Anyone else stressing over movements?
Any one extra anxious about whether baby’s movements are okay or not? Sometimes they’re so strong and then it’s like he has a quiet few days and I get so paranoid! But then he picks back up again. How are we supposed to know if it’s reduced or we’re just over thinking it 😣 stressing myself out!

Yeah I get anxious about this, one day they’re so strong and the next they feel so faint x
Try not to stress too much. Both my pregnancies have been more random movement as well. First time I worried a lot more 😅
In my experience, they also tend to move around less when it's warmer. My last pregnancy I called triage at around 7 months, and they told me to have a drink and lay down for a bit. Changing positions can help prompt the baby to have a wiggle.
If you're ever worried though don't forget you can call triage. They will advise you best and it's what they're there for 😊
I feel the same. Some days they feel stronger and others lighter. I think for me it depends on which they are facing, eg facing my back a lot weaker as I have anterior placenta. Feels very stressful.
I will say though if you’re ever really worried or it feels very different/quiet then it’s always best to get checked out.
