I am at 26 +2 and really some days feel very little movement. Its not a big mover at the best of times but on good days would get a bit of hoofing when lying down. other times I go days on end feeling nothing. Went into the day assement last weekend as had felt nothing all weekend and got got paranoid after reading a "count the kicks "thread. All well.
At clinic a few days later , the doc sort of suggested that I just dont feel it when I am busy and would do if I did the lying still for a couple of hours thing. Felt a bit like a time waster actually. The thing is I am pretty sure that I am aware even when I am busy....kicks are so few and far between that I certainly notice when they happen. I feel like I cant keep going in to hospital.
I am resorting to my little home doppler for reasurance, but I still worry at the lack of kicks. On scans the baby is moving fine it seems, but I just dont feel much. I do have a front placenta so that might be deadening things.
I'm just not sure how persistent to be or how concerned to be. Certainly without my little doppler thingy would be freaking.
