Baby movements.... should I be worried?

So after 2 weeks of regular, frequent, hard (enough to see my belly jump with the force) movements we seem to be MIA.

Yesterday I had a few, soft movements and today I have had about 5 kicks, very soft...

Could bubs have moved into a funny position or should I call the midwife? (lol, I just got another soft kick then so make that 6)

I did spend a lot of time on my hands and knees yesterday... dont know if that could have helped bubs move into a funny position.

you are after 10 kicks in 12 hours so you still have time. It could be that bubs has moved or that your uterus has grown and bubs has a ltitle more room.  It also could be that you have jsut been busier and not noticed them.  Drink a long cold glass of water...that often "kick" starts them (excuse the bery bad pun)

Plus, don't forget that growing babies get tired too! MIne goes in cycles, even now, where he'll beat me black and blue for a day or two and then he'll have a day where he just snoozes. Sit down quietly and just put your hands on your tum for a while and see what you feel - baby is probably moving, but moving when you're moving too so you're not feeling it as such. The glass of cold water really works too - my boy used to hate it! and I'd usually get an almightly wollop about 20 minutes after drinking it

I got really concerned when I was about 28 weeks with the same thing. She was just playing hard to get and now I wish she would quieten down for an hour at least so I can get some sleep.

Ring your MW if it would make you feel better but quiet days are not uncommon.

The water didn't work for me. But holding the glass against my tum often woke her up with a start lol.

hey ladies yeah the cold water works for me too!! actually anything does i have ultra hypo baby i think ha ha

hey question for you seasoned professionals at being pregas, how are you all sleeping? im finding it REALLY hard to get comfortable now and lying on my sides sometimes is realy horrible and lying on back is sore too arghhhhhhh i just guess its normal maybe and using the 4 pillows i have manouevered around me is the best bet ???
what do ya reckon?

huh, my ticker did not update yesterday.....

I noticed some tickers were out. Very weird.

Tarn, sleeping is very uncomfortable but I just got used to it. I've dropped to one extra pillow now. I use it to slightly wedge under my belly while i'm lying on my side so the weight of my belly doesn't pull me over as it twists my back. I put it longways against my body and wrap my arms around it as it keeps my hands from getting squished and going to sleep which hurts like hell.

I'm afraid being uncomfortable just seems to be part of :) Blimey, 27 weeks, I didn't realise you were so far along. Did you find out the sex? Tammy did tell me but I'm lucky if I can remember my own name at the moment.

I had a quiet patch at about that time and got paranoid - ended up going into hospital at 10pm for CTG monitoring. It was worth it for my peace of mind!

oh im glad melnel thats awesome!!!
