Does baby sleep longer the further along you get ??

[charmy28]

Just wondering if the baby sleeps for longer periods the further along you get??
The last few nights and mornings baby doesnt move once i lie down to sleep, she doesnt move when i wake up to use the toilet etc (so i know she is sleeping in the night) and she also takes a few hours to move in the morning once i get up. (even if i give her a good poke)
Has anyone else experienced this?? Do you think she is just sleeping when i am?? She does move in the day usually on and off.

If you are noticing a change in movement pattern don't hesitate to get checked out x

The thing is that she has been really active in day and eve. It just seems when i go to bed and wake up in the morning she takes ages to wake up.

If she is moving significantly less than usual I would get it checked out. But I have read that the further along you are the less room they have to move around and that they also do sleep for longer periods of time. Keep us posted!

I was also wondering this as my baby seems to be slowing down a bit, nothing huge and is still very wiggly, just not quite as wiggly as she was!!

Its very strange. For example she was active last night before i went to bed. Then when i am asleep and when i turn in night or get up to go to toilet nothing.....it also took her a few hours to wake up this morning but when she did she was very active, just had an hours nap and again she has gone really quiet again. I am wondering if its because she gets into an awkward position when i sleep so i cannot feel her.

i have a pregnancy app that says at this stage baby sleeps 90% - 95% of the time. i dont get kicks anymore just rolling about and poking, im not worried as i dont sense any danger just baby running out of room. But if your worried then im sure midwife would reassure you

If my daughter sleeps that much, I have a very active sleeper in there! Not me, she gets me the worst at night but doesn't hesitate to kick, nudge, headbutt, or butt-butt me 24/7. I know she has to move in here sleep because that is how much I feel her, but at least half is definitely waking movement because it's so strong. I'd complain because it really is uncomfortable sometimes, but at least that's something I don't have to worry about.
