Times to call your dr!
I keep seeing posts that surprise me! Like I get that people want to ask questions about certain things and by all means do it!! BUT ALSO CALL YOUR DR!! We aren't Drs on here so we can't give you proper medical advice and even if someone is a dr on here they don't know your whole medical history the way your dr does! I answer on a lot of those questions especially about bleeding Becuz I have had bleeding and it turned out to be a subchorionic hematoma and went away and was fine! BUT I actually didn't even call my dr lol I ran straight to the er. glad I did!! Lol yes Icould have just waited till the next day and called my dr and I took it to an extreme but still you must must call your dr about any of these signs!
Bleeding (spotting) it could be nothing but it could also be something so it always warrants a call to your dr!
Severe cramps (or really any cramps that leave you worrying or feeling as if something is wrong! Trust your intuition (that's a hard one as I'm 35 weeks already and have been cramping from week 4!! And been in and out of Drs offices and hospitals and thank god all is well I just have a crampy stomach. You don't have to go as nuts as me!! But definitly report it to your dr!!!
Gush of fluid: it could be pee (that happened to me lol) but it could also be your water! That's always something to call your dr about!!
Severe vomiting and can't keep food down. That can be hyperemisis and typically needs some form of treatment but either way call your dr!
Lack of fetal movement. Or no fetal movement! So when you get towards the end the movements change and it may seem as tho they are less. Lay down drink something cold eat something sweet and relax ( best if you know babies active times) but if not it should still work if you poke at your belly. Give it 1-2 hours if you get 10 kicks in 2 hours baby is fine! However if you typically get 10 kicks in 15 minutes (as do I) and it takes you 2 hours to get those ten kicks! More than just one slow day of course I would call your dr and report that they'll probably say it's fine! But still tell them (my dr actually says 10 kicks in 1 hour) but most say 2 is fine!
There's more that I'm forgetting and my hubby Just came home lol so gotta go but just wanted to put this out there!! Like I love giving support and I actually come on here and ask about kicks and stuff but I always ALWAYS call my dr!! That is what they are there for and that is their job! You are not bothering them!! Hope we all have healthy and happy pregnancies xoxoxoxo 😘😘😘❤️
