I'm 30 weeks pregnant, and I feel consistent active movements throughout the majority of the day. However, once it hits midnight, my baby seems to have an off switch!
I wake up multiple times in the night and it's so still and silent in there. And when I wake up in the morning, I lie in bed for 45 mins and again, totally still, not even a twitch.
As soon as I get up baby wakes up and starts jumping around like he's ready for the day Grin

Does or has anyone else experienced this? Everything I read says babies are usually more active at night. I'm not worried or anything, I've gotten used to the sheer panic every morning when he hasn't moved for hours!

I'm hoping (naively) that he keeps this routine up after birth haha

My baby has a 'crazy hour' every night between 9pm-10pm to the point it's uncomfortable, then nothing really till I get up and eat the following morning.
I assumed when it says more active at night that was her active night time.
I think as long as you are having regular patterned movements everything is fine.
Any issues though chat with your midwife x

Hopefully a good sign your baby will sleep once it’s here. If it’s a typical pattern then it isn’t anything to worry about. But if you are worried, have a glass of very cold water and l Something sugary. Then lay on your left hand side for an hour. That should encourage some kicks. Definitely worth speaking to your midwife about it x

I’m exactly the same!

I’m nearly 31 weeks and I’ve not been woken up once by him kicking!

He has a conga throughout the day, I go to bed, he jiggs around a bit, I fall asleep and I don’t feel again until I have my breakfast the next morning!

I’m up to pee about 3 x in the night as well and nothing!

Finger crossed it’s a sign of things to come eh?? 😂😂 I doubt it lol
