less movement in third tri

cupcake · Apr 15th, 2008, 05:53 AM

has anyone else noticed the babies move less? i still count my movements like 4 movements morning afternoon night but that baby def moves less. if i poke it will give a kick or change positions a bit and ill see a wave of movement.
i know they have less space now and last appointment the baby was head down but it still kind of bothers me. i just dont get lots of kicks like i used to.

any thoughts?

My baby has some quiet days....how many days in a row have you noticed less movements? it could also be that your baby is moving more at night when you're asleep.

I thought so, but then I realised, I wasn't feeling it but I could see it. We get so used to it that sometimes they manage to move without us realising.

I notice when i wake up to pee at night, my baby is awake and he's always very active and kicking very early in the morning....i think you should try doing a movement count from 9am to 9pm and you should have at least 10 movements...the only thing is its hard to notice all the movements when we're up and about or concentrating on other stuff like work.

Mine doesn't move 10 times a day but when she does move, she makes up for it! LOL

Toria, that's the same with me...although i must admit that i havent actually concentrated on counting movements during the day.

am I the only one with a hyper active baby? 10 big movements a day??? more like at least 10 per hour! Can't let my stomach touch my desk because then he just has a temper tantrum.

I think kicks slow down. I haven't had any kicks like he used to for ages, but he wriggles and changes position quite a lot. I also feel elbows, feet, hands, whatever sticking out of my sides too. Very strange feeling.

If you're worried about movement lie on your back and have a prod around. If you're still worried have a word with your MW to be sure
