When to worry

Question

I’m 30 weeks and normally baby is VERY active like non-stop kicking and for the last few days he hasn’t really been moving. I’ll feel him move every now and then but he does not kick at all anymore. When should I be concerned?

Answer

I’d ring your midwife asap and just let her no I would of rang her when I first noticed if it was me xx

Answer

I called mine around that time for similar reasons. She told me to eat or drink something and then lay on my side and I should feel at least 5 individual movements in an hour. So I drank some soda and ate a popsicle and lay quietly in my bed. Sure enough, after two days of small and sporadic movements little man finished his movements in 10 minutes. 
She told me to come in right away if I didn’t get those kicks within an hour, and then even if I did I could still come in if it made me feel better. I didn’t go in though, I felt better after that and the next day he was back to normal patterns.

Answer

When in doubt, you need to get checked.

Answer

my baby is the same way, but ive noticed after 30 weeks she doesnt do kick movements anymore. its more of a swoosh movement now, + i noticed shes sleeping a lot more. literally 2 days out of the week she has her lazy days and the rest shes either super active or has subtle movements throughout the day. i only get concerned if i havent felt her move at all esp if i did everything to get her to wake up. as long as i feel movements im not worried. always trust ur gut.
