reduced movement?? :(

Hi everyone I'm 21 weeks and have felt my little man every day for 2 weeks now and its been getting stronger. Yesterday I felt him less than usual but today I've felt even less should I be worried?

I've noticed that some days I feel my little girl almost constantly and others hardly at all. I do worry the days I barely feel her, but then the next day she's back to kicking my insides out lol. At this point they're still very small and have a lot of room to hide. That said, I think it's worth calling your doctor and mentioning it if it's bothering you.

I had a few quiet days too recently, and I got worried, but he is back to kicking me now. I think this early on it can be normal to have a few days where they are less active.

For me, when I am up and really more active during the days, I notice the movements less. It worried me at first because during the week when I am working at my desk, I always feel him kicking around a lot, then on the weekends when we are out and about doing things, I felt like he was really quiet. But, it was not really reduced movement for me, just reduced noticing of the movement

I hope he gives you some good swift kicks soon!! Definitely call your doctor if you feel worried at all though, that's what they are there for

At this stage you will have quite days, it's not till about 24 weeks that get a pattern to their movements.
count the kicks is a really good charity and explains a lot about baby's movements on their FB page and website
