advice.. please
hi ladies, i’m just about 24 weeks- yesterday i was pretty active, doing a lot of outdoor work around the house, i noticed i’m not feeling too much movement like i was last week… i thought maybe id feel more today but i’m not.. i used the Doppler and the heart rate is strong .. 155s.
i’m nervous… should i be worried?
I notice my baby’s active times are still sporadic. It used to be early morning when I would feel her the most, so it worried me when she suddenly stopped moving in the mornings and now does at night. I just ate lunch at work and normally she’s pretty mellow during the day but my coworker could even see my belly shifting around from her today.
I would eat something sweet and lay still for a bit. Baby might start moving around then to ease your mind! (I’m 26w).
I did yard work yesterday and noticed the same thing. Fortunately I happened to have a scan scheduled this morning. Everything was good. I’m sure you’re fine!
26-28 weeks is when you should be concerned about less movement. the baby at 24 weeks still has lots of space and can still hide, also they can turn toward your back and you may not feel much. as long as the heartbeat was good you have nothing to worry about
