Little Movement

[jejala]

I am 30 weeks pg with my 3rd boy. But with this one hes not moving as much as the other two did. With the other two it felt like a whole football team was inside all the time. This little one he has one or two little kicks a couple of times a day.

Does this sound normal? I see my obgyn next Tuesday so I will ask him. Just wondering if any of you girls could put my mind a ease for the next week.

I am just worried that there may be something wrong with him.

Jejala - dont know abt 30 weeks. Im 34 weeks today and have noticed less movement - prolly cos he's got less room now....

Im sure your little one is fine. Have you been busier than usual not to notice the kicks/squirms?

Some babies are more active than others? I think most of the stuff I've read says that consistency is more important. Like, has your baby been really active up to this point and then slowed down a lot? That could be a bit of a worry. They slow down when they have less room, too.

I agree that some babies are more active than others, I have been worried sick about the little boy in my belly this whole pregnancy cause he doesnt move as much as what my daughter did when she was in my tummy. Lily seemed to have more stronger kicks than him and never stopped, I do feel him move but only when he is turning around or stretching a leg or arm out, he doesnt sit there and kick the absolute crap out of me like Lily did.

I told my doctor this, he checked his heartrate and everything appeared normal on all the ultrasounds ive had, so he is not worried, I think he is just a more settled baby than what Lily was? Hopefully! lol I guess each baby is different.

As long as eveything was ok on your ultrasounds and his heart rate is is still good he is probably fine but doesnt hurt to check with ur GP or OB.
