I had read that baby was supposed to slow down its movements now that it is getting a lot bigger but midwife said yesterday if i dont feel 10 a day to contact the mat unit. i got a bit worried that perhaps i hadnt felt 10 a day. am going to start charting it from now on but has anyoen else noticed that babys moveents werent as frequent once they hit 31-32 weeks? i can feel it squirming and trying to turn but not so many kicks. i then got paranoid as i had to run for the bus last week and felt guilty, worried that id done something to hurt baby. what do you think?
10 movements a day?

some days the baby has lazy days Alfie would go for days without a single movement and i would poke and prod him and nothing i was actually petrified when one time he did this for 4 days not a single movement and i got checked over and as soon as they put the movement monitor on me he went beserk then hed have days where he was constantly moveing i think babies just get nakered hun try not to worry but if you are worried defineately go to hospital get it checked out 
on christmas day i had exactly the same worries as you. i hadn't felt any major movements for a couple of days so i went in to be monitored and all was ok. they do say all little movements count as well but like jaidy says if you are ever worried ring your midwife, i agonised for a couple of days and when i was on the moniotr my mind was immediately put at rest.
i was 31 weeks at this time too. now i'm nearly 34 and yesterday he did not stop it was great but some days he is more active than others.
