Is this common?

Question

From around 16.5 weeks - just before 20 weeks I used to feel baby move and kick all of the time, since 20 weeks she’s definitely became more quiet. Is this a common thing from 20 weeks?
I had my 20 week scan and everything was fine!

Answer

kick counts don't really start until 28 weeks because the baby is so small that you are likely not feeling all the movements :) I wouldn't be concerned, but you can always call your OB if you are worried. I am a l&d; nurse, btw.

Answer

I got checked over yesterday and they listened to the heart beat and she was fine and as soon as they put the Doppler on she began to kick, I guess she doesn’t like the Doppler 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

Answer

I am exactly the same! Felt baby moving early around 15-16 weeks a lot more than I am now at 20 weeks. Dr said I’ve got an anterior placenta so perhaps baby was squirming when it was smaller and had more room to hit different areas of my uterus and now with a bit less room the placenta is blocking some of the kicks that aren’t as strong. That’s all I can come up with since ultrasound was fine.

Answer

Very much so! I'm 23 weeks today and baby girl has days where I will only feel a few thumps here and there, and days where it feels like she's auditioning for Cirque Du Soleil. 💃 It'll start becoming more consistent as your pregnancy progresses. 😊

Answer

They have quiet days, so yes it's normal. My little one hardly moved for 2 days last week (23 week's) and now it feels like he/she is trying to escape
