Second baby movement less than first... Prediction?!

My first was such a big mover. He stretched my abdomen out in every direction, even the midwives called others to look at my stomach, one antenatal appt. He turned out to be a very very lively non stop, slightly feral (in a lovely way) little boy

This pregnancy couldn't be more different. I can barely feel anything, just a couple of very occasional polite nudges! Placenta is on the front this time which I know dampens a lot, but even the movements I do feel, presumably around placenta are tiny and infrequent.

So... Did anyone have this and the quiet baby inside actually turned into a quiet baby on the outside?!!

With DS my placenta was at the front so often didn’t feel anything but when I did it felt like he was playing fruit ninja with my organs. He’s actually the most calm placid little boy ever now! Currently 31 weeks with a baby who seems to be nice and gentle and I feel like he/she will make up for it and be a wind child, complete opposite of their brother! But I live in hope I’ll have two calm children Grin

Wild child not wind child! Oops!

Yep my DC1 was a real wriggler and is just as full of beans now at 4.

DC2 didn't move nearly as much, and is the most chilled out, easy-going child you could meet.

Currently pregnant with DC3 who is the squirmiest of all, so not sure what I've let myself in for!
