So much anxiety
The anxiety is so real 😔 I just reached my third trimester and I'm so worried about her movements. I feel her moving a lot, but she's been on the quieter side the last couple of days and I'm thinking it's maybe because I've been moving less too? Usually at work, I'm very active but I'm on March Break this week so I haven't been at work and not very active. Don't get me wrong, she moves and I feel like I'm being a bit paranoid and maybe because I'm not working, I'm focusing more on her movements. Not being preoccupied with work is not good for me..😵😵💫 Guess I'm looking for some reassurance. Anyone else having really bad anxiety and paranoia about movements.

I don't even count for that reason. I'll severely overthink it and stress myself out and stress isn't good for the baby. I just try to pay attention daily if he's active a couple times during the day. If you're concerned it's better to get checked out. When I speak to mothers of adult children they tell me they never had scans a lot of them or kick counts.

I definitely have been struggling with the same thing. I’ve been only allowing myself to track once a day. 10 movements in 2 hours. Most the time it doesn’t even take 20 minutes for the 10 movements and that helps ease the anxiety.
