Fetal movement

Lauren
I'm so confused and frustrated about how often I'm supposed to be able to feel the baby moving!!! I am almost 34w. It seems like everyone talks about how their baby moves so much, but what is that? Literally all the time? Do they ever sleep during the day? If I did kick counts twice a day when he moves, I would definitely be "in the clear" according to my OB as he does move a lot when he is awake. But it's not all day, there are definite probably hours when I don't feel him moving. Is that bad? Am I supposed to feel movement during every waking moment? Am I supposed to check for movement every hour? Just not sure how I'm supposed to gauge decreases in movement. This is my first. I'm getting so anxious and stressed reading about the still born situations. I feel like my OB thinks I'm an idiot and was kind of condescending when I brought it up last visit. 😥 looking forward to having him in my arms and actually being able to see that he's okay...
