movements

[curlyclaz13]

paranoid first time mum, sorry. I only felt bub move at 21+6 am now 24 weeks. to start I noticed a flurry of movement 2-3 times a day and OH could feel it too, this week I have noticed more regularly movement but not as strong and only 1-2 kicks at a time. is this just him settling into a sort of pattern ?

I think that probably sounds fine BUT I also think that if you're unsure of anything about movements you should definitely talk to your midwife. Please ring them this morning and tell them, don't rely on me or anyone else on the Internet telling you it's fine. I don't want to worry you as I'm sure it is but I also think you should ask your midwife about it because I am by no means an expert and these things can be important. I'm sure the midwife will help to put your mind at rest though

I found that both of mine used to have a pattern of waking and sleeping, they wouldn't move most of the day, then soon after evening meal they'd be dancing around! also a little later on in pg when movements are fewer and I hadn't felt them noticeably all day I'd have a few gulps of icy cold water... Wait a few moments then they will wriggle away!

well just to be contrary I have had a few good kicks since posting. ! he was asleep for scans so I think he is lazy like his dad.

Aww thats good curly : ) remeber the cold water trick, its reassuring to get a good beating up from the inside later on x
