I had Braxton Hicks from about week 32 (currently going through induction at 40 weeks), and that would happen to me.

Go see your midwife if movements have changed, please just go ASAP. Probably baby's just moved positions but you need to check

I think I just think about it to much just had a twister lolly and he's kicking now 😂🤣

My midwives said fizzy pop, a glass of gold water or ice lollies can sometimes wake them up, but as ever they stressed any change in movements or reduced movements needs to be looked at.

I always play Mozart when I want to feel him kick... seems to work most of the time. Been doing it all throughout the pregnancy.

I just give my belly a shove or get up and move around a lot myself.

I have noticed in the later weeks (currently 37) that there are more movements which feel like pushing or pressure, rather than individual kicks, because there isn't as much space for kicks.

I’ve been in for reduced movement monitoring a couple times & each time they’ve brought me an ice cold drink, essentially a cup of ice with a bit of water on my top! Did seem help to be fair..

If you can feel where baby’s bottom might be, which for me is quite easy, I can give that a little shove & that often gets her kicking back at me!
