On average how often do you feel your LO's move?

GirlRacer · Mar 11th, 2012, 16:39 PM

I'm really curious about this, cos I'm 30w4d and still I'm not convinced my little man has got certain patterns of movement. They seem to be soo random still! I feel him enough times and especially more so when I'm lying down (so like evenings etc) and he usually is awake when I wake up around 7/8am(ish) but apart from that its quite random!

So how often are you feeling your LO's move and when do they seem to move the most for you?

His patterns really change every day but I'm still early. The only time he is awake at the same time every day is when I'm reading my daughter her bedtime story. I think I'd get worried if he didn't wake up then, but any other time I try not to worry too much x

Mine is wayy more active in the evening time then an any other part of the day! In the morning i have to like playy with my stomach to even get a move out of her! it freaks me out! haha. But in the evening(like right now) she is moving around constantly!
Also when i lay down for the night, she's moving around. haha.

I feel my LO move the most at night when I'm laying in bed with OH. That is when she is most active

She moves here and there during the day at random times, but is usually pretty quiet until bed time. She is usually awake in the morning around 6-8am, but I have been sleeping in a lot lately so I haven't been feeling those movements !

Mine was random too! He tends to liven up more at night when I lie down in bed and wind down for the night! They say as long as its 10 or more times it's fine! My LO doesn't have a pattern he just moves when he wants and my midwife is happy xzx

I feel him every morning when I wake up and every night when Im chilling with my laptop on the sofa. During the day for the last week or so Ive felt more movement from him but morning and evening definately when I feel him the most. He is moving more and more every day although I imagine that will reduce once he gets big and has less space to move around. x

My LO's movements still seem pretty random. She used to have her big kicking sessions at night, but lately I've been feeling her kicking and wriggling off and on throughout the morning with only a little bit of activity in the early evening. The only real long-term "pattern" she has is being quiet during the afternoon

GirlRacer · Mar 11th, 2012, 16:46 PM

I think they must like it when we're relaxing and lying down then, judging from experience and other people's experiences!

I was trying to nap on friday afternoon (just felt exhausted and crappy) and he was kicking the living day lights out of me almost like he didn't want his mummy to have a rest

Some days he's quiet though and doesn't do too much and other days I can feel him wiggling about even when I'm on the move... x

Unlike most ladies, I'm not convinced I've ever really felt a kick from my LO. I have an anterior placenta so during second tri I very rarely felt anything except for little flutters very, very down low. Even now, at 35 weeks, I don't feel her very often and there is for sure no pattern. If and when I do feel her, it's usually at night. Her heartbeat is absolutely perfect and my MW doesn't seem very concerned as she says she's been able to feel LO move a bit when she does her palpations. Sometimes I can see little ripples of movement, but I don't feel it. I don't have a lot of belly fat or anything, so I have no idea why this is happening. Hoping it means I have a nice, chilled-out baby.

Lily moves ALL day. During the daytime she is active but not as active as she is during the evening and then when I get in bed it's like her most active time, she goes nuts! Anything to keep me awake lol

For me I've noticed that she is up at 6:00 every morning and then she is active for a few hours til around 8:00 or 9:00. Then she gets active again around 11:00-2:00 then again at 5:00-8:00 so she has breaks in between but even in between she is still moving just not as much as in her most active times. Then again at 10:30-11:00 she is active again. But remember every baby is different and you may not have a pattern yet. I know mine didn't until recently, within the last 2 weeks.
