Hi all, I'm 24+4wks and am being driven out of my mind with babys movements!! He has been fairly queit over past couple of days although ihave felt him move and kick, just not as much as last week (we were on hols and i felt him move and kick all the time!!). I know all is ok as we have a home doppler and his heart sounds as before.
The last time i metioned this to my MW was at 22wks and she said on well don't worry its still early, but i do worry. DH suggested maybe if i'm tired that baby can be too?

I would really appreciate any advice, Thanks

Hi Dee
I have found throughout my pregnancy (now 37 weeks) that my baby is quieter on some days than others, often like you say on days when I am more tired also.
As long as you are still feeling 10-15 movements in a 24 hour period, my midwife told me not to worry.
Hope that helps.

Thanks for that am sure i feel 10-15 movements/kicks in 24hrs although i don't actually count them. I also wonder if i perhaps getting more used to the movements feeling as there is less room in thre for him to somersault as much!!??
