Movements after dropping?

Question

FTM- I’m currently 36 weeks 1 day and baby dropped about 3-4 days ago.  I’m so thankful I can breath and eat again but since he’s dropped, especially today, his movements, which previously had been frequent and pretty regular, have lessened.  I still feel him moving around and can get 10 “kicks” in a hour, but didn’t know if this was normal.  He has been measuring big and we’re doing another growth scan on Tuesday so maybe he’s just running out of room?

Answer

My baby dropped at 30 weeks and was measuring 4 weeks ahead! Movements have lessened but when I told my dr and midwife they said as long as I feel movement at least twice a day its ok, as baby has set a schedule for itself! They did also say if I feel worried to come and get checked over!

Answer

When I don’t feel a lot of movement I drink a lot of water I am a little bit confused because if you are feeling 10 kicks an hour that’s a lot

Answer

My daughter had dropped weeks ago and I still feel lots of movements from her.  I would definitely call your doctor if it seems abnormal

Answer

If you cant get in touch with the night nurse, call labor and delivery at your hospital.

Answer

Make a call!! When i felt my baby's movements lessened, i called and let my dr know.  They had me come in and check the heartbeat and then they did NST on me that same day to make sure everything was ok.  If at any time your are worried about something like this. Please call your doctor! Good luck
