Stressing about everything!

[redrachel22]

So i'm having a bit of a stress at the moment.

I was feeling the baby kick quite a few times last week (i have an anterior placenta so it was low down).

Anyway on Saturday i woke up flat on my stomach, i haven't done that since i found out i was pregnant. When i moved i had a pain in my right side, like a bruised feeling which was there most of Saturday. Since then i have not felt the baby move

Could i have done damage to the baby by sleeping flat on my stomach or am i over reacting? I know the anterior placenta will mask alot of the kicks but has anyone else felt kicks one week then nothing the next at 21/22 weeks?

So today i bought a Babysounds Doppler online to try and put my mind at rest, i'm worrying alot more then i thought i would being pregnant and im thinking if i can check up on the baby every week or so i might relax more.

Hope everythings ok, there just seems to be one thing after another at the moment!!

I know how you feel I don't know where my placenta is lying but I suspect it's masking kicks as I only ever feel them in one place and not often. Anyway, I went out for a meal with family and wore a belt with my jeans. When I stood up I realised the belt had been pressing into my stomach quite hard and my belly was a bit painful. I didn't feel movement for like three days and was panicking.

But today, I woke up and could tell baby was hanging out on my right side, my belly was solid on that side and seemed lopsided. Then baby shifted and I watched my lopsided bump move into a flatter position! It was too cool! So I guess he's ok in there even though he's not giving me a kicking right now.

You aren't alone with the panicking, I think we all do!
