Baby movements at 39 and 5

Just curious what kind of movements you're feeling from your baby at this stage? Is it more rolling and stretching rather than actual kicks?

I'm just confused about when I should go in and get checked. I've already been in once and everything was fine. I can still feel the baby moving, but the movements are definitely different from before. I know there's less room now, but there's still movement.

I've never really had a consistent pattern in terms of timings, so it's hard to know what's normal. I'm honestly just so tired and feel like I'm constantly worrying about whether everything is okay.

Yes definitely less kicks and more rolling and stretching. I used to get little thumps but not so much any more. He's also now facing my spine which is where my placenta is so quite possible that he's kicking/pushing the placenta and I'm not feeling it. Whereas he used to be kind of side on and I'd get lots of kicks on the side of my bump

I'm just getting a lot of pushing out and shifting and rolling and tickles down below xx

That sounds very similar to what I feel, I didn't even think about posterior placenta! thanks both

Lots of rolling movements, stretches, hiccups. Can't feel any kicks (baby has always been more rolls and stretches) x

Horrible name choice

So my son is Abel, my daughter is Blair, now I’m pregnant without third and my husband is SET on Cain….. however my MIL and my sister are both like No No you CANT have cain and Abel ( we are not religious at all!!) but I do kinda like Cain…. Bad idea or don’t give a shit what people say?

First menstrual cycle

I finally had my first period since I gave birth in May. I’m currently on day 11, and it’s still extremely heavy. This is the worst I’ve ever felt. Honestly, I’d rather give birth again than endure this pain.
