Its been 3 days since baby moved? scared!!!?

Question

I am 21 weeks, and usually the baby moves at least 3 times a day....the last 3 days there has been nothing....should i rest and take off work for the day...or go into the er? i dont want to over react but i have lost a baby before at 22 weeks

Answer 1

You can have a sweet drink or bite then rest but with your history of losing a baby at 22 weeks you really need to see your OB as soon as possible. wish you luck.

Answer 2

I would call my OB if I were you. I'm 23 weeks and if I didn't feel my baby move that's what I would probably do.

Answer 3

eat something rather sugary, or drink something sugary. that should wake him/her up.

Answer 4

Try drinking something very sweet or eat something sweet. Then lay down on your side and see what you feel. This is what the doctors say do to feel the baby. If nothing then get to the doctor.

Answer 5

When it is so early in the pregnancy, movement is not consistent at all. You could try drinking water and lying on your left side for a while. Give your doc a phone call if you can. Then if you are still really worried, then just go to the ER. I know what it's like being pregnant and worried, you won't get any rest!

Answer 6

i worried the same thing

my baby used like crazy

then all of a sudden i felt nothing

i was so worried (i suffered a miscarriage over a yr ago before this pregnancy)

i called the doctors office they said drink something cold and lay on the left

i did and still nothing

if you try it and still nothing then go down to the office ask to do an ultrasound

i did and they was just laying there doing nothingbut there still days they move and dont move

Answer 7

I would get some sugar in you then lay still for an hour. If you still don't feel anything I would definitely call the doctor.

Answer 8

first try and drink some caffiene or something with alittle sugar . if nothing and yo are still unsure then go get checked just in case and for your piece of mind . good luck  

Answer 9

If it were me I would go to the Dr right now. Good luck  

Answer 10

Definitely go see a doctor if you are worried especially if you have lost a baby before.  It is better to be safe than sorry.  I am 21 weeks with my third child and he moves a lot thought the day.  More so if I am laying down and resting.  You could try laying down for about an hour and see if you feel your baby move.  If you don't then ge see your doctor to be sure that there is nothing wrong.

Answer 11

have you tried drinking some juice and laying down?  if there is still no movement you should call your doctor or go to the er.  good luck, i hope everything works out.

Answer 12

CALL YOUR DOCTOR!

Answer 13

Answer 14

You need to call your obgyn and ask him...that's what he's there for. Good luck!

Answer 15

drink and eat alot of sugar and if there is no movement within a couple of hours i would go the ER or even contact your doctor to see what she/he has to say.

You can never be to protected over your child ...
