UPDATE #2, after dr, includes a Kelly story

I'm 26 weeks. I have not felt the baby move all day. Last night I had an asthma attack because the cleaning guy at work decided it was the day to begin spraying a new chemical ALL OVER. I begged him to stop, but he wouldn't. No one knows why he sprayed so much. I'm completely freaking out now!! When do I call the doctor? I have felt the baby so much and now not at all. Chat Icon

UPDATE:
I am completely freaking out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He's not doing anything. I called the doctor and I'm going in at 11 for an ultrasound. I need prayers ladies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

UPDATE #2:
Thank you all so much!!! They rushed me right in and the baby was not moving, but the heartrate was fine. Thank God!!!!!! Chat Icon They were concerned with no movement and I was brought in for the non-stress test. They monitored contractions (which nearly made DH faint because he was thinking labor).

She then asked me if I had taken an oral steroid. I panicked because I had for the asthma attack and I said 'But you guys said I could take it if I needed it!' She said it was fine to take, with no long effects on the baby, but they are known to make babies sleep. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon They monitored me longer and DH stepped out of the room to call his job.

This is when the Kelly story begins: I find out my DH also called my job telling them he never wants the cleaning guy near me again. (I also found out 4 of my co-workers got sick from it.) It seems that 'polite' threats were made by DH and now the vice-president of the company has been brought in. Chat Icon I feel like I'm in Goodfellas. Chat Icon He's my Ray Liota!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon So, who knows what will happen when I go into work at 4.

Again, thanks so much ladies!!!!!!!!!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Do I start to panic?!?!?!

try to relax..i know it's very hard when you are worried like this though. i know how you feel b/c it took a very long time for my baby to move regularly and frequently. while i was in my 20's weeks i would go hours and sometimes a whole day w/o any movement. until i hit 31 weeks or so i didn't feel the baby everyday. try to lay down after drinking something sweet (soda worked with me) and see if you feel anything. also poke around a little or tap your belly and see if you get responses. this sometimes worked for me but don't worry if it doesn't! if you are still concerned tomorrow dont hesitate to call your dr. especially b/c of the chemicals sprayed at work. how long were you exposed to them? were you in a well ventilated place at least? i truly think that is not why you're not feeling the baby so try not to worry Chat Icon

Re: Do I start to panic?!?!?!

I've been at work all night. I tried a can of coke around 6, then ate dinner. At around 11:30 I had some orange juice. He's been moving constistantly until today. Thank you for responding. I know most everyone is sleeping.

Re: Do I start to panic?!?!?!

I have found that at this stage they can still move around so much that sometimes they move into a position that you dont feel them as much...(like their back is facing out and their legs kick your spine)..perhaps that is what your little guy is doing...Im sure everything is fine..Keep us posted.

I'm almost 26 weeks and some days I feel the baby soooo much and some days really not at all. Espcially if I am busy I don't feel it at all some days. I asked the dr. about this and he said it is perfectly fine that the baby is still moving I just am not feeling/noticing it.

If you are nervous - def. call the dr. about the chemical but I am sure you are fine Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Do I start to panic?!?!?!

At 23 weeks I had a 36 hour period of not feeling the baby. Called doc and he said I definately need to be checked out. Everything turned out find..found out Ihad anterior placenta which makes feeling movement more difficult...Doc said if I go 24 hrs again I should call even though everything is probably fine...My advise...call...Hope all is well..send us an update when you can.

Re: Do I start to panic?!?!?! (UPDATE Thurs Morning)

I completely understand how you feel. I am almost 29 weeks and did not feel the baby move for 2 days. Juice, soda, pizza (which always works), licorice were all tried and nothing. It took a chocolate bar yesterday for me to get 4 good kicks.

Wishing you lots of luck - please keep us posted Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Glad you're going to the Dr., for your peace of mind. This happened to me 4 weeks ago, when I was 32 weeks. I got nervous, made an appointment, had a sono and a non-stress test, and she was fine (thankfully!), just being lazy for a few days after being super active for about a week before. It's totally understandable to be nervous, but I'm sure everything is fine.

Keep us posted!

I'm sure everything is fine. I have had a few 'scares' with this as well (from about mid-20 weeks, to now, mid-30s) and each time everything is okay.

Let us know!! Chat Icon
