I m in my 28th week and a couple nights ago I felt a sharp (not painful though) sensation that sort of felt like my bladder being squeezed. It was in the middle of the night so I got up and went to the bathroom. I had a few more feelings like that the next day. Ever since, I ve noticed my baby s movements aren t as strong or frequent. Is there a connection; should I call my doctor? As I type this, I can feel the baby moving (I just ate lunch), but the movements aren t as strong as they normally are...
Hello, You are carrying 28 was pregnancy and feeling with less/weak baby movement. Actually baby moves in specific time/situation, and you have to feel it properly. You can assess it by DFMC or Daily Fetal Movement Count which is 10 per hr. If you feel less than 10 moves/hr for 1-2 days or more, you need to consult with your doctor for clinical assessment along with USG lower abdomen for FPP. Take healthy diet, continue Iron/Calcium supplements, avoid stress, sleep properly with left lateral position and do periodic check up. Be well.
