25w- bump shrinking?!

Has anybody had this. Since the weekend I feel that my bump has shrunk- my partner agrees Shock
Also feel movement has changed, its a similar pattern/ frequency but kicks are more muted- feel more internal than external if that makes sense.

Have others had this? Is it just a position thing?
I'm seeing the midwife next Monday and I can ask her, but I'm a bit worried the bump is going to measure small now.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I’m sure it’s all fine but if you think movements are reduced in any way you should call your triage line. I did this at 25 weeks - I could still feel baby but like you it felt muted and for me also a bit less than normal. baby had indeed just moved to a sideways position and was kicking me in the the placenta which is why I couldn’t feel it as much. Made me feel so much better to get checked and midwifes will never be annoyed.

Sounds like the baby has most likely moved positions, hence change in shape and feeling, but any change in movement needs to be reported straight away so I wouldn’t wait until next Monday to mention it personally.
