Is it normal for movements to change?

I should probably know, this bein my 3rd, but I can't remember!

I'm 29+1 and I'm not getting many of the hard kicks I was getting. More slow, soft, rolling movements. Is this because baby is getting bigger?

I think their movements do change because they have less room to make big movements. But check with your midwife, I can't hurt to be monitored. Better safe than sorry

A change in patterns of movement is normal, its a warning sign if they stop suddenly or decrease significantly in a short time.
Always call for advice from a mw if you are ever unsure and they will most probably do a ctg to be safe .

Thank you. I've just had a few big kicks in the bath and baby is moving all the time, it's just the movements are different.

This is the one question that gets me answering every time! Call your midwife! They will probably call you in for monitoring. Google count the kicks and never feel a burden.
