I am 37 weeks pregnant and have not felt the baby move for a while but feel bubbling in my belly where I should feel the baby. Is this just gas or should I be concerned? I have been having contractions off and on the past month and have a c-section set for the 29 of this month.

Hi,

Welcome to the ehealthforum and I am really glad to help you out. If you are unable to feel any movement of the baby, then you should get it evaluated immediately from a gynecologist. Investigations like fetal Doppler or ultrasound need to be done.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations, and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care.
