36 weeks 3 days

Is it normal to feel less movements?? I feel them, but they aren’t as often & not as strong…I was just in the hospital for dehydration & heart rate & movement were great..I’m nervous to be “that” mom who keeps coming in

My OB actually told me that if I ever feel decreased movement, I should go in and get checked, even if it happens more than once. She said monitoring is never a bad thing, and personally I’d rather have the reassurance than sit at home worrying

As long as it’s 10 movements every two hours you’re okay. Otherwise l&d

no, they technically shouldn’t decrease just the way they feel changes because baby has less room at this point. def go to l&d if you’re concerned!

my OB and midwife told me that l&d always always always prefers you come in if you feel like something may be wrong. they never judge you for worrying about the wellbeing of your baby! i know we all hear this all the time, but trust your gut especially when it comes to fetal movement

Try eating something sweet and see if that works if it doesn't definitely go get checked. My OB did that my last pregnancy at a stress testing to see if bab6 was moving and it worked.

I wa told it's normal. They're getting so big that it's cramped so they might not move as much. I'm 36 weeks on Sunday.

Anyone else just feel huge already?

I feel like I’ve really popped the last week or so and it’s like I’ve swallowed a beach ball 🤣

Rolling over

So my daughter is 16 weeks (soon to be exactly 4 months on the 25th). Im looking at the milestones tracker one of which being rolling over.

She can roll from her back on to her side and then to her back again but not from back to front and cant roll at all when on her front.... when do we class babies as being able to roll? When can I tick this off?

Pic of her playing with monochrome square.

32 week growth scan

Just had my growth scan and baby already measuring 4lbs 11oz! I’m absolutely beside myself wondering why he’s so big! My first baby only 5lbs 8oz at full term so I’m pretty stressed. Not been given a reason to why he’s bigger than adverage but they said they wanted to rebook my next growth scan and speak to a doctor. But I feel so worried to why they want me to speak to a doctor. I’m scared they aren’t telling me something

Life with a FOMO baby 🫠

How are you all doing?

I feel like everyone is back to working out, watching TV, having sex and going on vacations. While I'm still living the newborn phase, with frequent crying, feeding, waking in the night, living off frozen meals 🫩. If anyone says do it while the baby sleeps, doesn't have a FOMO baby 😂

Anyone else having pregnancy nightmares?

I don't understand why I woke up last night feeling like a kid experiencing their first nightmare. I had to tell myself that there isn't a zombie outbreak and there isn't a war going on outside. Afterwards asking my bf for comfort and confirmation🫠 I've had alot of bad dreams and nightmares but this was so odd to me. I do have bad anxiety which I imagine didn't help any but I'm curious if anyone else had this? I'm only 12 weeks and this is my first pregnancy so I feel a little clueless 🙈
