Fetus/baby's Death In the Womb Posted: 08-31-05 07:39am
Is it possible not to know if the
fetus/baby already died inside the womb?
I am on my 22nd week of pregnancy and this
situation is worrying me. Sometimes my
baby is active but sometimes not. Are
there symptoms/signs in case the fetus
died inside the womb apart from not
feeling any movement at all? Please
advise.

If you were feeling movement and now
nothing at all. Go to dr
baby in the early stages of movemenet, go
sometimes a couple of days and you dont
feel nothing. Drink sprite and ly down,
you will feel him move if you really relax
and listen. If baby died you would
prolly have really bad symptoms.

As fatfamily says, drink a litre of ice
cold water and relax for a bit. If you
dont feel any movement within a half an
hour to an hour, you should contact your
doc.

Yes you would have really bad symptoms. I
went to school with a girl and she lost
the baby but didnt really know it yet.
She said she was getting really bad
cramping. When she went to the er they
did an ultrasound and said the baby hadn't
made it and the pain was from the fetus
decomposing.
This may be graffic but I have read it
also during my first pregnancyafter I
misscarried and it went into more detail.

the fetus/baby is active yesterday and is
quite pleased 'bout it. In case I have
to go through those inactive days again,
will try dublin's suggestion to drink ice
cold water. This might shake my little
one a bit :) . But in case I do not
feel any movement at all in a day, I will
definitely ring my ob asap.

I met a woman the other week who said that
she had lost a number of babies before
carrying full term. She told me that if
you are in doubt during your pregnancy as
to whether your baby is still ok, pinch
your nipples and if they hurt, then
everything is ok.
I don't think it is meant as in "pinch"
but as in "tweek" kind of thing if you
know what I mean. And I just want to
say, that I don't know if this works or
not. She said that it's all to do with
the body reacting to the baby's needs or
something like that....
(think I might be wittering...Got no sleep
last night....My boobs are killing
me!!!!!!!)

i knew it was okay--sometimes just dont
feel them so much in the beginning.
Wonderful glad its okay--so ice water
worked. They had me do ice cold
sprite--when I was pregnant. Had a lot
of times with my daughter I couldnt feel
her, but I think its more normal for
girls. My boys never stopped once they
started to move.
