High PI and no movement

[Cheyne3]

Hi there,

My baby is not moving anymore. I have reported this to the MFAU and my consultant and everyone I can get to listen. They just put a trace on me and this stimulates a little movement and so they say all is fine.

All my scans show good growth. However the last scan at 28 weeks showed a Uterine Artery Doppler reading of: 'PI: 1.20, EDF: positive but minimal'. They didn't tell me at the time that this is bad. I have only discovered it tonight by googling it. They just sent me home saying that they would arrange weekly 'reassurance' scans to put my mind at rest about the lack of movement. It is Friday in the morning and I probably I won't be able to get hold of anyone about this until Monday.

My PI of 1.20 at 28 weeks is double what it was (0.6) at 24 weeks. My baby only moves about once a day when he has what I can only describe as a 'seizure' - a shaking violently and rhythmically for about 8 seconds. I have told them this too and they didn't take it seriously.

I don't know what to do.

I'm so scared.

What is happening to my baby?

hi

when i was pregnant we had to do a kick chart and if there was hardly any movement they took it very seriously.......

I am sorry they are not taking you seriously ....my mum had a still born baby at 9 months ....he was perfect .....they think the placenta came away from the womb.   She felt no movement for a few days and thought it was just too big to move .....her doctor was rubbish too!!

The baby does kick violently towards the end lol and do 360 degree somersaults .  

I would definately seek a second opinion  

Post how you get on
