Less movement

vicwick · Sep 10th, 2008, 07:06 AM

Hi ladies

I've noticed a lot less movement during the day of my bubby

not sure if this is cos s/he's gettin bigger now as i'm 29 weeks and has less room??? s/he moves quite a bit on an evening still but just worried, as i worry all the time lol The heartbeat is fine as i've checked on the dopplar. Did this happen to anyone else at this stage?

Thanks girlies xx

I am not at the same stage as you but some days i feel my LO alot and others I don't feel very much I think he/she just changes position. If you can still hear the heart beating I am sure all is fine. Call your Midwife if you are really worried x

My bubba has quiet days and then mad days !!

I think its perfectly normal

I am 32 weeks and my baby has lots of quiet times.

My mw suggests to me, drinking cold water and lay somewhere quietly for 30 minutes or so and you'll be amazed how much you feel LO move cos you're waiting for it.

Sure everything is fine x x

Just had my dinner at work and a nice big bottle of cold water, LO won't stop moving now

I just worry a lot i'm terrible!!! But all seems fine s/he's kicking me right in the ribs

Thanks ladies

I'm glad LO is moving some more

I barely notice my girl moving during the day while i'm at work. But i do get the odd sharp prod just to remind me that she's still there! She does have quiet days too though but more active in the evenings. As long as you feel at least 10 movements a day, then there should be nothing to worry about. xxx

Hey When i was coming up 29 weeks i didnt feel LO move much and when i did they wasnt as powerful as they had been. My Midwife said its cos she is running out of move and that she will pick up again soon enough once in a comfortable position. And a few days later she was back to normal! try not to worry to much, talk to your midwife if you are still worried.

Glad everything is ok.

It's quite cruel really we torchure our babies, mw told me drinking the cold water drives them mad, they hate it. But clearly it does the trick, but if they kept moving wouldn't need to do it to them.

Don't worry too much, my LO is often quite during the day nuts she's a spaz at night. It i getting much tighter in there, so sometimes it takes more effort for them to move around, the little lazy bums. Also they do sleep, so it's possible that it's nap-time when they aren't moving so much.

In the later weeks babies can sleep something like 90-95% of the time - I read that somewhere...

They have their own sleeping pattern etc too completely independant from ours.
