I am a student midwife and can not shout enough that BABIES MOVEMENTS DO NOT SLOW DOWN BEFORE BIRTH!!!!!!!
Sometimes they feel less kicky and more wriggly though because they are getting bigger. The amount of women I see who believe the movements slow down and so do not report less movement is shocking.
I actually believed this myth with my 1st baby and didnt report reduced movement, which when monitored ended up being concerning and led to delivery.
Any change in movement patterns should be reported girls, always
Hope youv'e all got happy wriggly babies xxxxx
