My Doctor told me that if you don't feel your baby within 6 hours you NEED to call and that you should know the last time you felt him/her. She said "I don't know when I felt him last" is a bad answer. If I were you I would call ASAP.

hiya babe. just read your post about the amount of times your baby should move and my midwife told me you should feel at least 10 different moves in 12 hours.... if not, ring the midwife. Hope this helps xxx

I would not worry to much, but have you done a fetal kick count. Drink some really cold ice water, and lie on your left side, might even try poking your bellie a bit. Just pay attention to your belly, and see if the baby moves within the hour. If nothing go to your labor and delivery hospital to have a non-stress test done on the baby. Best wishes. Please keep up posted.

My midwife was worried that our baby was too small and ordered another ultrasound to check his growth at 28 weeks. Everything was fine and the next time the doctor saw me he wasn't worried at all. Just said that baby is 'under average' but 50% of babies are, obviously. This is my third baby and I'm always told that I'm a bit smaller. Try not to stress too much - let me know how you go : )

I just had the same problem with measuring small. At 30 weeks I was measuring at 26 weeks. I had an ultrasound done and everything looks perfect! She was actually a little bigger than normal.
I would do a little internet research and see what you can find on "measuring small". Apparently it has a 50% false positive rate, so its not very accurate.
Best of luck!

My doctor said that I am measuring small too, but he said that I have a long torso, and am on the smaller active side and that I am not going to show like other people. So, maybe you are the same way I am 5''7 too.

Hi, I went to the doctor yesterday and my doctor told me the exact same thing. I am 31 weeks and i was only measuring 29 . My doctor aid it could just be because I was small but they will have to do an ultrasound as well. Let me know how it goes. I will keep you updated on what my doctor says! Good luck.

I've only gained 5 lbs because I lost a bunch of weight in the being. Don't worry, its totally normal. Your eating well. I would not worry about eating extra calories unless your doctor shows concern at your next visit.
leste20 - Wednesday, 9 April
I know how you feel. I am 22 and I got pregnant unexpectedly too. I am married, but I totally understand your situation. My first year living with my husband was the hardest time we ever had, but once you get through it and get used to each other it will work out! Try not to worry!! brooklyn25 - Wednesday, 9 April
I'm getting scared too, but I think it's normal. I mean we have a lot on our minds and this whole thing is sort of out of our control. This is my first child as well, and even though she was planned I still worry about everything ALL the time. I guess all we can do is sit back and hope for the best! This may not be very helpful, but I just wanted you to know that you're not the only one who feels this way. Besides I'm sure we'll make great moms ;0)

Being a new mom is overwhelming- but take it one day at a time. The baby doesn't ever recognize or notice half of the things we obsess on. It won't know if the nursery isn't done, or if it is wearing generic diapers and hand me down clothes. Kids don't know for YEARS that money is tight. I got my Masters degree with a one year old, graduated when he was three. He never really was affected by it. You can do it- just thinkg about what needs to happen everyday, not the big picture. I hope you two stay together- but either way, you can do it. Your baby just needs love and basic needs met, you can do that easy.

Hey, I just wanted to let you know I feel the same way as you sometimes. I'm twenty one and not married either. I live with my boyfriend but we are having a lot of problems and have only been together just short of a year. I get really scared that things will turn out bad between us and my daughter will not have a mother and father growing up. I also worry a lot about our financial situation I work full time but it is not a career. I want to start college but am worried I won't be able to once I have the baby. I guess the good thing is is that at least the fact that you are having some of these worries shows that you care about being a responsible mother. I think some of it is the fear of the unknown since this is our first child. Good luck with everything and try not to worry too much. I'm here if you ever need to talk.
momofthree - Wednesday, 9 April
Hi Melge, your feelings are normal. First..don't worry about being a good mother, there's no doubt you will be. And you know...live for today, live in the present. Don't worry about what's going to happen with your relationship down the road. You spend more time living in the future that way, then in the present! I had my first child when I was 21, an I was married... but I had a terrible marriage then, you know what though... after we divorced... I was still a good mom. My child made me stronger! AND well if you stay together...that is awesome also.. just live for today! As Janis Joplin would say...don't live for tomorrow..because sometimes tomorrow never comes!
TrulyBlessed - Wednesday, 9 April
Hi and congrats! Just read your post and understand why you feel scared and worried...we do tend to worry more when pregnant but I think that no matter how 'planned' the baby is or how 'prepared' we think we are, nothing really prepares us for the reality of motherhood. Just stay strong, you are much stronger than u think you are, it will come to you naturally. How do I know since I have never met you...its instinct, no matter what else is going on in your life, you will always do whats best for your baby and that makes you a great mum! Hope this helps some :)
Peace and Love!!!

I know what you mean when you don't get enough sleep everything is harder the next day. I feel for you on having to get up to go to the bathroom a lot. It's getting old!
NatalieCFM - Wednesday, 12 Mar
I just noticed your comment about feeling dizzy and faint. I've had that with all of my pregnancy's....never figured it out until this one. I found it's only when I'm dehydrated...and usually happens if I haven't had a drink of water for awhile. I started making sure I take my water with me, and it hasn't happened since. Hope it works for you!
