    Yep go the sweet stuff. My doc says it is a good indication of how the sugar is being transferred from the placenta and how the baby is responding to it. But if you are worried please please don't wait just get to hospital or your OB.

    Bub's movements did slow down for me in the last few weeks, not so much rolls and kicks, but many more prods. Sometimes I can watch my belly move but don't actually feel the movements cos they are so subtle. Maybe watch as well as feel, especially after a cold sweet drink like the others have suggested.

    I would get it checked out though if you are worried. Nothing like peace of mind to make you enjoy these last few weeks. I remember a GF constantly saying her bubs had slowed down from about 33 weeks, and she had a perfectly healthy bub at 39 weeks.

    Good luck hun! Your lil person is just getting a bit cramped that's all

    I'd go into your local maternity and have a CTG, just to check on bubs.
    It wouldn't hurt.

    Just realised Id forgotten to respond to this. Sorry ladies . Yeah everythings fine now as far as bub movements go. Bub must've been oddly positioned or something as I tried the cold/sweet drink & didnt get much of a reaction. But a day or so later movements seemed to go back to fairly normal.

    Dragonbub - I sat & watched my belly after your suggestion & did notice some movements going on that I wasn't 'feeling' at all so again it must've been simply how bub was lying.

    Thanks for the replies ladies
