Reduced movement

As approaching my due date my baby has decided to slow down (kicks not as strong etc) but still movement through out the day .. anyone with the same similar experience? Should I be concerned?

If baby’s moved more down you might not be feeling it as much as he’s got more room and space but can still give you a gentle kick x

Any reduce movement at any stage in pregnancy is worth giving your midwife / triage a call. Movement can feel different but never slowed down xx

You need to get checked out. Any change in movement, faster, slower, less strong etc, get monitored. Please xoxo

Yes everything should be fine but get it checked. Any excuse to see the baby ❤️ xx

You should always get baby checked out if there is a change in the movements

movements for me really slowed down towards the end of the pregnancy i think she didn’t have much room to kick. i went and got checked every time (they were definitely sick of me!!) and everything was fine but please get checked x

I would say get checked but for me , my girls movements definitely slowed down (or I felt them way less) in the last few weeks of pregnancy :)

As everyone has said I would definitely get checked for peace of mind but for me I did notice movements were different and sometimes less prominent towards the end when he had less wiggle room and dropped lower

Early labour

Anyone else stuck in the stop start of early labour? Or have been?
I have a toddler and no family close and I feel awful as I dragged my mum down to stay for a false alarm — I was so convinced it was going to be last night now I’ve woken up and feel guilty as the same thing could happen again tonight

Anterior placenta and movements on the outside

Hi all, I have an anterior placenta and can feel movements fine myself, but my husband is feeling a bit sad about not being able to feel them himself on the outside yet. I’m currently 21+5. How long was it til you anterior placenta girlies could feel kicks on the outside?
