my wife is 28 weeks pregnant and hasnt had the rhogam shot she was going to get it today but they found antibodies they dont know yet if it is the good antibodies or the bad antibodies. If it is the bad antibodies what will the doctor do? could it harm my son? should we be worried?

you should relax…im sure anit bodies are the good ones to have ..
i have never had a rubella shot …i have massaive amounts of anit bodies from measles as a kid

im sure shes not the forst one the dr has seen and they will take what action is needed to ensure your son is delivered safely :)

congrats tho

Also some days i go hours without feeling her move. I dont know if this is normal. It feels very inconsistent. This is my first pregnancy so i dunno what is normal… please offer me advice. thank you.

I think it’s fine. My baby doesn’t move constantly and he’ll sleep for hours at a time and I wont feel him. Also I’m 37wks and he still had no "regular or normal" patterns as to when he’s awake and when he likes to sleep. He just does whatever he wants (lol). He was still kind of quiet for me at 28wks. As long as you’re feeling your baby throughout the day, everyday now then all is well. Some docs have mothers do "kick counts", but if your doc hasn’t told you to do those then don’t worry about them. As long as she’s moving she’s ok. Your little one will start to sleep a lot more as these last few weeks go by. If it’ll make you feel better you can go into L&D and they’ll check her. She sounds totally normal to me though. Congrats on your little sweet pea :)

It’s not very heavy. Is this normal?
i haven’t had sex in weeks as I had a cerclage placed at 21 weeks. I don’t have any other sympotoms and the amount is not a lot/

Brown discharge usually indicates "old" blood… like blood that you’ve produced in the last couple of days that is just now being expelled.
Have you had sex within, like, the last 3 days? That’s usually the number one cause of spotting. It’s cervical bleeding, from your cervix being over-sensitive and filled with extra blood-vessels from pregnancy, and can bleed due to friction or constant touching (like from sexual activity) and there is no harm to you or the baby.
The other cause of bleeding is placental. This is where the actual placenta bleeds (for various reasons) and there is a 1 in 3 chance of miscarriage with placental bleeding.
I wouldn’t worry too much – unless you’re bleeding enough to soak two maxi pads (a general rule of my doctor), then it shouldn’t be any cause for concern (yeah right, right?? :-) ).
Just go to your doctor and get checked out if you’re really freaked out. But I’d say, at 28 weeks, you’ll know if you’re miscarrying .. I’m also 7 months and your baby should weigh about 2 lbs and be about 14 inches long. If you were to expell that, you’d notice!
Good luck, sweetie… just remember to take care of yourself!

yes, some babies settle quite low quite early.

Is this your first baby?- are you feeling any contractions along with the pressure?

the best thing to do is to ask your Midwife or Dr. about this- and if you’re really concerned, don’t wait until your next appointment- Call today.

Moms usually KNOW if something is really wrong- Trust your gut.

That could just be the baby moving down. The baby is able to move all over now. I am also 28 weeks and when she hangs out at the bottom it makes me look like I am carrying lower then when she is towards my ribs. She also stays under my belly button for the most part. She only wonders every now and then.

I am so confused And if I am 28 weeks does this mean the baby will be huge?

your baby just may be measuring slightly big at the moment. it could mean you have a bigger baby, i wouldnt say huge or you might just have he/she a bit early. i wouldnt worry about it.x

I’m glad I caught this question before it runs out of time to answer….4 mins left!!!

Okay, it is ABSOLUTELY alright to dye your hair after your first trimester.
Being in a well ventilated area is a great idea, even outside if it’s nice! You should use Garnier Nutrisse as it’s all natural at-home dye, if you have not dyed your hair already!

It is perfectly safe.

It hurts when i roll over onto my other side and when im getting out of bed. Is this normal what could it be? Im not bleeding or anything.

1) If you’re worried, call your doctor.

2) It sounds normal. The baby is growing and your ligaments are stretching. Just take it easy, stay hydrated and rest until your next appointment. Remember that you have a LOT of nerves for the baby to put pressure on – when you roll over is it a sharp or dull pain?

Nonetheless, I wouldn’t worry too much.
