celestone shots

[expectingtwins2013]

Im almost 34 Weeks with twins and recieved a celestone shot yesterday and am going to the second dose today, but the babies seem to be drastically less active since receiving the first shot. Anyone else have these shots and did you experience decreased fetal movement?

Thanks, I talked to my Dr today when I went to get the second shot and was told that the shots can lower their heartrate for about 48 hours causing decreased movement but tp call if there still not moving after thay

I would not wait to call your doctor. It's better to be on the safe side by calling them then waiting. Always listen to your gut feeling!! The steroids can be given in up to three doses. Congrats on your twins.
