Way to freak me out MW

Had my 36 week check up this morning. MW used the doppler to check hr and apparently it sounded faster than it was registering so we moved rooms and she hooked me up to the NST machine just to double check LOs hr. Well, apparently it was registering right but after pokes and prodes and whatnot she wasn't moving and there was no change in hr. After 20 minutes there was still no change in hr. So a "double check" turned into an hour of actually going through the NST. After a glass of water and moving me from sitting to lying on my side there was finally moments of acceleration in hr and everything started to look good. But by then I had already started to imagine all the things that could be going wrong. Being up all night with insomnia left me mentally mighty crazy and delirious with horrible mental images. Ahh!! I think it would have been better had my MW not had a worried look on her normally very positive face. Apparently there were also steady contractions (that I for once didn't feel) but they were very small. Whatever that means. 

Either way, all is good now but I sure was freaked out for a good portion of the morning

    Oh gosh, that does sound scary.  I had a similar experience with DS and the nurse totally freaked me out because she started asking tons of questions like "When exactly was the last time you felt him move? Within the last day?  Have you been bleeding?" Luckily he was fine, just sleeping and positioned funny.  

    I'm glad everything is ok!

    Yeah around this time 35 weeks with DD I freaked out over not feeling her move and couldn't get her too.  They had me on the machine for over an hr and even with apple juice she wasn't doing much.  Ended up she was in a deep sleep and once she woke was bouncing off my ute for the rest of the day.  Still, the panic was no joke.

    With the insomnia last night she was raving for hours! I'm not surprised she was asleep at the time I went in. Frustrating!
