To phone the maternity department because of a feeling?

I'm 41 weeks and have had a feeling like something is wrong all afternoon. Nothing to back this up, it's just a feeling. Sort of like dread but I don't know why.

I can't tell if I'm just fed up of being pregnant or something is wrong. I'm still getting movements (maybe less than usual, I don't know, it's never been in a reliable pattern, but then am I just making up reasons to try and explain this feeling?!) Anyway, I tried the fizzy drink and lay down trick and felt the baby moving.

So AIBU to want to phone the maternity department because I just feel odd? Is there anything they'd even be able to do?!

OP the exact same thing happened to me 5 months ago.
I started a thread at 39 weeks asking if anyone was due and in the same boat.
24 hours later my baby was born.

Congratulations!!

I felt odd from 40 weeks with youngest, had already had reduced movements on and off and had been in twice to monitor. Third time with the odd feeling I cried down the phone at the midwife as I felt terrified, she said come straight in, blood pressure was through the roof, reduced movements were picked up on monitor. I was a Vbac so had waters broken to induce, son was born with cord round neck twice. Always best to check.
