    So All of a sudden for the past 2 days, I wasn't feeling baby move..I tried, water, OJ, laying on my left...and nothing...so I panicked, called the OB and they had me (and all 3 of my kiddies) come on in... and of course (Thank God!!) the baby is perfect!
    The little rat( <_< ) even kicked the minute they put the doppler on my belly!! AHHHHH! It was a great sound though! And the boys were so excited to hear her heart beat. He said she is just in a really weird, low position and hiding behind the placenta, so it's just hard to feel her move. Her heart rate was great, at 146, and I am measuring exactly 24 weeks...despite all the weight I am packing on!!! :blink: .
    And I saw a new OB (the only one I haven't seen yet) and he is also on board for the whole VBAC thing, so assuming baby is head down, no matter who delivers her, I should get my wish!!!

    I know I am rambling, but I was so scared I was going to lose this baby too, now I am gushing with releif !!!! I hate to wish away my last pg, but I will just be so happy when I can hold this little angel!!!

    I am so glad everything is fine. I know it is scarey when they are less active.

    I'm so glad things are ok with the baby. Good for you though, in calling the dr. asap about that. It's amazing how the baby can find a hiding place in such a small area!

    Oh, and if your dr. isn't worried about your weight gain...don't give it a second thought. From your reply to one of my earlier posts you started out your pregnancy at a great weight...especially considering your height.

    And I know exactly what you mean about not wanting to wish away your last pregnancy! I only have a few weeks to go but I'm trying to be patient and enjoy this one last time!

    Glad everything turned out fine. I think it's hard not to worry even when you've never had a bad experience...and so much more so when you have lost a baby.

    I had the same horrible feeling with my twins. I was feeling them, but not as much. So as soon as the doctor put the ultrasound wand on me, he asked.. "you mean you can't feel that?" Nope, they were facing each other, kicking each other! We even saw one of them land a good punch on the other! Glad everything is alright and I Hope you get your VBAC too!

    I am so glad everything is okay. I feel like you. I hate to wish away my last pregnancy, but I am so ready for it to be done. I hate all the worry that comes along with expecting.
