Please tell me I'm just being crazy...
I am 28 weeks today and I am freaking out bc between yesterday afternoon and today I haven't felt much movement at all. I have an anterior placenta and have felt very light movements sporadically throughout the day, maybe like one every couple of hours. Am I just being paranoid or should I be concerned? I have a doc appt on wednesday..
Are there days where your lil one moves less frequently?

Not sure about with an anterior placenta, but you could always call the Dr. I have days where the boys move more than others. Better to be safe than sorry. Hoping you have felt the LO by now!

Try not worry! Even if the movement is light it still counts as movement. If you're concerned just call your ob!
Try drinking some oj and laying on your left side... this always worked when I was pregnant with my ds

I have an anterior placenta too. Some times i don't feel the baby for long stretches of time and other times my whole belly moves around bc the baby is moving a lot.
Some days are more active than others too. I try not to worry about it as long as I feel some movement throughout the day.

Babies have lazy days too. I've had days where I hardly felt mine at all, and I don't even have an anterior placenta.
If you're ever worried, drink a big glass of OJ and lay on your left side. Count kicks. Once Baby wakes up, he should kick a lot all at once. If the baby doesn't kick 10 times in an hour, go drink another glass of juice and try again. If you don't feel 10 kicks in that second hour, there might be a problem, and you have to call your OB.

Re: Please tell me I'm just being crazy...
I just got off the phone with my doctor for the same exact reason. I haven't really felt my twins move since last night, so I got nervous, because they are usually pretty active in the morning after breakfast.
My doctor said I should drink ice cold water and have some chocolate and see if the babies move, so I had 4 mini chocolate donuts and drank ice cold water and it worked. They are moving all around. I'm thinking maybe they were having a lazy day.
If your worried I would definitely call the doctor.
Edited for sp?

Re: Please tell me I'm just being crazy...
I called my doc and he said not to worry that as long as I feel some movement its ok, bc its still very early.
I have felt some slight movement today, very sporadically...but I cant help to still feel nervous.
Why am I such a crazy lady??!!! I am generally one of the most laid back people ever and for some reason I am just so anxious about my lil

being PG makes you anxious, not but's about it. As long as you are feeling some movement, that is GREAT!!!!
