    Perfectly normal. It gets less like that when you get further along though.

    If you get worried have an icy cold drink (like a slurpy) then lie down. You are bound to feel bubs move. Eating chocolate also used to have the same effect for me as did coffee (only had that in the last few weeks of pregnancy though). Getting your partner to blow a raspberry on the bump can also get a movement happening.

    Completely normal for that stage of pg. Do you know if you have an anterior placenta at all? If you do, if bubs moved to a different position, you may not feel as much movements either due to the placenta absorbing most of it kwim?

    i feel movement pretty much throughout the day, then some days I will not feel hardly anything. I just assume it is bubs having a rest. I think for how many weeks we are it is perfectly normal.
