It wasn't for nothing. It's good to know the little one is doing well. Hang in there, she'll be here soon!

I'm sorry Mama - having spent several nights in the hospital for false alarms (2 for baby not moving), I know how very frustrating that can be! Just think, though, each step is bringing your little one closer and closer to coming out

Be glad they DIDN'T admit you. Better to go home knowing baby is okay and things aren't ready yet than to have pit. forced on you for "failure to make progress." Hang tough. Kayleigh will come soon.

I agree with that... you don't want their hands on you yet! Not if baby's not ready. yikes, there's no telling what they will do.

I'm glad all is well.

What is it w/these babies? mine wasnt moving yesterday at all either. got a little scary and then she started giving little pokes and I figured all must be ok.

hope they're just resting up for the big event!

I also think its good you went to the hospital just to be safe. I know how frustrating it is. Get a walking, keep eating, sleep when you can, hold strong girl... Kayleigh will be here very soon. How exciting...

I'm glad she's doing well, even if she's not quite on her way yet!

Do know that they may require additional monitoring in labor because of this, though. I went in a couple of weeks before I was due with DD, for the same reason, and they were really picky about my EFM strips in labor.
