i am 12 weeks pregnant, we just had sex, and he left it in, when it came out it was pink and im cramping, i have a fetal doppler and we found the heartbeat straight away, whats happening?

21 weeks and baby's random movements?

I’m 21 weeks and I just noticed baby moving a bit more often. However yesterday I felt him practically all day, yet today I maybe felt 2 kicks and that’s all. Like total silence all day. I have a fetal doppler and his heart is nice and strong, but why the moving one day and not the next?

Your experiences is greatly appreciated :)

Despite normal umbilical artery and fetal MCA doppler study & normal liquor amount, we are facing:

1. A difference of 4 weeks in FL dimensions (BPD 38wk while FL is 33wk and 6 days!!) which was a mere difference of 2 weeks @ BPD 23wk.

2. A posterior and Grade III placenta with an increase in calcification but not yet alarming.

Am I listening to the right heart?

Hi I got a fetal doppler today. I’m 18 wks and can just hear a heartbeat it’s fast but not as fast as I can remember with my first. Just wondering if it could be picking mine up down there!?
Tam- I bought a Angelsounds one from mumsnbumps.co.uk it was £27.95 x

because they couldn’t hear the heart beat with the fetal Doppler, at my next appointment i will be 14 weeks and like 3 days, will they give me another one??

According to this heartrate chart, the rate will decrease from 155-195 bpm at 9 weeks to 120-160 bpm by 12 weeks. I’m wondering if this is always true. What is/was your baby’s heartrate between this time? Thanks!

I am 12 weeks pregnant and you can’t tell I’m pregnant at all!! I went to the E.R. the other night because my OB office wouldn’t accept me as a patient until I received my physical medical card even though I had my temporary one, which makes no difference.
The ER Doc. did an exam on me and could not feel my uterus on top of my belly and even inside of me. He said it was so soft. He questioned me over and over again to make sure I have had a positive pregnancy test. I have had 3 positive tests. He did a HCG level blood test and that came out low so the next step was to do an ultrasound because with my uterus still being so small he said there was no point in the heart doppler. He thought I have already miscarried or was going to.

So I went for the ultrasound this morning and the results were:
*My Amniotic Fluid is decreased
*The Fetal Heart rate was 144 bpm
*BUT NO MOVEMENT AT ALL!!!

I am going to my OB on Monday to talk to the doctor because he wasn’t in today, but before I can go in and tell him what is actually going on I want to hear feedback from other people because I don’t know what this could mean. A heartbeat, but no fetal movement. ?!?!? Please someone tell me SOMETHING!

Thanks.
I def. am 12 weeks. It showed it on the ultrasound and I did drink a 16 oz. bottle of OJ before I went in. They told me to. But I have 2 other beautiful babies and I have to be strong for them. Thank you all for your answers.

I have measured my babies heart beat at between 85-90 beats per minute which I know is low at this stage, and low heartbeat is a very high indicator of imminent miscarriage, I have expressed my concerns to my doctor who frustratingly says they dont measure fetal heartbeats on the NHS that early and I must be hearing my own heartbeat.. both rythyms sound very different to me, and in very different locations,(babies heartbeat above pelvic bone) and my doppler is a good quality one, Im going for a private scan on thursday as I am so worried..maybe Im going nuts, maybe it is my own heartbeat? sounds unlikley to me, hope someone can throw light on this. Thanks

He said he could "hear" that the placenta was anterior and that this might be why we couldn’t find the heart beat of the baby. However, he then ordered an ultrasound. I am feeling very negative and afraid to face tomorrow. Have any of you had fetal heart tones not heard this far into pregnancy? - This was my first appointment, so our first attempt to hear anything. With my previous babies, we could always get heart tones via doppler by 10-12 weeks.

Im 18 weeks pregnant? No fetal movement!?

I am currently 18 weeks pregnant. This is my second pregnancy. I am a plus size model. LOL But seriously I have a little cushion. I am concerned about having little to no fetal movement. I felt the baby flutter a small amount around 16 weeks. But I have not felt many flutters in week 17 and 18. Is there something wrong with my baby? I have rented a doppler and I have a strong heart beat, but he or she just won’t move. Or is it just too early. Y did I feel flutters earlier and not now. Please help! I thought that when it is your second pregnancy you should feel movement earlier.
