Question

I am 28 weeks and 4 days, last week I saw my baby and he was fine. healthy. For the past two days and today he hasn't been as active but I've been really busy so I dont know it is just that. Last night he was active and throughout some of the night, as of this morning until now I've noticed I haven't felt him. I'm heading to school and wont be able to be home to lay down and feel him until another 2 hours. Is it normal? should I be concerned?

Answer

Dont worry, it’s normal for your baby to slow down in movement as they’re starting to settle! If you feel no movements at all for the majority of the day, then call your midwife. Other than that it’s normal :)

Answer

Listen to your mother’s gut instincts and if you have any doubt, call and go in. Midwives would rather see you 100 times for false alarms than you putting a visit off because you were not sure. If you felt you needed to write it here, you probably should go in to give yourself peace of mind.

Answer

Hi. Had similar worries this week - Thursday super active. Friday - Sunday morning movement was very faint and no big bouts of activity (normal get one good session a day).  Got checked by midwife on sunday and everything was regular. She thinks he had turned around to face my spine. Midwife was really nice and didnt make me feel daft - be worth calling if you dont feel babe after a relax tonight x

Did you try to have a snack lay on your side and do kick counts at some point... at 28 weeks you can’t start counting.. if I notice my baby girl is less active I just have light snack and lay on my side and she usually perks right up.. idk why but it works..

Answer

I think it’s normal. My baby girl is a day sleeper and a night kicker. I can still feel her during the day she might stretch or turn but she likes to sleep while I’m busy.
