Movement 28 weeks no pattern yet?

My baby hasn’t really developed a pattern yet and I’m starting to panic so much! People say keep an eye on the movement it should be the same each day but my baby never does she just moves at random times of the day each day for instance whenever I sit or lay down she’ll always move but not really when I’m moving about. I will say she’s active when I first wake up and then I just get kicks throughout the day
Can Anyone else relate?

I’m the exact same, I don’t think you need to worry about it. I’m 31 weeks and he never has a pattern he just does what ever he wants 🩵

They told me some babies never really develop a “pattern” with specific times etc. and as long as you feel consistent movements during the day its all fine.

My little boy (now 1) and my little girl (currently pregnant and due in April) neither had a set pattern. I just got to know them and if I wasn’t sure they was as active as usual I always get checked

I usually have a pattern and like mine at 27 weeks he usually constant active in morning and when I got bed or in bath, but tonight in Bath he moved hut not as active so I rang birth centre and again they told me different as long baby move and been active its usually a positive side its when they very quiet and hardly moved, but any concenres ring your birth centre they reassure you

I’m nearly 30 weeks and mine is the same.
Some days he won’t stop kicking then others he can be very quiet. I told the midwife and she said aslong as it’s normal for him that’s ok. Sometimes when your busy doing things you just don’t notice so much as when your resting x

I was worried about that too but she started moving a lot more at 29 weeks it was like a light switch! I’m now 30 weeks and I’m starting to get to know her pattern!

I don’t either and I feel like it’s harder to feel a lot of the movements with my anterior placenta. She moves when she wants no matter what I may do to try to encourage it

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!
