Can someone plz tell me what can i do to chill out so i dont hurt the baby anymore

Answer 1

BREATHE ok is baby moving ok? then your baby is fine hun dont worry, maybe baby was lying awkward and could'nt pick a heartbeat up, there only small machines hun

next time you see your midwife ask her to listen to heartbeat and im sure she will find it

so dont worry ok hun as long as baby is growing and moving everything is fine

good luck

Answer 2

As a doctor myself, I can tell you to not be worried about this. It is very normal for babies to have an irregualr heartbeat in the second half or pregnancy. A normal fetal heart rate is usually between 120-160 beats per minute. Each heartbeat comes with the top part of the heart beating first, immediatly followed by the bottom part of the heart. The bottom part allows you to hear the heart beat. The most common way to hear irregular heartbeat is when the top part of the heart beats too early (premature atrial contraction). Sometimes, this is transferred to the bottom part of the heart. Other times, the communication is interrupted after a premature beat. When this communication is blocked, it causes the irregularity in the heart. This is normal for the second half of a preganancy. Usually, it goes away, but may persist after birth. From there, it usually will go away within a month. There's really no need to worry.

I'm 26 weeks pregnant. They always get the babies heart beat and the last 2 times i went, they couldn't find the heart beat. Then i went and they said it didn't sound right. But too my baby moves alot. If you stress more, the baby knows. Me and the father aren't getting along and are not together. And the baby has been kicking me non stop like hey mom, i know stress, chill out. For your baby, you need to calm down. Most likely there isn't anything wrong. Doctors are not always right. They do make mistakes and say things that aren't correct. Go to another doctor. And see what they say. Best to get a second opinion.

Answer 4

First for the sake of your baby you have to try and calm down. When you cry and aren't breathing good it's not good for the baby. If your doctor was worried he would have done more right than and there. It could have just been he was hearing a weak heartbeat or just couldn't get Doppler in the right spot, it happens all the time. That little baby inside of you is moving and if like my son, is moving whole lot. I can't tell you how many times right in the middle of the Dr counting the beats stop the baby would move. I know it's hard not to worry right now, but what always helps me not to cry is to sing to him when I'm in the shower, or just rub my belly and relax. You so much to look forward to, maybe a kick soon! Good luck:)

Answer 5

Its hard not to stress when the dr tell you something like that. Its hard not to cry....that being said, that is what you need to do, not stress and not cry. I've been there, I know what you are going through. I pray that everything is okay for you and your baby. There are some things you can do though. You can keep everything around you calm, you don't need your blood pressure going up because your stressing, it will make it worse on both of you. It could be a heart murmur, it could be anything. that's what ended up with my son. If the dr is telling you not to worry, then don't. Save your energy, you are growning a baby, it takes a toll on you physically and mentally. Take some time for yourself, read a book, take a long shower, sit down and watch some of your favorite shows or movies. Talk to your bf, whatever makes you feel better about yourself. Just remember the dr is a dr for a reason, they know when to stress and when not to, trust the dr., if he was really worried he will be upfront and honest about what is going on, just listen to the dr. If you have questions call the dr., but please for your sake and your babys you have to remain calm, getting upset and raising your blood pressure isn't anything to mess with it can make you really sick. I'll say a prayer for you. God Bless you and your family

Answer 6

First off calm down and quit stressing, because that is not helping your baby at all....when you're stressed, your baby is stressed....so stay calm.

When is your doctor having you come back? If your doctor didn't show much concern, then i would say just wait and trust your doctor. My son's heartbeat when i was pregnant with him was on and off all the time, the doctor showed concerned one minute and then have me come back and do testing and it would be normal. It can be the positioning of your baby, how much your baby is moving around at the time and so on. I would just wait, cuz at 24 weeks and if you're fairly heathly then you shouldn't have too much to be concerned about....see what happens at your next visit, or call your doctors office and see if they'll let you come in and hear the heartbeat again just to give you a peace of mind.

Answer 7

I can completely understand. If the heartbeats were normal before perhaps the girl was sleeping and at an odd angle and getting an echo. Go to the doctor to get checked up again saying you are stressed out and think your baby's life is in jeopardy from this bad result. Get help soon. My daughter tested positive for trisomy 18 and I couldn't eat,sleep or even cope for a month.I was a nervous wreck. Two weeks later I went to the hospital for exhaustion and all. Get another doctors appointment and they will completely understand your dilemma

Answer 8

First of all it is not your fault that the babies heart beat may sound abnormal...thongs happen..my sister-in-law went to the doctor for an ultrasound and they saw a black spot on his heart....twice...the doctor continued to say that they shouldn't worry about it...and they now have a healthy 7 month old little boy. If you continue to worry about it...get a second opinion or just make an appointment to have them listen again...maybe it was just a chance occurrence.

Answer 9

If your doc didn't order any test or want you to come back in a couple days from now I wouldn't worry. Sometimes doctors say things that to them are no big deal not realizing that they scare the crap out of us!! If you are very concerned call the office and speak with his nurse. She should be able to get you some reassurance.
