Amount of Movement

Some days my baby seems a lot more active than others. This week for instance it has had spurts of active movement for the past 2 days but today i've hardley felt anything.

Is this normal? x

I went through that a few weeks ago and it's happening again. I put it down to a growth spurt.

Mine would be really active for 2 or 3 days and then usually have a day or 2 of hardly moving which would worry me but when I didn't feel him for 3 days I began to panic. Luckily right after I posted on here about it he began to kick again!!

Until I was 23 weeks, I had no real regular movements at all. I would feel the odd thing a few days in a row, but then nothing. But at 23 weeks it was much more prominent and regular. x

Until about 24 weeks I didn't feel it everyday, so I wouldn't worry hun

Thanks Everyone! At least i know im not the only paranoid one. It sounds quite normal.

Yeah, I can feel Junior everyday now, but somedays he's more active than others. I found that when Im walking around I can't feel anything, but if Im having a lazy day doing nothing he goes for it!

Thats only a recent thing though. Even just 2 weeks ago I wasn't feeling him everyday.

Totally normal, my baby has active days and lazy days.

yep very normal the doctor said dont start counting movement til 27/8 wks
for now as long as you feel it once a day its fine. my baby had 3 totally lazy days that almost gave me heart failure but the last two days have been active ones. try not to worry tho its hard.

My Peanut is like that too. For the past few days I've hardly felt her at all and last night she kept me up ALLLLL night long!

I've been feeling this baby move everyday since 16 weeks but some days it is alot quieter, only feeling one or two movements but some days it seems constant.

The other day I hadn't felt baby move for over a day for the 1st time since 16 weeks and I was really worried but then it started kicking again and since then it's been alot more often and stronger aswell
