Attending triage a thousand times

I had a miscarriage and when I fell pregnant again I brought a home scanner for peace of mind. However, if you are having adverse symptoms, then don't feel bad for going to hospital. Your baby's life depends on you.

Yes this was me with my rainbow pregnancy. I lost my first baby in the third trimester (due to a very rare genetic condition, so this isn't to worry you), but with my rainbow I was a mess. For me, it probably started around the point you're at now as I was feeling proper movements and I became obsessed with tracking her movements. I was still on maternity leave following the loss of my son, so being at home there were days I would spend most of my time lied down tracking her movement. I kept a diary in my phone of the exact time and the type of movement to show me that she was actually moving. This actually helped a lot, but also meant I would panic when she hadn't moved in an hour or two. I must have been into maternity assessment 10 times or more between 23-39 weeks with worries about movement. I was so embarrassed too, and every now and then I'd have a midwife who made me feel like a time waster. But, now my rainbow is here and feel embarrassed feels so stupid because I know I was just following my instinct, and the midwives wouldn't even remember me now they'll have seen that many women. You do what you need to in order to get through the pregnancy. It sounds like you're already being an amazing mum who's looking out for their little one.
Good luck with the rest of the pregnancy OP, won't be long until baby is here and you can forget about the embarrassed feeling 💖
