Is anyone else experiencing less movement from the little one inside during this INSANE weather?

Just getting a bit worried, you know!!

Yes I'm the pregnant lady worrying about this... baby is moving less! I know its normal for the end of pregnancy but I cant help but worry as he is normally so violent in his movements!

I was thinking, I know you arent supposed to go in a sauna etc. while pregnant... well I sort of feel like I am sitting in a sauna all day. So is anyone else experiencing the same? I am 34 weeks tomorrow.

Salamander-I went to Barbados when I was about 20 weeks with DS2. I didn't get a peep out of him for nearly the whole 2 weeks. I was petrified but he was obviously just picking up the chilled West Indian vibe. I'm sure they take it easy in the heat. Try not to worry XX

I'm definitely feeling less movement when I'm hot - the air con in the office has obviously woken the baby up, though! Currently 28w, if that makes a difference. I was a bit concerned about the heat as well, but as far as I can see the main risk is dehydration, so keep drinking that water!

Im 25 weeks preg and baby is very quiet during the day but as soon as it cools down a bit in the evening or when I have acold bath/shower baby goes mad and starts moving like crazy.

First thought, I bloody hope not, it's all over the place at the moment - then read what others had put and realised that it's waking up as the temp drops (yeah, it's only 25 degrees now!). Otherwise, like me, very lethargic during the day.
