Less movement at 27 weeks?!

Question

My boy was moving heaps last week but over the past couple days ive barely felt anything :-( always gets me worried. I have a doppler and his heartbeat was still going strong last night which is good. Is this normal?

Answer

This is around the time where baby is getting so big that movements are less frequent since it's running out of room! So normal, no worries :-)

Answer

I think you feel them flipping around less as they get bigger.

Answer

I just read an article today about how the most movement occurs between 24-27 weeks and then starts to slow down. Baby is getting bigger and there is less room in there so you are feeling less of the somersaults, etc ;)

Answer

If the heartbeat is still strong, I wouldn't worry. Babies sometimes just change their cycles.

Answer

I haven't experienced this personally but I would call your doctor just in case.
