They monitored me on the machine for about two hours. About 40 minutes in she started moving around like her regular self again. They also did a BBP (?) sonogram and she scored a 10/10!</p> <p>Glad I went because I feel better now. But feel bad we woke LO up and she didn't go back to bed till almost 1am. I guess in the bright side when I do go into labor the hospital won't be as new of a experience for her? Poor girl was really worried about me! But she was so good the whole time and we told her she was being a really good big sister! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decreased-baby-movement-in-third-tri#post-1795929 Sun, 03 Aug 2014 11:19:31 +0000 Applesandbananas 1795929@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thinking of you!

My OB only wanted to know if there were less than 6 movements in an hour. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decreased-baby-movement-in-third-tri#post-1795641 Sat, 02 Aug 2014 20:47:07 +0000 mrsjyw 1795641@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS def slowed down his movements at around the same time. I was concerned but turns out it was because he ran out of room!! I'd call the doc just to ease my worry, but I hope it's nothing serious! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decreased-baby-movement-in-third-tri#post-1795640 Sat, 02 Aug 2014 20:42:41 +0000 swedishfish 1795640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hope baby girl starts moving around for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decreased-baby-movement-in-third-tri#post-1795629 Sat, 02 Aug 2014 20:20:49 +0000 pinkb 1795629@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: Yep I had all my NST at the hospital. I think I had about 7 of them. Super easy they just put the HB monitor around you belly and you lay there for like 20 minutes. The monitors\computers will count everything. There needs to be a certain amount of HB accelerations for the baby to pass. If she did not pass they would give me some juice and wait a bit to see if she would cooperate and if needed do an ultrasound. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decreased-baby-movement-in-third-tri#post-1795624 Sat, 02 Aug 2014 20:12:39 +0000 Crisark 1795624@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You know your body and baby. If you are at all worried I'd say better to call. And a NST would be very easy for an ER to do to verify all is well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decreased-baby-movement-in-third-tri#post-1795615 Sat, 02 Aug 2014 20:00:23 +0000 Mamasig 1795615@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would call the doctor or nurse and let them know. Decreased movement could be a sign of low fluid. My younger son's c section was moved up two weeks because of low fluid. I was getting weekly ultrasounds because of GD. My fluid went down from around a level of 10 to 6 in a couple of weeks. The next week it was 1.7 - the doc said below 5 is bad. Anyway, she said that if I weren't getting the ultrasounds we would have known by me letting her know about decreased movement which I did notice that last week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decreased-baby-movement-in-third-tri#post-1795613 Sat, 02 Aug 2014 19:56:38 +0000 sorrycharlie 1795613@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: I had a NST w Olivia for same reasons. They put a monitor on you and you click the button when you feel kicks. Then they did an ultrasound for me! Super easy &amp; relaxing actually haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decreased-baby-movement-in-third-tri#post-1795612 Sat, 02 Aug 2014 19:56:22 +0000 regberadaisy 1795612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: haha yeah. I don't want to wake DH up, call my ILs to come over, go to hospital and have all be for nothing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decreased-baby-movement-in-third-tri#post-1795610 Sat, 02 Aug 2014 19:55:07 +0000 regberadaisy 1795610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsTiger: can they do a NST at the hospital? What does it entail? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decreased-baby-movement-in-third-tri#post-1795609 Sat, 02 Aug 2014 19:54:53 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1795609@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: I'm noticing more sleep patterns now (I'm 34+6) so I don't quite panic with lack of movement the way I would have say, five weeks ago. </p> <p>I'm also in the camp of if you're worried, then call.</p> <p>I had a few scares with Chloe &amp; they also recommended I drink something (usually orange juice) and count 10 kicks in one hour. Once I went in for a NST, and don't you know the little bugger wiggled the entire time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decreased-baby-movement-in-third-tri#post-1795607 Sat, 02 Aug 2014 19:52:24 +0000 HappyBaker 1795607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went through something similar around the same time, I ended up calling my doctor because I was freaked out and they let me come in for a non stress test. It was a relief to know everything was ok, I'd totally call and see if they'll let you come in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decreased-baby-movement-in-third-tri#post-1795606 Sat, 02 Aug 2014 19:51:47 +0000 sorrycharlie 1795606@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm always in the camp of, if you're worried call the doc. Better safe! I'm also paranoid. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decreased-baby-movement-in-third-tri#post-1795603 Sat, 02 Aug 2014 19:47:56 +0000 regberadaisy 1795603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Weird question. </p> <p>So I noticed today baby hasn't been as active and I haven't really felt her move. When she is generally very active and has been slower last week or so. Which being 36 + 3 is normal. </p> <p>Anyway, I was a little concerned so I chugged a glass of cold juice. I laid down and within the first 10 minutes I felt movements. I counted about 9. But now she is all calm again. It's been about another 10 minutes. </p> <p>Everything I'm reading online is saying 10 in 2 hours is good. And I got almost that in 10 minutes. But I kinda feel like I don't typically drink juice so I would think a full glass would keep her quite active for longer than 10 minutes? </p> <p>Thoughts? </p>
