Today is a bad PGAL day... Update

atangiblewish · March 2013

I noticed I haven't felt movement really since yesterday afternoon (which they were REALLY light). I haven't done the doppler in over a week (it's a record!). But, I've been under a lot of stress since my mom had been diagnosed with Cancer last week. And not feeling Victoria has me scared all of a sudden. I felt her a lot the day before yesterday, I think it was. Now nothing . I'm sure everything is fine and she's just sleeping away. But why oh why can't we all have that innocence and just shrug it off?!? I look forward to delivering her at full term all happy and healthy.

Update: First of all, thank you all again for the beautiful thoughts for my mama. Secondly, Victoria is kicking Guess she was just sleeping away for nearly 24 hours. I will still use my doppler for reassurance. She must've thought it was already April Fools day. Silly girl.

Don't stress about using the Doppler. I use mine still whenever baby boy has a slow day. I know he is probably just in a weird position or taking a nap but it makes me feel better, and that is worth it to me.

I would use the doppler, and then I find D is most active if I am bent over or hunched and hopping "her space". If you are concerned calling can't hurt.
