Slowed down movements

6 Replies

Am 27/4 and since yesterday I can't feel my baby moves as usual. She has been really active before but now I can just feel faint movements.had a driving test today and yes I was very nervous and was upset after failing ...has the stress affected her?

Try drinking a big cold glass of water or orange juice for the sugar and lie down on your side to count movements. If she doesn't move at least ten times in an hour, it is best to call triage and go in and get checked. It'll surely be fine, but best be on the safe side!

I'm 28 plus 2 weeks pregnant, baby boy still has his more active days than others. I try drinking cold water and eating a bit of chocolate, lay down quietly and talk to my belly and he wakes up lol, little bugger I think I will always worry till he is here!

Ring the hospital and let them know her movements gave become reduced. They will ask you sine questions and bring you in for a monitoring if its needed. Don't wait you babies movements are sometimes telling us we need a closer look. More than likely she'll have changed position but let them reassure you x

Hi to be honest me and my friend had exactly same situation around 28 weeks baby wasn’t moving as much as usual. We both went to the hospital to check ! but all was fine and midwife said baby is growing fast in this weeks and getting less room . I bet all is fine and all is in our head, but we want all the best for them :)

If you are not sure go to the hospital and you will see you will be much happier all is fine than sitting and worrying if all is ok !
