Lots of Braxton Hicks and less movement

27 weeks and having more Braxton Hicks than you can shake a stick at. I've had them since 21 weeks so normal for me but today I feel like they've been every 2 or 3 minutes all day! And I'm just not sure if that's normal? And now her movements have been less than I'm used to, I can still feel her but really low, not at the sides or top and not as frequently. Any thoughts on what this could be? Today I have been flat out exhausted, pretty much not been able to move all day which is unusual for me too. Something just feels "odd" not necissarily wrong but not right either? X

Phone the hospital and get checked out. Anything to do with movements should be checked straight away

Agree with PP - please get checked.

Don't want to alarm, but I had lots of Braxton Hicks close together (in batches though, not all day) over a period of a couple of weeks and later found out it's a sign of placental abruption - which I had at 33 weeks (DS born at 34 weeks, luckily everything OK all things considered).

Hopefully scan will show all OK for you.

Oh gosh @minimaxi that's scary! I'm glad that things worked out ok for you in the end. It would seem I'm the best at giving other people advice but terrible at listening to my own. My husband is also saying "sure it's fine" and I then go along with it...
