20 weeks pregnant..?

Question

Some days I barely feel the baby move and then today I have felt the baby move ALL day, like it hasn't stopped at all. I've drank alot of cokes today I know it isn't good.. But could that be the reason why? And, is this normal?

Answer 1

I just asked the same question a few days ago.  Everyone told me to stop worrying.    

Answer 2

well 20 week is still early  but drinking POP is bad for the baby.  1 can of coke has 39 grams per twelve ounce can. ..meaning 9 teaspoons of sugar!!!!!! if i were you..id cut down.  before i got pregnant i had the worst case of coffee addiction ever. the day i found out  i got pregnant. it stopped...it started again after i got pregnant buttt when you get pregnant..your body is no longer yours for 9 months. think about it..

Answer 3

you are giving your baby a sugar high.... and you wonder why it's moving all around?

Answer 4

There is a book called What to Expect When You're Expecting by Heidi Murkoff, Arlene Eisenberg, and Sandee Hathaway. it is sold at Wal-mart for about $15. This book is great me and my wife bought it w/ our first child and it answers every ? you will have. As to your current ? yes it is normal for a baby to move alot some days and barely any the next. This is nothing to worry about. A baby has high energy days and lazy days just like everyone else does. You need to worry though if you don't feel the baby moving at all (in 24 hours) if this happens call the doctor immediately and if you don't want to wait that long call them up sooner that's what you pay them for.

Answer 5

i dont think the coke ws too good, being that whatever you eat or drink yourself goes to the baby. i dont think caffeine was too good. maybe try drinking caffeine free coke, or instead maybe some juice or milk, or water

Answer 6

it probably isnt making the baby move from drinking coke.... but you can get a urinary tract infection very easily if you don't drink the right stuff... NO POP.... and lots and lots of water

Answer 7

yes..babies sometimes dont move for a day or two and then the next day can be kicking all over the place..lay off the soda a little bit though..anytime your baby kicks thats good..

Answer 8

Yeah. It's very normal. Some days I feel he is just lazy and no matter what I do, he doesn't want to wake up. At 20 weeks the baby may be kicking but say - kicking backwards and you cannot feel the baby.

I can feel my baby move every day, multiple times a day but the funny thing is I was on a fetal monitor a few days ago and on the fetal monitor you can hear movement. While I could feel most of what I heard I couldn't feel ALL of it.

Answer 9

Yeah. It's very normal.

Answer 10

Your baby will go in waves.  Some days he/she will move like crazy and some days not too much.

Try not to drink TOO much caffiene. It can cause miscarriages.  Especially depending on what stage you are at.  (Like below 23 weeks.)  Plus it's just not good for the baby.
