So, feeling better now. I drank a little bit of OJ (not too much - don't want to throw off my blood sugar) and watched him move some more, so I'm OK now. Stay tuned for the next exciting freak-out...
Until then, everyone have a very merry Christmas. I wish you all peace and hope for the coming year, and I thank God for each one of you. I don't know you in real life, but the support and comfort I feel from you all is amazing. Thank you. God bless you all.

anna, i was a nervous wreck for months with hans - i went to the hospital in the middle of the night multiple times - and i didn't even understand what *could* happen. i don't think there's any way around that fear. hang in there.

Cat, Galloping had this to say:
he's running out of space to move around... it's normal to feel him less or differently as he gets bigger. hang in there, you'll make it. but certainly trust your gut and call the doctor if/when you need reassurance.

Jillian had this to say:
At this stage, not only is he running out of room in some positions, but he still has enough room to get into positions where you won't feel him move as much due to his orientation, your body shape etc...
In a few weeks he will be big enough so that he won't have so much room to kick and punch, but equally, you will be able to feel him more evenly where ever he sits.
And call whomever you like when you like. You need to keep your blood pressure down too after all!-
Catherine had this to say:
Do not EVER squash the urge to call the doctor. Do not EVER put yourself into a "crazy" category. Do not EVER just think "he's running out of room" or "he's just resting up." (If I had only called...)

Jillian had this to say:
And yeah - what Catherine said - I went to L&D twice towrads the end of my second pregnancy and although she was fine they found that I was having some heart problems.
I also played up until I got more detailed scans as I was like you not putting on any weight and couldn't see the harm in double checking things. In the end, these people get PAID (either by you or your insurance) to indulge your fears and treat them seriously.-
cat had this to say:
So glad he's fine and you are ok too. Agreed call anytime you feel like something is up. They work for you and it's always ok to call if you need to. Hoping he keeps moving along and you are ok.

Roxanne had this to say:
I'm so glad everything is okay.
I agree with Catherine. Don't ever doubt yourself. If you are worried, call. It does no harm.
