From now til saturday is a long time to worry and worrying is not good for you or for the baby. It doesn't hurt at all to call the doctor and discuss over the phone, and if you still don't feel better ask for a same day visit. if you wait and something really is wrong: that is much worse than just assuming everything is ok and doing nothing. it's your body and your baby. so call the doctor....
good luck...

I would say not to worry too much about it, every baby is different but most go through stages where they're so active YOU can't function, other times you're active and you don't feel them as much. If you're going for an ultrasound and you are still feeling flutters and movements then try not to stress out over it. Good luck to you!

Sometimes the baby "takes a break" from the usual movement. This means they are going through a growth spurt. If you are concerned, drink something caffinated, and lay down on your left side...If the baby doesn't move, you should consult your doctor. But if you are feeling fluttering, then everything should be fine.

If you are really worried about this go to labor and delivery and have them do a none stress test. If I remember right, if your baby doesn't move at all for 24 hours you need to go and get checked out A.S.A.P. Drink some fruit juice and see if this wakes up the baby. You can also put an alarm clock up to your stomach and see if this will wake up the baby.

I am glad you are going for an ultra sound just to make sure she is okay. Just keep talking to your baby and singing to her and patting her. Encourage her to move. Some babies are just not as active especially as they grow bigger but you should feel more definitive movements as you progress in pregnancy.

Drink a glass of juice and wait about a half an hour. If you dont feel anything then, I would call the doctor.
