Anyone with UD have the baby moving just on one side? (preg ment)

[Guest guest]

Hello,

I have UD and I'm 27 weeks preg right now. I'm at the stage where I

am feeling the baby move a lot. The funny thing is that it always

seems to be on the left side (he is in my left uterus). My stomach

has gotten big all over and I have heard that the pregnant side just

takes up all of the room but it really does seem like the baby is

sticking to one side. Had anyone had a similar experience? I'm not

worried, it's just interesting.

Another funny thing. I just had an ultrasound and the baby is

measuring two weeks ahead! That was the last thing that I expected

with UD. This whole thing has been such an adventure!

hi sarah,

im ~25 wk preg in an SU (partially communicating/not

resected) with baby in the left cavity. when i am

standing up i look like a normal pregnant person (big

all over)- but when i lie down flat, my stomach looks

like a mountain, with a pointed peak on the left side

(!) all kicks are felt and seen on the left side

(expect for those down near my cervix- which feel more

toward the right, actually). all braxton hicks -

clearly like a hard ball on the left. the right

unoccupied cavity is still seen on ultrasound.

im glad your baby is growing stong! (2 weeks ahead! go

baby!) may i ask how often you are getting fetal

measurements? they have been so focused on the length

of my cervix during U/S my doc hasnt ordered any fetal

measurements for weeks- maybe since around wk 18- but

id really like to know that hes growing ok.

does anyone know what the standard is for MA folks in

that regard? i would think growth restriction might

be of concern and thereforoe provide rationale for

more U/S fetal monitoring than is typical.

best,

heidi

I am UU and my baby was 99.9% of the time on the right side. I

mentioned it to the OB and Peri constantly, but they didn't say much

about it. I felt the baby on the left only twice. (And one of

those times on the left, the baby shifted and was lying transverse

and had my Drs. a little on edge...) Anyways, it was always the one

side - and sometimes you could see it - the baby would be all balled

up and pressing out! I did notice the baby would move a little to

the center if I was lying on the other side (must have been the

gravity!)

The Drs. were curious as to seeing my anatomy, but I think the c-

section was a bit disappointing in that it looked fairly normal

despite the UU.

Wonder if your baby will be left-handed !

Hope everything is going smoothly for you and your pregnancy.

Judith,

Hi

Thanks for your reply. That really is an amazing coincidence. Let's

keep each other posted on how the preg. is going. Is this your first?

Where are you located? I'm in Chicago.
