reduced Fetal movments 30 weeks pregnant

[meegm]

Hi ,

The last maybe 2 weeks his movements have become more like rolling and pushing rather than kicks, they are still quite frequent.

Is this normal - i assume it is beacuase he is running out of room...

First baby not sure what goes on..
Thanks

Definitely. Thats how mine were. I noticed as they get head down and begin to engage you find movements become stretches more then the jolty kicks and punches of the 20 - 30 week time. As long as you can feel a certain number of movements a day thats fine.

Enjoy it while it lasts.

Yeah my tummy is always moving and rolling - he has been head down for since 27 weeks but its def getting more stecthy movements as you describe

Cheers

sounds normal to me. I am at 30 weeks now and pretty much either get rolling and stretching sort of movements or really spasmodic kind of movements - I wouldn't be worried if you are getting any kind of movement at all on a regular basis.
