Laura, when I was at the Feto-maternal unit the other day I mentioned that baby was moving but quiter than normal. the midwife asked if I'd felt 10 movements per day which I had so she said that was fine. My community midwife always says that if you have any concerns at all about movements then to ring up to go in to be checked, she won't tell us how many to count as you know what is normal for your baby. I'd keep an eye on things and if you're not happy with how much baby is moving then ring back and say you've had a bleed and now have reduced movements. I'm sure they're probably right and its nothing to worry about but I know its very hard not to! Also, you could always ring your own midwife back who told you you should go in to be checked and tell her what they said, she might push for them to see you if you're not happy with not getting checked out.

I am sure you are right and everything is ok. I wasnt too worried till I spoke to the first lady! Def. had more than 10 movements already today so will try and relax One thing I have learnt is I should keep my notes on me, no idea what my blood group is or my hospital number!!

Congratulations Carmilla!

Another emotional one here, every time I think 'we're having a girl' I burst into happy floods of tears!

What does transverse mean?

i think it means the baby is facing your hip.

Helpful, maybe its on the same magical mystery delivery van as my pram! You need yours more urgently than me though!

Proper transverse is when the baby is left to right/right to left, across your tummy (hip to hip) instead of up/down.
My LO was transverse mostly until about 26 weeks, before going cephalic (head down), but at some point before she arrived, she turned her head transverse which is why i ended up with forceps delivery, as she couldnt pass unassisted down with her head at that angle.

Kirs scarily similar to me. I ended up with forceps for the same reason!

:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: I'm soooo annoyed with myself! Have left half my lunch at home!! I can't even go get anything as only discovered this after getting back from popping out to Argos for my dad! So have just had a small baked potato with nothing on it and some pineapple that looked rather past its best! I'm still hungry!
