Cant believe 12 weeks to go till due date, ok its still draggin but still lol, everyone keeps tellin me to make the most of it cos ill miss bein pregnant and i know i did when i had Kai so thats just what im gonna try and do for the next 12 weeks!

I have midwife today, its been 4 weeks since i last seen her but it onlt seems 5 mins ago, dont make sense as to why its draggin lol!

sophie

Seen my midwife yest, and i asked her about the kick chart and when i should start counting etc, and she told me they had stoped doin that now and that i should just know if i feel somthing wrong then not to hesitate and ring mat ward!

Has anyone else been told this?
She said that all babies and pregnancies are different and that i should notice a pattern with babe and if it changes that when i ring??

Wohooo to you 28 weeks chick. Sorry didn't check out most of the board yesterday.

I was asked by MW about the 10 kicks although at same time she said to me if your baby is more active when you lie in bed at night and she stops doing that then use instincts and let us know .... if that makes sense.

sophie

Thats ok hun.

Ive noticed a real pattern with baby, she has a really quiet day where i worry myself sick then shes none stop after that so i guess if it changes i ring then, also i always have my doppler!

Not long now!

mickey

they told me, I should feel baby at least 12 times within 24 hours

Wobbles

12 is high - its defo 10!

Caitlin is always active when i go to bed at night. She told me to put my doppler away noticing how many and when she moves was more important x

mickey

or was it ten times?

I can't remember, but somewhat around there.

sophie

Yeah Rio is really active at night when in bed last night she was too active lol.
They dont like us to have these dopplers do they? I havent told my midwife.
I would def ring if i was worried anyway i would never rely completely on my doppler, or just me thinkin its all ok!
I def have at least 10 moves a day so thats good, i just worry cos shes not as active as Kai but then she could get more active as the time goes by, its still earlyish days i spose!

lol Mickey

Sophie hmm dunno mine just said its good for some causes too much panic for others & sometimes its the digi ones with heart rate display that cause more worry than those without. I think the early trying t hey are like hmmm best let them (though I had to show mine where it was lol) and in later stages its the movements that are more important basiclly not to reply on it that everything is fine just use it occasionally coz its nice to use if you use it with right mind if you get me.

I had my bloods took as well on tues and last night when i got in from work i had a msg to ring my docs, so i did and it turns out im anemic (sp) thought i was.
How quick was that though next day never known that!
I shall have to start eatin things with iron.
