sleepy days for baby?

Just wondering if your bumps have 'sleepy days'? I'm 22 weeks but been feeling kicks for a few weeks now. Baby's been quite active (during the night especially) however last few days not felt as many kicks, still had a couple and lighter movements. Should I be concerned or do you think baby's still got enough room that there will be days where I don't feel much?

Hey plunkett I think the official advice is if you're concerned you should contact someone so this is just my experience.

I have quieter days, but always some movement. At 34 weeks now and my MW advised there should be 10 movements in 2 hours (don't know if thats also at 22 wks but sounds like as good a measure as any).

If you don't count that do something that usually kicks off a bit of wriggling - sugar, ice cold drink, bath etc. if still concerned call someone. Sometimes movement is more muted depending on location of placenta - do you know where yours is?

HTH :)

Hi thanks Lois
Having some movements but just not as noticable as it was the last few days. Think she's probably just moved/turned as movements I am having are in a different place too.
Second pregnancy so should be breezing through it but sure i'm more worried this time than before.
Hope you have a great last few weeks before meeting your little one :)
