I'm not even sure where to start. Sorry for the long-ish post. I wondered if anyone ever had anything similar.
I went to the midwife at 22 weeks who listened to baby HB and all well. I mentioned I hadn't felt movements yet but she said due to anterior placenta, I probably won't for a while and that she hardly felt movement with her baby.
I kinda just accepted this. Anyway on Monday I started thinking about it and ended up ringing in again for some reassurance. They told me to come in and listen to the HB again for reassurance. I did this, and HB all fine! However, they didn't let me leave and said I should speak to a doctor before going (as they wanted to make sure they'd done everything). Doctor scanned me and baby didn't move on the scan - she was only scanning for 5 minutes.
So she referred me to see a consultant - understandably.
I saw the consultant this morning who did an in-depth scan. Everything is well, measuring fine, kidneys fine, brain fine, it hiccuped and it's bladder was fully so it's obviously taking in water etc. However in the 30 minutes he was scanning me, he only got a tiny wave. No body movements.
He said there is no reason why there would be an issue cos everything looks great, but he cannot sign me off as everything okay because baby still didn't move properly on the scan. Played a loud noise and it still wasn't for budging.
I'm now being referred to a specialist hospital to check in.
I wondered if anyone else had a 'lazy baby' that isn't one for kicking/stretching.
What baffles me, is everyone I spoke to told me just to wait until 28-29 weeks to actually feel something with an anterior, but because I've gone in, they're investigating (which I'm grateful for) but I wondered if anyone else has baby that is just content in the womb and isn't kicking about much?
