Reduced movement but early!
Hey lovelies
I'm currently 21+3. I've been feeling movement for a couple of weeks now and this last week every day consistently a few times throughout the day. Today I haven't felt much, I think only once or twice this morning. Nothing at all this evening. I've read in lots of forums that it's too early to call midwife or triage and they won't do anything. Any one experienced this or have any times? I've tried wiggling and star jumps which usually does the trick but nothing. I'm such a worrier and I know things are probably fine but just wondering if anyone else has experienced this at this gestation?

I was worried about this earlier in the week (21+6) but looked on the NHS healthier together app and it says movements won't get regular pattern wise until 24 weeks xx all sounds normal from what the app said but if you're worried I would message your midwife! Xx
It’s definitely normal baby will have more and more movements at 24 weeks and up and it’ll be hard to sleep lol once they do especially 28 weeks and so on
Im 21+1 and have the same worry. My midwife is seeing me tomorrow but also reassured me that it’s normal to have quiet periods for at least a few more weeks yet. If you’re feeling anxious ask your midwife to check, they’ll be supportive x
Call your maternity triage, they won’t mind and are the best to advise x
I had this from 21-22 ish weeks after feeling movements quite often. They picked back up again now I’m 24 weeks and feel him all the time. He’s always active when I get in a warm bath. I’ve also heard that a cold fizzy drink can get them moving x
