Worried about baby and need advice asap pls

Hi, I’m 34 weeks pregnant with my second baby and in the hospital atm. I came in as I had some bleeding for 3 days and baby was super active for two days and then today she barely moved. When I came in they put me on the monitor and the baby’s heartbeat was 175-190 for the whole hour and at some point it was dipping to 50. The monitor alarm was going off the whole time I was plugged to it. They had a gyno come see me who checked my cervix and said she wasn’t worried and then another doctor came who said she was worried about the baby’s heart rate. She said that she would get me off the monitor for a few hrs then put me back on it and that if the heart rate was still doing the same then we would discuss our next options and possible delivery of the baby. I am super worried and I’ve had this bad feeling for 3 days now. I feel like if they’re not happy with the baby’s heart rate they should just get her out to be safe? Why wait? Now I’m so worried honestly.

I would ask for the doctor to come bsxk explain what is going on and ask to be put bsxk on monitor. Speak to the midwife and just explain that you feel something isn’t right xx

@Amey I spoke to the midwife, she seems quite worried herself but she did say they will put me back on the monitor for 11 and then assess the situation from there. I feel so bad because I’ve had this bad feeling for 3 days and ignored it until now. Just glad I got it checked and I just hope everything’s okay with baby.

Don’t feel bad you’re there now and that’s all that matters. It’s such a scary time when your on your own in hospital just remember you know your body and if not your happy just keep advocating for yourself and say you want a doctor brought back in I’m not expert when I was 35 weeks with my first my waters went I was in hospital for 5 days then went into labour i ended up with an infection and baby’s heart rate went very high. I know there is lots of reasons it can happen but you know when somethings not right mums instincts knows best x

@Amey yeah I think I’m gonna trust my gut and make sure I get some answers, thank you x

I really hope everything is ok and they give you the answers and some idea of what is going on. Have they ran any tests or done a scan or anything xx

Have they offered you a scan? Similar happened to me and I was offered a scan the next day after the monitor didn’t show any issues. I was 38 weeks so a bit further along, but I would definitely push for a scan in this case!

@Courtenay I did have a scan but they just wanted to check that baby’s head was down and they checked her heart.

How is everything ? Xx
