Does anyone else have very little movement? My doctor said not to start counting untill 28 weeks. She said, right now i should just feel something everyday. I do feel "something everyday" but but not a lot. it worrys me. anyone else?
Discharge- do you have a lot? sometimes my underwear are very wet, mostly after a workout and i can't tell if its sweat, normal juices or something else. Any one else? What is normal?

Re: very llittle baby movement & Discharge
Somedays my LO moves so much I sit in my rocking chair and try to rock him to sleep. Some of his kicks hurt. Other days, I may feel him just a couple of times all day.
As far as discharge goes, it seems the furter along I go, the more it gets (if that makes sense). Or, if I've had BH, it seems to be a little worse for a little while. Lately, it seems instead of just some discharge through out the day (ie-a little on my tp when I wipe), I'm getting globs of discharge (may not have any for several hours like usual, then all of a sudden when I wipe, bu-bam, there it is).
I don't know if there is a "normal" across the board, I think it's what's normal for each individual. Personally, I felt very little movement between about 23-27 weeks. Now, baby is super active. I was a little worried during those few weeks when there wasn't a lot of movement, but kept telling myself that worrying about it wouldn't help matters, especially since every resource I had told me not to be concerned until 28 weeks.
Discharge - I have a lot more than I did before I was pregnant. I've been wearing pantiliners 24/7 since about 14 weeks. I have to change them every 4 hours or so (I don't change overnight), after that they start to smell.
My LO has been barely moving lately. I saw my MW yesterday and she told me the next couple weeks are a huge growth spurt for him so he won't be moving much at all. She told me if I am worried to drink a big glass of cold water and lay on my back. She said anything less than 6 movements in 2 hours is worrysome. And she said to really pay attention, that ANY movement counts, it doesn't have to just be a kick.
As for discharge, I could probably wear a diaper. I have been wearing pantyliners basically since BFP. I change my pantyliner several times a day.
I started feeling more frequent and stronger movement around 27-28 weeks. If you're worried, drink some juice or pop and lay on your left side, that should get your LO moving.
I've had a ton of discharge, I think this is completely normal.
My LO still has active periods and not active periods. I don't feel her every hour. Just try and focus on that. If you are feeling movement that's a good thing. I would worry if you didn't feel something everyday.
As far as discharge goes, as long as its not pink or brown I wouldn't worry. I have a ton everyday and my doctor wasn't at all concerned.

Meimsx no more
Thx ladies! Iam freaking out a little over here. I'm at work so laying down and dopplers aren't really an option. I do have a stethoscope (sp) here, and tried to hear LO through that but it didn't work (some article said it might)
Discharge- I read that if it smells like vinagear or comet at all it could be ambiotic fluid and mine looks normal but does have a vinagear smell to it so i total freaked out again. they say "abnormal smell" I dont think it smells really pungent just a tad vinagear-y... is that normal? ill have to call my OB i think.....
I didnt smell my underwear a lot pre- preg so I'm not sure what normal smell is... which seems very embarrasing.

My prenatal class instructor told me amniotic fluid smells sweet
Some days my LO has crazy movements, other days he's quieter, more like what you describe "some movement". Yesterday he was kicking me so much it hurt. Today I've felt him a bit here and there but so far, he's giving me a break. Bottom line: like your doc said, as long as your feeling some movement, it's fine.
As for the discharge: I haven't been able to go a day without a liner in over a month now. It's normal though. If you're worried about it, call your doc. They can do a quick swab and make sure it's not amniotic fluid.
well, that makes me feel better!
hahahah :::::laughs at self for ambiotic:::::
I can't believe thats what i was thinking it was called! like super power juice for bionic man.
