Movements at 20+3

I have been feeling my baby girl move from 18 weeks when movement was irregular (light taps), from 19 weeks I have felt bigger kicks, mostly in the evening but sometimes during the day. I had a very busy day yesterday (spend 5 hours travelling on the train and the rest in work meetings) and I felt an odd kick in the day, but evening movements were a lot more subtle and there were fewer of them. I know at this stage there is no patterns and the baby is small but does this warrant calling maternity triage?

I felt so many swims and flutters from 17-19 weeks and then barely anything just a little here and there, I have an anterior placenta but still significantly less, I assume baby is getting bigger so less space to swim about and the bigger movements are getting muffled by the placenta? I have my 20 week scan today so I’ll see how it goes

I always think if im busier in the day I feel less anyway. When im less active I definitely feel more. There's a reason they come out nocturnal 😆 we rock them to sleep during the day so theyre awake when we're still at night

Physiotherapy referral

Ive received a letter from the NHS saying I have been referred to physiotherapy due to the nature of my birth. Nobody told me about this and it says its for pelvic floor stuff. I havent had any issues and thought my stuff was all signed off now. Do pelvic floor issues and such tend to be delayed? Has anyone else received this letter? Unsure whether I should book the appointment or if its a waste of their time.

Baby boy has arrived!

He was due the 10th but arrived the 12th at home with the amazing support of two midwives.

2 c-section and vbac

I had an emergency c section the first time (5 years ago) and had to get a c-section again the second time (almost 3 years ago) because my file had me down as high risk
I just found out I’m pregnant, is there a chance I could do vbac? Has anyone had this experience?

Baby movements.

I am a first time mom in my 20th week of pregnancy.
Haven’t felt any strong baby movements so far. Is it something to worry about ?
Just feel like a gas bubble floating sometimes.
Doctor told me I have anterior placenta.
