24 weeks and cramping?

Question

I’m 24 weeks and a few days along. I have been experiencing some cramping and decreased baby movement. I called my OB and they said I should be fine until my appointment next Monday but I’m worried. These are signs of potential late term loss and I wish I could just get an ultrasound sooner to make sure everything is okay. Has anyone else experienced this and ended up being completely fine?

Answer

Yes! In the second trimester my baby’s movements changed a lot. Sometimes it was position, sometimes it was just him sleeping and going through growth spurts. As long as i felt him every few hours, doctor said it was fine. Fetal movement before 28 weeks can be unpredictable and erratic, which is why movement is not tracked or counted until 28+ weeks.
