Reduced movement?

I'm 23 weeks today and my wee boy has been really active the past few days but today I can't feel it so much. I had a 4D scan today so I know he's fine, he's just changed position and is kind of cuddling into the placenta so I assume the kicks are being cushioned. Should I still ask to be checked out?

Any change in movement as to whats normal for your baby should be checked out. Best to get seen x

Yes, get checked, always.

However, I did have a (frightening) week or so around 22w when I felt him much less than previously - was told that this is because the uterus moves, or something? By the time he'd grown a bit bigger, just the next week, I felt him loads again.

But do get checked.

Thanks for the advice, I gave them a call and they've asked me to drink iced water and sit for half an hour, then call them back and let them know what's happening :)

How is everything now?

Fine thank you, the icy water must have woken him up Grin I appreciate the concern :)
