Movement?

[Vicki83]

Hi girls, i'm starting to worry myself as LO hasn;t been very active past week. Still getting the odd bit of movement at night, so not totally all gone, is this normal??

at this stage movements can be affected by the position of the baby. It may have turned and be kicking the placenta or something. So you won't feel it.
What i used to do is lay flat on my back on the settee moving from one side to the other every now and then. This usually worked and made the baby move.
try it.
another i used to try is drinking fizzy pop prefarably cold.

don't get het up about it. i know its hard but im sure as soon as you relax baby will move.

OMG! I was about to ask the same question.

My LO is not moving as usual.

I've been having lime+salt daily to get rid of my sore throat. I asked my granny if its fine and she said its should be.

So I'm lost...

Oh I just saw your post budge.

I used to poke my belly as if im having a scan, and she would move! But its not working now. Could it have been coincidence?

I finally am seeing my midwife on Wednesday, unless they cancel my appointment yet again, so i'll say to her then too got a couple of other things i need to speak to her about anyways! Ah the joys, worrying me sick and LO isn't even here yet!!

I haven't had as much movement as i used to but i've just read that because the baby is getting bigger s/he doesn't have as much room as before. The kicks are meant to get alot harder as time goes on (LO probably getting as inpatient as their mother! )
