My 25year old daughter, pregnant with her 2nd baby girl is just going into her 39th week of her pregnancy. She is quite a big girl anyway, but her pregnancy is much much larger in size, than when she had her 1st baby girl in July 2011. At the start of her 38th week, the midwife measured her bump which was surprisingly saying that she measured at 45 weeks. We thought the baby would have honestly arrived before now, as for most of the whole of the pregnancy she has been "very Low" the head has been down for a while, and we can't believe baby is still in there. We thought that as there didn't seem to be any concerns from the midwife, at that appointment, & she was saying all was "good, good, good, that everything is presumed as so. The baby girl has been very much so a lively little thing , we've been making jokes about the shapes she's been making on the outside of the bump, little fists n feet sticking out here n there, but, unaware, as she hasn't mentioned it until tonight, the baby hasn't moved, at all, all day, except for a bit of a flutter this early morning. As soon as I've heard we got on the phone to the birthing centre, & my husband is on route with her to the hospital, to be put on monitor as I'm writing this. I couldn't go with her as I'm a foster carer also, I have children here, as well as my grand daughter, little Maisy who's four and tucked up in bed, excited for her new baby sisters arrival. My daughter is close to her dad and in safe hands and supported by him. In the meantime, I had to ask, if anyone can enlighten me as to what could be going on here? I'm very anxious. Thanks.
