Increased baby movements

38 weeks and baby was not stop moving for 2 hours from around 8-10pm and then nothing. Anterior placenta so only feel Limited. Rang triage who said they dont do anything regarding excess movements. Just worried as baby has never had a full 2 hours of wriggling like mental. Read online could be a cause of distress. Anyone else had a bout of increased movement at 38 weeks?

Hey!! That’s really frustrating they won’t see you maybe it could be worth trying to call them again and just say I know I’ve been told you don’t see for excess movements but it’s now been X amount of hours and this is not our pattern this is very different to how I usually feel baby,

I will say- I have had bouts of excess movement that felt concerning but it wasn’t anything and I went to triage for excess movements Monday and it was all fine but you know your body and baby best. I know it’s harder with your placenta placement

Has anything happened since with triage?

Hey!
I've just had my glucose test back and I've got Gestational Diabetes 😩 has anyone else been diagnosed/had it before?
I'm really struggling with coming to terms with it and anxious about how I'll manage it/what it'll mean for the rest of my pregnancy x

Line eyes??

I keep looking at the test and I’m convinced there is a line?

8 week pp c section still opening??

8 weeks pp, I get my scar seen once a week since 3 weeks pp due to an infection, had 3 lots of antibiotics, it’s closed then opened in multiple places, then closed and opened again. It was closed Sunday and yesterday had slight bleeding from one part and a small hole again.
I’m so over it now and deflated about I feel like it’s never going to heal, any one else had this? Please tell me there’s light at the end of the tunnel, I’m so scared they will want to restitch it even though drs said that’s rare it’s my worst nightmare!

High pain threshold...

Please give me some comfort im so nervous.
Ive just got out of 4 day stint in hospital after have a very intense bloody show at 35 + 3. Im talking blood down my legs kind of intense...
Anyway, im high risk. I have gestational diabetes, cholestasis and pre eclampsia, and have a section booked in 2 weeks time at 38 weeks. Before I was released from hospital I had a cervical check and I was 3cm, but they said all my levels were okay so go home and come straight back at the first sign of either waters breaking, more blood outside of mucus, or contractions. My problem is - im so worried that im not even going to realise something is a contraction snd miss it and then not even make it to the hospital for my section before im too dialated. I had no idea i was 3cm, ive had some slight cramps today but nothing thats concerned me??
