Reduced movements

I’ve had a good few bouts of reduced movements since 24 weeks everytime I go baby is absolutely fine. Had a midwife appointment yesterday asked about movements and told them all is okay, today I’ve woken up and not really felt baby all day, I know the best thing is to get checked out but I can’t help but feel dramatic being up there nearly once a week with reduced movements!

Hey lovely . Where is your placenta ? Honestly it’s better to get checked and all be okay then not get checked and you miss something. You know your body xx

This is like my baby. I've had a little reduced movement, since this heatwave.. But of a night my little one becomes active. I was told to try and drink more stay hydrated and try not to be in the sun so much. Its hard not to worry but your definitely not wasting their time. Go with your gut xx

Are you up and moving about lots through the day? With my anterior placenta i feel baby very little whilst up and moving but can check in with him when i sit for half an hour and have a drink/snack, don't feel dramatic though getting checked if you feel you need to! That's what they're there for and we don't have x-ray vision to see baby all the time, sometimes the reassurance is worth it

Question.

Hi, moms I need some advice! I’m 32 weeks pregnant . all day today I’ve been having a bit of cramping/pelvic pain really bad just below my belly. should I go get checked out? I also was having a lot of back pain, both feel like cramping I’ve had in the past when I was on my menstrual cycle . it definitely hurts I couldn’t sleep.

Induction method

Second time being induced. Just got the news today that I'll be induced on Sunday due to calcium on my placenta, baby measuring on the 5th centile, and reduced movements.

First time I got the pessary put in, was extremely sore and unpleasant and took 36h to finally being 2cm dilated. I am not sure I want this again.

Any recommendations on induction method that worked well for you and didn't take forever?

Thank you girls!

Symptoms easing?

Hi I am about 11 weeks and past few weeks was suffering so badly with exhaustion and mood swings (my mental health has definitely taken a hit in first trimester) ive had no nausea or vomiting really, past few days I have felt relatively ok which made me worry! However last night I sniffed some bananas in our kitchen that had gotten warm and my god I have never been so close to projectile vomiting in my life 🤣
Has anyone else found an easing of symptoms around this time?
I have my 12 week scan next week though I predict I will be a few days behind based on my cycle length and past private scans
I haven't had a private scan since 7th May so I keep worrying if everything is ok!
Any reassurance welcome 🤣
