contraction & baby movement

I've been getting contractions all morning they don't hurt too much and are about 5-7 mins part. Mucas plug has not come out and waters have not broken. I have not felt the baby move since contractions started. 4 hours. What should I do? Should i feel the baby move in between conractions?????? Is this false labour ???????


Please help i'm very worried

If you are not feeling the baby move...don't even bother calling the doc....go straight to labor & delivery.  A lot of people don't feel baby moving during labor...BUT...I didn't feel my first son after going into labor and I waited til my contractions became regular before going in and there was no heartbeat.  I don't want to scare you, but it's better safe than sorry.

You can also try doing the fetal kick counts...

generally yes, you will feel your baby move in between contractions.  Is this normally the time of day that your baby is active?  Try drinking some water and laying on your left side for awhile!!  I would also call the doc or labor and delivery to see if they want to check you out!!  How far along are you?

Call your doctor - they will probably want you to come in.
