Question

i'm 6 months & 2 weeks im 18 yrs old & first time mom. My baby normally moved allll day everyday but the past 4 days hes slowed down & since it has been labor day weekend i cant call my doctor so i called the 24 hr. line, i told them what was going on & they told me to eat/drink something sugary and lay on my left side for 2 hours & if my baby kicks 10 times in 2 hours that he is fine, & my baby kicked 10 times the first 30 minutes, but hes still not moving in his normal pattern bur does move 3-5 times a day should i still be worried maybe something is wrong since he has slowed down on his kicking/movements ??

Answer

If this concerns you, you should go to maternity triage to have your baby monitored. That happened to me but I was almost full term. Had to be induced due to my baby not moving (not to scare you). I'd rather you know what's going on then to wonder What If. Good luck

Answer

I had the same deal but with it being associated with back pain and some achey/crampy feelings I associated it with him going thru a growth spurt and he sure did, my belly grew noticably in just two days. They don't start counting kicks until I think 28 weeks.
