Currently I am laying on my couch doing kick counts with Walker. He has been less active the last two days (I have felt him, but not enough to make me feel comfortable). If I don't feel him move tonight, I may call my doctor tomorrow to see what they say. I'm hoping he will amp up his energy a bit.
I am slightly worried. I have been doing my research and it seems I should easily feel him 10 times in 2 hours (I am 28 weeks Wednesday). I'll update this post once those two hours are up.
It came to me the other day that motherhood is really just a big worryfest. You worry from the time that test turns positive about their well-being, what kind of mother you will be, and how you are going to afford it all. Once they are born, you worry about their health, if they are reaching the milestones the books say they should, and whether you are being the absolute best mother you can be. Worry really is love in this situation. So, I will result in worrying, laying here on my couch until I know my baby is okay.
* After three days of trying everything I could think of (including drinking mountain dew!) I drank a ton of orange juice and finally got him to make his kick count. I am so thankful for having a healthy baby boy*
