Is it normal for larger women to feel a decrease in baby movements as the baby grows up towards the "chub" around the stomach?

I'm 26w5d, and baby's movements seem to have slowed this week, at least the ones I have been able to notice. They're a lot higher and feel her towards my back/bowels/intestines.. and feel softer... rather down lower where I was feeling pretty strong movements last week. Just wondering if this is normal. I still feel her move so have not called the doctor yet as she said movements are movements and as long as I'm feeling them, I shouldn't worry... But I can't help it. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced it.

I have my gd testing next Monday and will for sure bring it up to my doctor then. Just looking for others experience.
