Are They Supposed To Slow Down?
I've noticed since the night before Easter that my BH contractions have been getting intense. So much so that I'm being woke up several times a night by them. On Easter day, I had a lot of body pain mostly in my hips and lower back. The BH were intense but I only had 7 total through the day so I know it wasn't real labor. I noticed that I only felt my LO move 2-3 times and it felt like she was turning. Not kicking or having any particularly active bits of time like usual. The BH slowed down through the night and I was able to sleep. Today I have only felt 3 BH and maybe 2-3 times of her moving. Its the same though like shes rolling over but not kicking or being active. Usually I could count 3-4 times a day where she would go on a kicking spree for 10-15 minutes. I would race through the house so everyone could feel her if they wanted to. It was like clockwork. I'm starting to get nervous that shes not moving much. I calm myself cuz I do feel her when she rolls over so I'm not SUPER worried that something bad has happened. But its not the same. Its only been for the past couple days. I have a Dr appt the day after tomorrow. Should I wait and tell them about her decrease in activity? Should I go to the hospital tomorrow to get checked out even though its a day before my appt? Is it normal for activity to decrease at 36 weeks?
BTW I know that moving around can be distracting and can rock the baby to sleep but both days have been very lazy for me so I know thats not the case.
