When to worry about reduced foetal movements???

[Pheebe]

Hi All

I'm 36+2 today and overnight LOs movements seem to have changed dramatically. He's still moving, HB is strong and regular but there just seem to be less movements and they aren't nearly so strong. This has been going on for 2 days now. If coincided with my BP going up a bit (spiked at 140/90).
I'm going to call my mw tomorow anyway but do you think its worth calling the FMAU today??

Yep - call - that's what they're there for. Don't risk it - not worth it for the sake of a phone call.

it could be that he's getting ready for the big event. but call anyway. good luck x

Did you call them?

Hiya

Yep, I called them and popped in to be monitored. He was very slow and sleepy but after a cup of coffee woke up enough for them to be confident all is well. He's definitely slowed down and they want me to keep an eye on things and go back if he slows down any further but his HB is good and strong and they picked up about 5 moderate BHs in the 40 minute trace they did which is apparently a good sign

thanks for the advice
