Call your midwife/maternity unit now for more information. Do not wait. Never wait. They will tell you 10000x times over to call and get checked instead of waiting.

My baby hardly moved so was always in for monitoring. If it’s not there normal pattern you should get checked out. That’s what they are there for your not wasting anyone’s time.

Get checked out, always when you feel babys movements have changed. More or less. Please

Try a cold fizzy drink see if it perks baby up. You should always be seen for irregular movements though

I had so many times where i hardly felt my baby, and if I'd have done what the midwifes say over and over again I'd have been there every single day. I did feel her but I noticed a pattern where sometimes I might not feel anything for 2 days. My baby is absolutely perfect 4 month old and thriving and born 4 days early. But yeah, if you feel somethings not right theb obviously go. Just wanted to give you a different perspective

Tried all the usual stuff like caffeine, fizzy pop, ice on your belly, dancing around?

Go get checked, always better safe than sorry! Baby is probably just having a lazy day though, so try not to worry xx

Subchrorionic haematoma

Had out first scan today at the hospital, saw the little heartbeat and measuring 6+4🥰
We also found out I have a subchrorionic haematoma, just wondering if anyone’s else has had or has one and if so was/is everything okay? We’ve waited so long and tried so hard for this baby and just worried. Booked in for another scan in a couple weeks but just curious
I work in a kitchen so my jobs very hands on which I know won’t help🙃

20 week scan call back

Had my 20 week scan last week and was told I have a low lying placenta with lots of scar tissue from previous c section. Was told I’d need to go back at 32 weeks for scan. Just received call from hospital saying consultant has reviewed scanphotos and needs to see me next week regarding placenta. Now I am STRESSED! Any ideas why they would call me back so soon and what it could be about ??!?

C section?

I am currently 31 weeks pregnant with my fourth baby and I’m not sure whether I’ll be having a c section. My last baby was born via planned section due to having low lying placenta which didn’t move but the other 2 were vaginal births although with my first I had forceps and second I had vacuum. So I have always had intervention due to the placentas. With this one I have low pap A so again that is to do with the placenta. What are the chances of me having a c section again and when will I find out?

Waters being broken

I am 39+6 I have come into hospital as I have had some bleeding. I am also having contractions but I am only 1cm. I have been told I won’t be leaving the hospital without my baby and the plan is they are going to break my waters and put me on the hormone drip. Has anyone had this before or had waters broken and put on the drip?

Emergency c-section

I had a scan today and unfortunately there is an issue with the placenta. The consultant basically said that they will monitor but it is likely that this will end in an emergency c-section. Is there anything you’d take with you in your hospital bag specific to c-section? My last birth was natural ending in forceps
