Basically pregnancy is a worry mine is that I am 31 wees pregnant and I rarely feel the baby move and apparently I am meant to feel it occasionally! I am sure it will be fine but I am a worrier!

I'm into my 16th wk, and I can't help but think something is wrong w/my baby! Last time I had an ultrasound (about 3 wks ago), baby was moving frantically, and the heartbeat was normal. I still feel no actual movement, and when I use my own doppler, I can never pick up a heartbeat! My belly doesn't seem to be growing @ all!! My friends all give my belly disappointing stares, leaving me very paranoid.

I'm 17 weeks pregnant. A couple of weeks ago, I was feeling hungry and my belly seemed bigger but now I don't feel hungry anymore and my belly looks smaller. Also, I don't feel the baby's kick yet.

I am just starting my fourth month. Everything has been great till this morning when I got the scare of my life.I had drunk a cup of coffee to keep away headaches; then suddenly I got the feeling of needing to have a bowel movement so I got up to go to the bathroom and right at the door I felt faint and like I was not there. I could feel my legs and arms shaking uncontrollably so I grasped onto the door frame and managed to sit down. Then as soon as the spasm and faintness came, it went away leaving me scared. I called my doctor's nurse and she stated that my blood pressure dropped suddenly and the pons nerve went errattic due to low blood sugar or being dehydrated. She told me to take it easy and to eat and drink plenty of fluids, and to call if it happens again.
