urgent help needed?

[tracey 2]

right im not sure to be worried or not and im fed up of everytime of feeling a little different running up to the hospital and for them to say all is ok and i know thats what they are there for but im shattered tonight and dont feel like i need to go as such but just wanted to ask for some advice.

yesterday my bump seemed a little smaller but i just ignored it thought it was my eyes and today 3 people have said to me you lost some weight and my bump has just like shrunk in a way and not sure if this is normal or if it will come back out i dont know,

iv been having some pains this afternoon but like stiches as iv been doing fair bit of walking and now im resting its not as bad and iv had pain like this before and been spotting a tiny bit but stopped now.

i put my doppler on earlier and been constantly since then listening and can hear heartbeat and he is moving lots as always so no change there, but do you think i should go down to the hospital maybe first thing if im still worried or maybe phone someone?

im sure a lot of it my mind is over thinking everything and thats proberly it but to be honest im worried but im worried everyday

what do you think girls?

((hugs)) I really don't know hon, I just didn't want to read and not post anything.

Is it possible you've lost a little weight through stress and worry? I would think that as you've heard his heartbeat and he's moving around then he should be okay.

I know it's something I've been saying a fair bit recently but give the NHS helpline a bell, maybe they can help put your mind at rest.

Hope everything is okay sweetie

Hi hun!

If you are worrying and need reassurance from the proffesionals, then that is what they are they for.

My bump changes size depending on what way babs is lying. The other day it was lay with its bottom sticking out, so my bump looked bigger (and harder lol!) than usual.

I think the fact that you are picking up lo's heartbeat on your doppler is a good thing tho, so try not to worry too much

i'd say speak to your midwife, but it sounds to me like bubs is lying in a different position to normal, probaly has his/her back to you, are you still feeling kicks?

 

[Flossy82]

Hey hun i have days where grace bump looks bigger than other's. As the ladies have already said it probably also depends on what way bubs is laying , its great you can still feel him moving and hear his heartbeat. But if you have any concerns just speak to your MW im sure she'l be ab;e to reassure you.

hiya hun, my bump regularly changes size and shape. I get a lot of fluid retention and some days it aint as bad so bump looks a lot smaller than other days when i look 8 months pregnant!

Honestly I dont think you have anything to worry about but I can understand why you are worrying and Im sure any medical prof would be understanding too so if you want reassurance you go ahead and see someone.

Tracey with everything you have been through and the point in your pregnancy you are at no-one would be surprised you are worried hun. I am sure the staff at the hospital will understand please don't sit home worrying and go get yourself checked whenever you have a worry most important thaing is you are happy and relaxed as much as you can be

I was going to say exactly the same thing

It's already been said but no-one will think you're wasting time by wanting some re-assurence, this is going to be a stressful week for you regardless and anything you can do to eliviate that then do it, even if that means checking his HB every hour and regular hospital visits.

It is probably just him moving to a different position, i know at 25 weeks Tally did that to me and i was in tears trying to get her to kick me again, i quick trip to the hospital showed she'd just moved position totally and was kicking my placenta.

I cant get smilies to work on this computer but i'm sending lots of hugs and positive vibes.

yesterday i looked about 30 weeks pregnant, today i've shrunk, i just guess it depends how she's lying

but if you're worried ring mw, its what theyre there for

 

[scones]

Aw you poor love Im sure, like the others have said, that it is worry and stress, you are coming up to a hard 'stage' in your pregnancy and it is obviously things are pleying on your mind and you are picking up every little thing, including looking smaller.

I feel smaller somedays then huge on other days, I wake up sometimes and forget Im preg then suddenly remember.
Hope you are ok hun xxxxx

thanks al for the messages been worried for nothing, been feeling normal movements and gave the hospital a ring this morning before work and they asked me few questions about how was feeling and movements and said what i posted last night, they said i could come down for reassurance or any point during day if i wanted to they were lovely,

iv got my scan on monday next week so i think that will help me bit more relax a bit more but he has been fine today and i have the hospital on my phone should i need to call them for anything and know how to contact my mw if i need to as well but im popping into docs tommorrow for counselling session so arranged to see my doctor to out my mind bit more at rest.

think i might just move in to the hospital for rest of this pregnancy now least i wont proberly worry so damn much, anyway thanks for last night guys
