How far along into the pregnancy do bubs slow down with movement ect the last 2 days my girl has been way less active than usual she still moves but more like shifting positions no kicking or disco dancing movements (as i call them) i am a little concerned but dont want to over react as she is moving just not as much.
My bub was like that yesterday too - I dont think there is much room left in there now! Today bub has been active but then sleeping - I can see definate paterns!
If you worried babe - head into hossy.
I've always found after 30wks mine have really slowed down, as you said instead of kicks its more movements from them shifting positions.
If you're worried doesn't hurt to get looked over by someone :hug:
If you're the least bit worried, go and get checked out. God knows you have had enough stress with this pregnancy, if something is worrying you, get some reassurance as soon as you can :hug: :hug:
She is probably fine but go and get checked out just in case. It is better to be safe than sorry and it isn't over reacting at all.
Yesterday I found the following website and found it very useful... also made me more aware of the movements....
If your worried at all the hospital is there and can check things out for you...
I know how you feel. I was also feeling like bub had just stopped. What freaked me out more is
I had had a sundae from Hungry Jacks and had a nap... Soft serve is a sort of no-no... But I decided to risk it anyway... In the 2hrs since I woke up from my nap - nothing!! I've just tried drinking cold water and had an icy pole and to my relief, rolling !
Is there anyway you can eat an icypole or drink really strong really cold cordial?
Call the hospital if youre really concerned, please
Drink a glass of ice water and if no kicks then please go to the hospital and get checked out. It's normal for kicks to slow down as baby gets bigger but if you are concerned about a change in movements then you really need to see your midwife.
Thanks ladies i have drank ice water and had a bowl of icecream and i have had rolling shifting movements but nothing real strong i am sitting here with DH waiting to see if we get anything to put our minds at rest little bugger is going to worry mummy right til the very end.
:hug: Please go down to your hospital and get it checked. It's better to feel like a doofus than wish you had gone to the hospital.
Babies' movements don't slow down at the end - that is an old wive's tale.
Hopefully bub's just being a bit cheeky, but I'd pop down and get it checked out. Might help you sleep if you can check everything's alright. xo
Thanks ladies little miss did her disco thing after i had that ice drink she went crazy through the night also which made me feel much better and i rang the hospital and they have told me to keep a movement count and i when have an u/s on wed then see the OB to let him know if any problems before then i am to go to the hospital
I'm glad to hear she has started dancing again :)
Pleased to hear this, I hope she doesn't give you another scare like that :)
Just found this thread and wondered if I could hijack it...
Usually bubs is super active and I havent felt much at all today....
This is my first day off work in 6 days and i've been mainly resting, just had some lunch to see if it gets him going. I'm going to try the cold drink also.
Anything else I could try?
I used to actually poke my baby to wake them up. It sounds really cruel but if it puts your mind at rest it is worth it. The other thing is to lie down and just concentrate on your belly, you may see movements even if you can barely feel them. If you are concerned then go and see your midwife xx
I havent read the other posts, but maybe have a super cold glass of cordial or lemonade, the cold/ sweetness will wake them up. As you get towards the end they start to run out of room so the movement isnt as exaggerated :) If youre worried though go and see your GP.
Go get it checked. You can never be too careful! Keep in mind that sometimes babies have lazy days too. I noticed when it was really hot my bump was never as wriggly either. Won't hurt getting someone to check tho :)
Lying down doing a kick count and and only felt two really small weak movements in last 20min..... :(

chances are that your baby is just sleeping. Babies don't like having an ultrasound, so a scan will wake them up more than anything (not to mention reassure you). It's not worth worrying, go to the hospital and get checked out xx
Been feeling some more ' normal' movement this afternoon. Will keep an eye on it. Thanks for all your replies ladies :)
