Back massage while laying on belly

Hi girls just a quick question my back was really hurting last night so my boyfriend gave me a back massage I don’t think he was putting much pressure on the lower back but I was laying down on my belly and I’m 19+3 days now ever since I’ve felt him he’s been kicking on the clock 8:20 every night and there is nothing today and I’m just really paranoid. Could that back massage have done something 😭

It’s unlikely but if you are worried about reduced movements then call triage

What’s triage?

@Alex if you look on your badger notes there should be a number for triage. It is usually located at where you go for scans / see your midwife. It is a 24/7 call line for any issues you may have

Ohhh okay thank you so much x he has started kicking now I was poking my belly Lowe down where I usually feel him but he’s more on the left and up so I’m just glad to feel him 💗

The advice is usually if you're comfortable lying on your stomach you're probably still safe to do so as baby is well cushioned. But at nearly 20 weeks I'd probably stop tbh and time to start getting used to lying on your side now as you approach third trimester. You can still have a massage on your side ☺️

I’ve been going for massages since second trimester as it’s something I always did before pregnancy that I wanted to keep up. My lady just gets me to lay in the recovery position and we put loads of cushions around me to make it comfy for me & bump 😍😂
