fell down stairs
I fell down stairs yesterday afternoon and went to get checked but they only listened to heart beat no ultrasound, and I still have not felt movement and its been over 24 hours...and a lot of coming and going sharp pain too, Is there a way to demand an ultrasound? Had an abruption with my first one that only was detectable by ultrasound fetal heart beat remained fine until the final abruption accured so worried this time around

I'm not sure you can demand but you can certainly keep hassling the GP / midwife until you get what you want. I would suggest heading to the GP first thing tomorrow as an emergency appointment as they can refer you for an US, tell them what happened and your background and that you have felt no movement since then and they should refer you. Good luck I hope you get checked out properly soon. X
Are you based in America? X
I'm in the uk so things are quite different here. If you're having pain could you bypass her and go to the emergency room and ask them to check you out? Would your insurance cover that? If not how about a private scan somewhere? X
Im so sorry im not sure what else to suggest especially not knowing how the system works in the US. Could you find a different dr to see? X
Good news there hun, sorry your drs are so rubbish fingers crossed the rest of your pregnancy will run smoothly. X
