Decreased Kicks

[haribo_princess]

Hi all,

I have been feeling distinctive movment since about 19 weeks and it got really strong at about 22-23 weeks, to the point where you could feel it from the outside. But in the last few days/week the movement has really slowed down and one day I didn't even feel anything. I can feel very slight movements at night but I am started to get worried. Is it nornal for the movements to get weaker instead of stronger as you go along? In my notes from the MW it says you should feel 10 clear movements day from 24 weeks.

Any advice?

Thanks

I've had exactly the same thing! Normally little one's so active and kicking all the time and I've felt hardly anything for the past 2 days. I thought you should feel something every day Have you rung your MW to ask about it? xxx

Ive so far had at least 3 seperate occasions where bubs has gone quiet. I had a mw app around that time and she was fine because of how far gone i was.

Gve her a call if you not felt much in a few hours?!!?xxxx

Mine seems to have 3 days of moving around and kicking constantly, then nothing much for the following few days untill the movment start again. Not sure if that's how its supposed to be. But on the quiet days I have been using the doppler. And so far baby is just fine. Today he has finally started the active period again.

My advice is to get checked out, I read if you feel less movements you should always get checked out.

That's also what I've noticed! I was freaking out today 'cause I've had a couple of days of hardly any movement at all...OH say my belly is bigger so maybe her movements are more cushioned? I've felt a few pokes and twinges this evening so I feel better now but not the battering I've got used to

the baby can be moving just you dont feel it much, plus its gettin more squished so has less room to move..i would assume everything is fine
