Movements at 31 weeks

Does anyone else feel like their movements are more subtle since being further along in the pregnancy? I can feel my baby moving inside my belly but I don't feel the movements as "strong" when I put my hand on my belly. Not sure if it's because they've changed from "kicking" to "rolling" movements.

Anyone else feel the same?

Yes I feel the same
She was really active and strong movements and now they have eased off slightly
If I tap my stomach she does respond back and she is still moving

Baby is running out of room now so movements feel more like pushes and rolls than kicks ❤️ all normal xx

Yes, I do feel this. I also think baby has moved to have his back to my front so I feel less of the obvious kicks and hits. But definitely his moves feel more subtle - still there but less blatant. Although occasionally once or twice a day he’ll do a big fanfare dance move and my whole belly feels like it’s going to wobble off!

Yes same in 31 weeks

Same
Sometimes I still have a kick but very rare now
It feels more like she’s pushing against my belly or rolling

I am the same! I feel bad “presuming” my baby is okay because movements aren’t strong anymore but she is moving and everyone seems to be in the same boat so I think it’s okay!🫶🏽 it’s a real change though!

Yes same! it’s more like subtle pushes against my belly now than sharp kicks, I think they’re just bigger and running out of room!

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!

i really want another baby

i am merely a few months pp but i want another baby, but i am scared of the age gap (2 under 2) and also with everything going on in the world i just think its not the best idea at the moment but i am having crazy baby fever and miss having a newborn🥹

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?

Has anyone ever had pain in the bone at the bottom of the lady area?

How I can only describe it is I feel like I have a fracture or the bone is broken right at the bottom of my vagina bone obviously don’t think it’s to the extent but that’s how it feels. I had it in my last pregnancy and the pain went few months postpartum now it’s back again with this pregnancy. These are the results that u e googled I think I may have the first one has anyone every had this or something similar

Homebirth?

I am thinking I want a homebirth (second baby) for a few different reasons but my husband is very against it, he is worried about things going wrong and we are a 30 minute drive from the hospital. Has anyone been in a similar position and what did you end up doing? Any advice? 🙏
