When did your kicks turn to squirms!? I'm 28 nearly 29 Wks and the kicks seems a lot less. Starting to get paranoid about it Shock. I'm petite and there is not a lot of room xxx

I'm 30 weeks and was just saying today it's much more like squirms now. Saying that I am still counting a squirm as a kick as the mw said to count kicks/movements to make sure it's > 10 a day. Have you asked the mw about it?

I'm just eating some chocolate to see if i can encourage a kick or lots of squirming. A squirm is such a different feeling. I prefer kicks. God you can drive yourself mad with baby worries Smile

If you're at all worried then contact the maternity unit where you're booked. Number of movements isn't as important as the pattern of movements and every baby has his/her own pattern - if it changes you should get it checked out.
