Kinda Worried
Posted: 07-29-04 16:19pm

Ok girls I am 16 weeks now and I have slight headaches now more often like maybe once a week, and sometimes a headache, and earlier this week I could feel my baby move alot, but like for the past two days I only feel him/her like once a day. I have my medicaid now so hopefully next week I can go to a doc. But I was just wandering if this happened to anyone else.

I think that the headaches are normal. I know a lot of pregnant people who tend to get headaches often. As for the moving thing. It can be normal. I mean, as long as the baby is moving I think you are ok. If moving ceases completely, i'd get checked. Being only 16 weeks I mean, moving isn't necessary 24/7. But if you don't feel anything and you *feel* something is wrong..... See a doc. Mother knows best.

Yeah im sure ur fine. The headaches are normal. And as with the moving, 16 weeks is pretty early to feel it anyhow and the baby is so small that u probably wont feel him/her alot. I felt mine move for the first around then, but I would have lots of days where I didnt feel him.. And I didnt start feeling movment daily until I was 22 weeks I believe (i think I felt it a little later then most) even then I had times wherre I barely felt him.But as long as u feel your baby move sometime then you fine, if 24-48 hours go by and u feel nothing at all, thats when I would call a doc.

Its amazing you feel the baby move that much.. 16 weeks is early to feel the baby move, expecially if its your first child, and if your head aches get to severe you need to talk to your doctor.. I had migraines that caused me to throw up alot.
Best of luck

You are going to be getting headaches alot more often now. I get them at least once a day. The only thing you can do is take it easy. My doc said taking 1 tylenol is ok. But its alot better if you lay down, turn off the lights and put a cold rag on your head. It works for me when im at home. Either that or I get some ice cream lol. Its still way to early to feel your baby moving alot because they are still small. They will worry more when your are way further along. You might just have a lazy baby too lol. Mine was active now she kinda sits there and moves when she has the hiccups!

Man I was trying to relply earlier but my internet was trippin, ok well all that is nice to know. And I thought the headaches were normal, but I didnt want to take anything unless it got bad. Ok thanks everybody. Oh and I figured out a way to get whatever pic I want on the net on here since my scanner is broke i'm gonna take a disposable camera and when I get the pics developed pay extra for them to put the pics on a cd for me!!!!! Yay!!!!

It's probably normal. I wouldn't go to the Dr. Unless I started to spot.
