Had midwife appointment last friday at which all was fine with baby. Am 27 weeks now and she asked me if I was feeling baby move every day and I said yes.
She then went on to say that if I don't feel him move for longer than like 7 hours I should be calling the labour ward. Is this the right amount of time. She also said if I'm not feeling him then I should take myself away to lie down and concentrate - this only makes him move less! And how the hell am I supposed to do this when I work full time - "sorry boss - just off for a lie down to see if I get a kick"!
She's just made me really paranoid about feeling movement - and when I'm being paranoid I feel him less - for example its 12pm now and I haven't felt hardly anything since about half 6am.
Sorry for the rant - just so panicky now!
