Thanks Cheryl. He didn't even realise he was being hurtful.

What work have you got on this week?

 

[CherylC3]

Aw I'm off today. And tomoro and working tues to sat but not long days thank god. X

 

[Mummy_2_One]

That's good. Being able to slow down a bit will make a difference as to how you're feeling xx What appointments do you have coming up for bub?

 

[CherylC3]

Feeling a bit better still sick but better.. My next scan is the 5th. Xx

 

[Poppy84]

Sorry I've been so quiet recently.
I'm freaking out- havnt felt engleburt move in 2-3 days!!! Does anyone know if that's normal?

 

[MrsDuck]

Aw mummy I'm glad you managed to have a good chat with hubby and as Cheryl says men just think and act differently to us but it doesn't mean they don't care xx

Cath enjoy your cake making and your barbecue later xx

Cheryl I'm glad the ms is easing and that you've managed to cut down your hours xx

Hi shelby :wave: how are you? (I see you lurking) xx

 

[MrsDuck]

My pregnant friend is borrowing my Doppler and she is on holiday. I thought about posting in my January jellybeans thread but u all seem more like friends.
Sorry for moaning when u r all ttc

 

[MrsDuck]

Aw poppy don't be daft, you arent moaning, it must be a scary time for you xx

I think of you all as friends it's a shame we don't all live closer.

When is your friend back with your doppler or can you pop to your local hospital (I know not a great time with it being a bank holiday weekend) but seriously if you are worried hun can you at least call them and ask their advice?

[CherylC3]

Aw poppy why don't u call the hospital to ask Hun... I kno my brothers fiancée had tht when she was pg with Valentina went to hospital and everything was just fine...xx

 

[cupcake1981]

Poppy can you call the midwife? You should get it checked out but is probably nothing to worry about?

I agree I tell you guys things I wouldn't tell my best friend!

Mummy glad you and dh have cleared the air xx

 

[Mummy_2_One]

Poppy, it can be normal. Have you tried having a really cold drink (sugary ones are best - like a juice?) and then lying down for a bit? That usually gets babies moving and lying still helps you feel it more. Did they tell you at your last scan where the placenta is? If you've got a front-lying placenta that can mask a lot of bub's movements. My friend at 32weeks hardly feels anything ever because her placenta is between the front of her tummy and bump, cushioning the 'blows'.

 

[Mummy_2_One]

Sorry, that should have been 'the front of her tummy and BUB'.

 

[Poppy84]

Thanks everyone
I do feel horrible moaning to u all. I havnt even told hubby

I'm going to try the cold drink thing and see if I get anything by end of day. It doesn't help that im ill with a cold and cough so everything prob seems worse.

My friend isn't back until late sept. she's gone travelling around America. I wish I hadn't given it to her now but didn't think I would need it any more

 

[Mummy_2_One]

Poppy, that makes me feel better that you said you're unwell. I had a terrible cold around 20-22 weeks with DD and got really concerned about not feeling her move. Nurse in emergency (on Boxing Day actually, fun stuff) told me that when you are sick, bub is taking it easy too and their movements slow down. Have you have temperatures? Biggest reason would be you're overheating to fight off infection, and bub sleeps more for some reason. Let us know how the cold drink goes. Have you noticed Engleburt moves more with other certain foods or drink? I think chocolate did it for me too.

 

[ShellieLabTek]

Poppy, someone at work last week mentioned when her sister was pregnant if they put something a little bit cold on her tummy, the baby would move over to the other side away from the cold. I don't mean putting an ice pack, just maybe touch a cold can of soda on your belly for a split second maybe? Other then that I have no advice other then calling a nurses line for advice. I'm sure all is well and it's just the normal worry of being PAL. Big hugs!

 

[Poppy84]

Thanks so much mummy, cherym, mrs d and shellie. Ur making me feel a lot better. About to do the cold drink thing. I'll try leaning the glass on my tummy as well

I 'think' I may have felt a little kick a few mins ago. Someone in another thread suggested baby might have found a new cosy place where I can't feel it like before.

I'll stop moaning now xx

 

[baileybubs]

Aw poppy I hope you are ok, have you tried any of the tricks the other ladies mentioned? I'm sure its perfectly normal but I'm no expert! Hope you feel engelbert move soon xxxx

 

[CherylC3]

Aw poppy hope all is ok Hun..x

 

[cupcake1981]

Where is everyone?
