A little bit worried..

[~Stoked~]

I have been laying down for the last 45 mins or so and it's not getting any worse. I really want to avoid the hospital if possible as it probably is just nothing and I'd probably have to wait for 4 hours to see anyone! I'm waiting to see if it continues once the baby goes to sleep. He's very active at the moment!

did you call your midwife?
I'd get it checked out just in case

Oh it's a scarey business isn't it? Especially when there's so many sad stories around to add fuel to the already-present fears. Don't know what your hospital is like, but I've had a couple of freak-outs about lack of movement - once with this pregnancy and one with DD's - and I just called maternity. They let me just come straight in to them rather than going through emergency, and just popped me on the monitors for a bit so we could check all was ok. They were SO lovely about it, and told me that if I so much as got 5 mins down the road and got worried again, that I could come straight back. I'm just going public, but there were enough staff around that it wasn't a problem.

Point is, it's worth giving maternity a buzz as maybe you won't have a 4 hr wait, and you'll get some peace of mind. Hope it all settles down very soon Hun. oxo

Hope it settles for you darls - I agree with PP, just give maternity a call and see what they say. They will be able to say if they are busy or if you can just pop in for some monitoring and peace of mind
