Scared 1st Time Pregnant! 23 Weeks Posted: 12-19-05 06:51am
Hello-
i am 23 weeks pregnant, and yesterday was
the first day in several weeks that I had
not felt the baby pushing and stretching
inside me. I wasn't feeling good the
other day and I was doing a lot of
christmas shopping and bending! I'm so
scared...Is it possible to suffocate the
baby inside you or cut off something
inside of you by bending or sleeping on
your back? If the baby isn't alive
anymore, would I know it?
:(

Ok grab something cold and sweet to
drink-coke is usually good. Drink it
then lay down on your left side for half
an hour. If you still feel absolutely
nothing, get to your er. I rememeber
there being days where I thought I felt
nothing and when I got to the hosp the
baby would go crazy-lol. I'm sure it's
nothing, good luck, please let me know
what happens!

I will be 23 weeks tomorrow. I have days
where I do not really feel the baby move.
Yes, that can be scary. It seems to
happen on my most active days where I am
on my feet most of the day. Usually by
the end of the day when I lay down to go
to sleep I feel movement. Either that, or
the next day the baby really makes up for
it by what feels like trying to punch
through my stomach. Just give it some
time. If you do not feel movement for two
or more consecutive days that is when I
would worry.

I just wanted to thank you for your
response. I just returned from the doctor
and everything is okay.
Happy holidays!
