inputs please? |

I'm Currently Feeling: | The same thing has happened to me the last few days baby has been more quiet than normal and had very small spotting last night (if you read my thread you will get the full story) but in short I had a UTI this can cause spotting. Did your midwife check your urine? If so and you heard the heartbeat then all sounds well. x |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Sounds like you are busy, and I noticed a lot less movements on my more active days than days I spent at home. It could also be that your LO has moved into a position where it is harder for you to feel the movements (it is still pretty early for you to feel consistent movement--that doesn't usually happen until 24 weeks or so). |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I'm sure all is fine hun, and bubs has prob just moved where you cannot feel them as much. Also it is still quite early days to feel really regular movements, and as you said you have been more active, which seems to send them to sleep mostly! lol
If you are really worried then please go and see a doctor, at least to put your mind at rest, as worrying too much is not good for you ar baby.

I'm Currently Feeling: | I feel less movement now than I did 2 1/2 weeks ago. I don't know why, I just do. Probably the position of the baby |
