something cold and sugary, changing positions, sitting in the sun with your top off (think its simialr to the torch idea) and I've found if I accidentally sit my laptop on my tummy baby hates it and I get kicks (which is good I know having my laptop on my tummy cant be good for baby!)
Lying down with a sugary icy cold drink. I had one time when it didn't work for over 30 mins and worried me. Have you had a decrease in movements hun?? Bub could be getting ready to arrive and resting up but if you are worried and haven't felt usual movements I would call your hospy.
2nd all the above advise but I also put the cup which I had been drinking my icy drink from on my tummy. It was freezing but she didnt like it and soon got the boot of disapproval
Please go to get a check if you are concerned, the hospital doesn't mind, and certainly better than you stressing about it
At that stage for me, having avoided caffeine my entire pregnancy and while I was BFing DD (so no caffeine for more than 2 years!) I drank a glass of Coke and then lay down quietly. It worked for me.
I didn't realise you were so close to meeting your LO - looking forward to your BA
icy cold drinks or pressing on my belly. actually, if i lie next to DS that always gets the baby going. and most of the time if i stop & lie down that gets it going as well.
maybe bub is conserving some energy at the moment?
