Movements

I’m 22 weeks and 2 days pregnant and baby doesn’t seem to be moving as much today compared to the last week or so - when would midwives be concerned is it from now or 24 weeks? I’m so confused and assume everything is ok but it’s hard not to worry 😭

It could be babys just flipped over! I have days like that but then sometimes I feel him so strongly. Try not to worry. I’m sure they will kick your bladder during the night 😂 x

I had this the other day and then she was fine the next morning! I did call triage for advice and she said to me if I was concerned I could come in - I ended up feeling her again in the evening so decided to leave it but I think they are quite good at letting you get checked out if you’re concerned. They do say it’s normal before 26 weeks to not necessarily have a set routine 🤍

At this stage I’m sure you can try shining a light in your tummy I’ve heard, or playing music from your phone against your tummy I sometimes just prod away and try to annoy him to get a reaction

I had this for two days baby went quiet but tonight feeling a lot of movements but I’ve noticed the kicks have changed so could be baby has moved, I’ve got a anterior placenta too xx

I had this last night, phoned triage this morning and they told me to go to my midwife this afternoon to get checked, everything was fine and it made me feel so much calmer. My midwife said I did the right thing going in and getting checked but at this stage movements can be unpredictable. I'm 20 weeks x

I feel like this today… they normally move in the morning but I don’t remember them and I’ve been at work and have maybe felt a couple of sort of swirls but no sort of kicks/jabs. So hard when you know there’s no pattern yet but it still makes you worry!

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?

Early waters/pre term labour?

I can’t get checked until later today unfortunately. I can’t tell if I’m leaking/starting early. I definitely think I’m having braxton hicks yesterday and today.. i have some pain in my back but she is quite low down so hoping it’s just pressure, baby was a little quieter yesterday but she’s back to more normal movements today, but my underwear just seems to get so wet, especially after going to the bathroom. And I honestly can’t work out the smell, I’m pretty sure it’s just discharge/urine leaking but there’s that worry in my mind a little. Are there any other ways to know/check if it could be the start of it all?
