Less active?

Question

I’m 24+5 weeks. Last week, I was feeling baby moving ALL THE TIME. The last few days, I don’t feel him as much...a small kick right then and there...I also feel like my bump is small for 24 (almost 25) weeks...
Placenta partially anterior and FTM...
Should I be worried?

Answer

It’s normal.. at least for me it has been. I’ve had days where I’d barely feel him.. and others he’d be super active. My doctor said I wouldn’t feel him consistently until about 30 weeks. I’m 26 weeks now and he is getting more consistent now but there’s times I don’t feel him.. I do also have an anterior placenta. 
If you’re concerned at all.. it doesn’t hurt to call your doctor/midwife!

Answer

If it’s really a concern for you, call your HCP (health care provider). I think I was at 24 weeks when I had a day that I felt the fetal movements were less pronounced and fewer and farther between, so I called the hospital and they said that fetal movements don’t become regularized until around week 28-30. So it’s perfectly normal to have a day or a couple of days where the movements feel weaker and less frequent. 
Also, if you’re tired, or have had a big day, baby’s going to be tired too. Try drinking a nice big glass of water and eating a healthy snack and you should feel some movements. 
But like I said, if you’re really concerned, call your doctor or midwife. That’s what they are there for! Hope all is well! ❤

Ughh I could have wrote this post myself! Feeling the same way with an anterior placenta. Getting worried 😧 US on Wednesday

Answer

Same here! I’m almost 26 weeks and I feel like the past few days his kicks have been less strong. But my doctor said it is normal as long as I was feeling him move (which I have been) 
But I also can’t tell if it’s just me getting used to the kicks that I don’t notice them anymore.

Answer

Mines been less active past few days too but it really depends on what I’m doing and how I’m sat. He was kicking higher when I could feel it most and now it’s low again so I’m guessing it’s the position. I do worry a bit and love each kick for the reassurance.
