Increased movements

No, moving is good, not moving is bad.

How many weeks are you?

29 +3

Your movements will increase up until 32 weeks and you feel baby more as they get bigger. Do you mean baby is going absolutely crazy in there or just an increase in general? I have an upset tummy right now too but I think there’s something going round x

As your baby gets bigger and stronger the movements will become bigger. So it might just be that you’re feeling them more rather than an increase. But in general I don’t think an increase is something to worry about.

From my own experience of my son’s pregnancy, I had a sudden increase in movements and it turns out he was in distress and had poo’d in the waters. If you’re worried get checked out

My midwife says a reduction in movement or a change in movement. But worse case they will talk through things on the phone. I’m coming up to 31 weeks and movement have increased but not going crazy if that makes sense

I’m 32 weeks, I have ctg’s 3 times a week for reduced movements but every third time or so I’m in for hours because she moves too much apparently and they make me wait till they are satisfied she has settled back down. When that happens I feel constant kicking like she’s having a party inside of me. if in any doubt about any movement wether reduced or accelerating defo give triage a call for advice x

My midwife mentioned the next growth spurt usually takes place between
31-34 weeks so that could also play a part in increased movements or feeling stronger movements x

I think increased movements are fine. It can be very uncomfortable for me specially when I'm trying to walk places and he just decides to do a full body stretch for like 10 seconds 🥲
