Decreased Movement in 39 week

[first_time_mum]

I am 39+1 and from yersterday my baby is moving less. 2 days ago I had MW appt and everything was OK. Is there any reason for that?

Its possible the baby maybe just having a rest / quiet day but if ever feel as if the baby is not moving usually its a good idea to ring your chosen Maternity triage dept/ ward

yes it is possible that baby is having a quieter day, but I really suggest you ring and go to your maternity ward for them to check.... its better safe than sorry

You should still get 10 movements if your not u should ring n get checked xx

Hi, first time mum, ring your Midwife or Antenatal clinic straight away, if you have a change in the normal pattern of your baby's movements it can be a sign that something is not right. This is particularly important in the later stages of pregnancy. Counting movements can give you a false sense of security so if you feel there is something not right get it checked out. You are obviously concerned enough to post on here so trust your instincts...you know your baby better than anyone!.

Best regards
