Should I call? Please advise 😞

Question

Since last night at 6pm my babies movements have decreased a lot and I was so dead tired so slept at 9am. At 1am I got my bloody show and his movements are still a lot lower than usual. I had a berry smoothie right now at 9am and it really woke him up, and I already had proper breakfast at 7am and again he’s slowed down again. I’m 39 exactly today so not sure if I should go in the hospital ???

Answer

My midwife says every appointment if baby’s movements are decreased then call. So yeah I’d give them a call, better to be safe than sorry.

Answer

Drink something cold and sugary and lay down on your left side and count movements. If you don’t get 10 movements within an hour, call L&D

Answer

You can always get a nonstress test if you’re concerned about movement! Do what feels right to you mama.

Answer

I would for your own piece of mind x

Answer

In the UK we are told to go & get checked out even if there has been a slight change in movement pattern. Do NOT feel like you’re overreacting or wasting anyone’s time- and don’t wait. You know your baby and their movements and what feels normal. Everything will be fine, but go and put your mind at ease 💜

Answer

At my drs appt at 36 weeks I was told any less than 10 movements a day or any blood to go in. Everyone posting about their bloody show has me confused because I asked and he verified any blood to go.
