This will be my 3rd baby, since about 14 weeks ive been very fortunate to have the feeling of bubbles in my belly, im now almost 17 weeks, since the weeks have gone on ive had constant very noticeable movements of the baby with each week being more obvious, been so fortunate.
Today ive not noticed any, I have a very big history or loss, 9 miscarriages I total, one being a missed miscarriage at 3months last year, so lack of movements today is driving me to think the worst. I have my appointment with my midwife on Friday so will hear the heartbeat for the first time then (all being well) but i have no phone number for my midwife or anything? The badger app doesnt give any numbers or message options either. I know babys dont always move when you want, but im just scared especially after finally announcing to family/friends and being so excited after so much loss.

Can you call the labour ward at your hospital, or your gp to forward to your midwife?
Googling the hospital and labour ward should also bring up their details.
I hope all is ok but I’m a huge believer it’s better to get checked if it doesn’t feel right🩷

They say any decline in movement is important to get checked, particularly if you have history of loss for your own sake. There should be numbers you can call under ‘care team’
