Less movement at 21 weeks

I’ve been feeling some pretty solid flutters that have turned into kicks- felt my first at 19 weeks. The past 2-3 days he’s been much quieter with only a few kicks here and there. The activity has definitely settled down. Is this a bad sign or just regular inconsistent movement for this gestational age?

Similar here! My doctor said is normal..depends of the position's baby. He is moving but we don't feeling all the moviments

My doctor told me i won’t feel anything until 24-25 weeks. Especially since i have an anterior placenta. Everyone is different with the movement of their babies!!

Same here. I feel he moves when he wants. They are mostly sleeping and still growing right now. If I feel a few kicks a day I’m cool. Doc said they don’t start worrying about movement and kick counts until 24 weeks. I’m currently shy of 22(Thursday)

Same here so happy to see similar comments I’m about 22 weeks as well

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?

Reduced Movements

Has anyone else gone in for monitoring for reduced movements and as soon as you arrive at triage the baby starts moving and the CTG is normal? It makes me feel like I am over reacting.

Baby Movements

Hello, I’m a FTM currently 18W5D pregnant. I’ve been getting this tugging feeling in my stomach after I eat, it’s uncomfortable but not painful. I don’t know whether that’s the baby moving or round ligaments pain.

I’ve also been getting round ligament pain which is either a sharp stabbing pain or a stretching sensation. These happens whether or not I’ve eaten while the tugging feeling is only after I’ve eaten.

So, could the tugging feeling be the baby or something else.
