Well, I made it another week. Not without a few grey hairs from little man making me worried, I am sure though. His movement has decreased a lot since last Friday. I called my OB yesterday, and she doesn't seem concerned. She said it could be due to him growing or the placement of the placenta. I used to be able to feel him move throughout the day, but now it seems to be just a night when I am laying down. I even tried to trick him to move by drinking a "mega mocha" cappachino on the way home from the in-laws Sunday. Nothing :-( So needless to say, my doppler is getting used a lot more now. His heart rate is in the 140s, which is good. Just wish I could relax and not worry about him so much!!!

When Colin started getting bigger, I didn't feel as much movement either. My SIL, who is a nurse, said to drink really cold water and lay down for a while to see if movement increases. I've heard OJ can help too, because it has some sugar in it. I'm glad Noah is growing and thriving :) You're getting closer, girl! Only 9 weeks away from how far along I was when Colin was born!
