When your baby comes too early
We've all heard the term 'Premmie" and we've seen the little babies in the special care nurseries with their Naso-gastric tubes, little caps on their heads and surrounded by monitors. It's a frightening image but sometimes it always seems to happen to someone else - until it doesn't.This podcast is all about defining what prematurity is. It covers:
• The known reasons for why a baby comes early.
• The signs that your baby might be coming early.
• The treatment your baby would need if they’re born early
• The current medical thinking about preventing prematurity.We also talk about what we can all do to support mums of preterm babies.

What are normal baby movements?
Baby movements is your baby’s way of telling you all is well. A healthy baby should move. Imagine if you were really sick, you would still move around the bed and get up several times a day to go the toilet. If you lay in bed for many hours, not moving at all, you would probably be dreadfully ill.
A baby that’s doing nothing is not normal.
And why are we so insistent about baby movements? If we look at unexpected stillbirths in the third trimester, an alarming number of those stillbirths are preceded by a couple of days of decreased or absent fetal movements.
This podcast covers:
• How picking your baby’s pattern of movement is important
• Why we moved away from ‘kick charts’
• Why going to sleep on absent fetal movements is not a strategy
• What to do if you think you have reduced or absent fetal movements
• Why a baby ‘slowing’ down at term is not a sign you are going into labour.If you have a question you want answered, please leave your message on speakpipe to be chosen for Dr Pat to answer during a Q&A:
