    You should definitely go in ASAP. Phone straight away and let them know what time you can come - or get your partner to leave work early. It is very very important that you get checked if you have had no definite movement for a week. Do you know why you have temps? Have you had the flu? Please get some medical assessment ASAP. Sending lots of loving support to you...

    I feel sort of fluey but more likely just pregnancy stuffiness or a cold. The last few days I have had a sort of belly ache feeling - like when you need to go to the toilet but I don't - and my um, nether regions, have been feeling a little "heavier".

    Same old rib pain on the right side.

    Tired to call but no answer so they must be a bit busy. Will keep trying. Rather embarassed and not sure what to say to them...don't want to sound ignorant and go in for no reason. I hate putting people out!

    This is not no reason. It is very important & they will be eager to come in when you explain.

    Just having a shower and getting dressed (still in my Pjs how bad is that!) then I am off to the hospital.

    Will keep you updated. I'm sure it'll be fine and I will emerge red-faced!

    Better to be safe then to not want to be embarrassed and have something seriously wrong.

    Goodluck hun, hope to hear some good news soon!

    As one of my midwives told me: always call and have us giggle at your antics than not call and miss something serious.

    good luck sweetie xx

    Wishing you all the best Amanda, hopefully bub arcs up to give you some reassurance.

    ETA: Just tell them that you're 34 weeks and haven't felt anything from bub for a week, despite trying things like cold water, sugar, caffeine (and the other things you've tried), and that you ARE on your way in for monitoring.
