I am now approaching 22 weeks and have spent all weekend worrying. i haven't felt the baby move since friday night (although it hasn't become regular or strong anyway yet). i just can't stop worrying that something is wrong, and i am now getting aches in my stomach.
i can't see my midwife until thursday, and don't want to go to the hospital as I'm sure it's not that serious. Around three weeks ago I got very heavy crapms and a small bleed, and was advised to go to the hospital by nhs direct. all i can say is that is was the most horrible, unreasuuring experience. I was sent from a & e to the labour ward. this was disturbing enough as i was only 19 weeks, so if the worst had happened the last place I would want to be was on a ward full of mums about to have a healthy birth. they kept us waiting for over 6 hours with only my blood pressure taken, and when the doctor finally came she was very rude saying basically 'what are you doing on this ward? we wouldn't try to save your baby at this stage' They checked the heartbeat with a doppler and all was good, but no one gave me an explanation as to why the bleeding happened. I am worried that they missed something. Can anyone reassure me that this is just normal 'growing pains' or something, as i haven't had any bleeding at all this time.
