When to ring triage?

It’s always best to go and get checked - I’ve been in a few times to be monitored and it’s never a bother to triage - they’d rather see you a thousand times and everything be okay than you hold off that one time you should have been checked!

My baby deffo has days quieter than others, also I have anterior placenta so it's harder to feel her in certain positions. But midwife always says if you're wondering whether to ring triage for reduced movements then you should already be on the phone to them. X

Thankyou, and is there a specific time you can go, as if I ring and have to go in I will be taking shuttle bus from my local hospital which I don't mind but thinking about getting back?

Triage is 24 hours :)

They say reduced movements but that can also be a change in movements. You’ll feel better once you call

I am 35 weeks pregnant and was up at triage last week because I hadn't felt him in his pattern that is normal for him. As soon as we got there and the monitor was on he moved around once a minute so 38 times in 40 minutes. They were lovely about it because I felt silly but it meant I could go home and sleep and relax. That's part of their job so definitely follow your gut. She said 99.9% of people she sees their babies are absolutely fine so go and get checked and you'll feel much calmer x

Definitely, I'll give them a ring now x

I went in for reduced movements 2 days ago and they kept me in overnight to monitor. They only let me go once I was satisfied with baby movements. We know them best so always best to go in if u feel theyve changed especially at this stage. For me I think because she's head down now I feel her differently. Also because I have insomnia now I think she's completely changed her sleep routine too
