Bad cold - haven’t felt babies move today
I’ve had a super bad cold for several days now. I’m meeting with my PCP tomorrow. I’ve had a super bad cough and haven’t been able to breathe through my nose. I have not felt my babies move at all since this morning 4am, it’s currently 2pm. Am I being too worried? I am 21w4d with anterior placenta but I usually feel them when I lay down quite often.

Hey mama. I’d say it’s normal I’m about to be 21 weeks and I’ve been feeling my baby move but sometimes I don’t. Babies don’t constantly move till around 25-29 weeks that’s when you really start feeling them often. It’s okay to feel concerned especially if this is your first 🤍 try calling your doctor and asking maybe they may wanna see you before tomorrow. It never hurts to call and ask your care team
Ope jk that's too early for consistent movement. I just realized you said 21w4d, I didn't even feel big movements until 23 weeks with my twins, and nothing is consistent until 28-29 weeks, in OB we don't even recommend kick counts start until after 28 weeks, so I think it's all good 🫶🏻

Drink some cold juice and lay on your side, and then try to get 10 movements within 2 hours, if you can't get your kick count then definitely go in 🫶🏻
