decreased movement 36 weeks?

Question

Anyone else have their baby not moving as much all of a sudden? I'm still getting 10 movements in an hour but my baby was crazy active before and now I'm feeling a lot less...maybe it's just getting too cramped in there?

Answer

Maybe not less movements but definitely different. More stretching and pushing than kicking and punching! But I've heard from many moms movement slows down significantly during this time and more so right before labor bc of lack of space and conversing energy! Best of luck!

Answer

I have decreased movement for sure once I hit 36 weeks

Answer

10 in an hour after you eat is normal, babies slow down because rhey have less space. Mine went my whole 36 week barely moving and when week 37 hit she was crazy active again. So I'm guessing it was a growth spurt and she needed her rest. I remember doing everything I could just to get her to do a basic kick count at 36 weeks. I'm in my 37th now.

Answer

I think that means baby is coming soon!
