Braxton hicks and little to no fetal movement

I have very mild braxton hicks but my baby girl hasnt moved since yesterday. Shes normally very active and through out the day she will usually kick or move around which is reassuring that things are fine. I’ve been to the hospital twice regarding reduced fetal movements and every time I went baby started moving and showed a strong heart beat. My husband thinks Im worrying too much and it could be baby sleeping or having a lazy day. But this is the second day. I’m worried that the hospital will think I’m a crazy lady for just coming in every other week and being paranoid. Does Braxton Hicks mean baby is moving and is okay? Or are they two separate things? Im almost 36 weeks.

Have you tried drinking lots of ice cold water? That’s what gets my baby moving again!😂 sorry not sure in regards to the Brixton hicks!

You should definitely just go in. I have been in loads as well as my baby just has extremely quiet days here and there. However I always think- well what if I don’t go in and it’s a time I should have? Just go!

never be worried about going up. ive been up 4 times so far since being pregnant and every time they’ve said even if the same was to happen the next day to go in again and again. you know best xxx

Try to lay down and have something sweet. But if you are worried go and get checked out as it's better safe then sorry. And they won't think anything of you, it's their job and they are happy to check you 🥰

Ring triage right away! Never too silly to just get them to check it out. Movements shouldn't be less than normal. Better to be safe than sorry! X

I think you should call triage and go in. I went in yesterday at 40w and it’s better to be safe. Babies do not move less the more pregnant you get and movement should be regular throughout!!! Good luck x

I haven't read past the first sentence. Call triage!! She hasn't moved since yesterday... definately call!

Call triage please. Any movement that isnt her norm needs to be checked 💖

My doctor says to drink something sugary and put your hands on your belly! When I lean back (like they have you do when they take ultrasound) my baby also moves then too!

Just ring up, they’ll tell you what to do. At this stage, there’s no such thing as “worrying too much”. Just get yourself reassured!! Xx

Last time I went in for reduced movements which was just a change in pattern the next morning after a quiet night, not no movements like you’re experiencing, three midwives told me off for not coming in sooner. Go to triage straight away! You’re never being silly and it’s 100% better safe than sorry

I went in for reduced movement twice In two weeks, they give me a scan as they believed my placenta was blocking his movements, it was he was moving away and I couldn’t feel it but she did say if he has reduced movement again tomorrow or any other day still go back in it’s important they are checked every time don’t sit and chew just ohone xx

Thank you everyone for your comments, I called the hospital and they advised me to drink something cold and lay on my left side, they said to wait for 2 hrs before calling back and my baby did start moving, I let the midwife know and she said baby was probably having a long nap or was having a lazy moment, she did say if I didnt feel any movement after 2 hrs again to come in and get checked though, thanks again everyone x

Embarazo después de cesárea

Hola mamis, quería comentarles mi situación
Mi médico me dió la opción de interrumpir el embarazo
Hace ya 2 años tuve una cesárea y estoy embarazada ya de casi 12 semanas
Tengo riesgo de que se desprenda la placenta, se rompa el útero o que la placenta se pegue a la cicatriz de la cesárea. Todo esto por la cesárea anterior
Tienen alguna experiencia así? No sé si seguir o no porque hay riesgo

Alergia al huevo

Hola buenas tardes quiero comentarles que le quiero poner la vacuna del SRP a mi niño de 1 año 4 meses fui al centro de salud y me pidieron unos estudios luego me pidieron volver y fui después de un mes porque me tardaron los estudios ahora resulta que salieron de vacaciones y luego regrese y me mandaron a un hospital general de gobierno me dijeron cosas que ni fui a pedir y me mandaron a otro hospital a 4 horas de aquí y que ahí no le van a poner la vacuna que ahí solo voy a hacerle más estudios de alergia y que ahí me van a mandar a otro lado y la verdad esa doctora no me dió confianza porque me dijo que no vacunara a mi hijo que va a quedar mal porque esa vacuna trae un componente del huevo pero a un primo que ahorita tiene 25 años que también es alérgico al huevo de bebé le pusieron esa vacuna pero antes le pusieron una vacuna que lo hace inmune al huevo y luego la respectiva vacuna y pues no creo que hace 25 años tuvieran más conocimientos que ahorita la doctora esa me dijo que si podía que no lo vacunara y que lo tuviera aislado ya me tienen harta mejor voy a ir con un pediatra particular y es que estoy muy preocupada porque la primera dosis es hasta los 12 meses y la segunda años 18 meses y la tercera a los 6 años y la doctora me dijo que le pusiera solo la de los 6 años y ya
