Movement at 27 weeks

[Catk34]

I ended up going to the maternity hospital on Saturday as my baby hadn’t really moved as much and the movements felt very weak.
Midwife listened in to heartbeat and was satisfied everything was fine. Then the next 2 days baby is doing gymnastics and karate in there.
Today the baby is having another quiet day. My anxiety has been pretty bad this whole pregnancy and now I’m wondering if I should call them again. Maybe this is just normal pattern - active days and quiet days? Is this to be expected? I’ll be going in 3 times a week at this rate…

I can still feel movement and have done regularly throughout the day but it’s just like small twitches now and again.

call them. They’d rather see you and reassure then the worst happen.

If you're worried you can call and explain that to them.

What I will say though is that (from my own experience in 2 pregnancies) it is normal to have quieter and more lively days. It's sometimes dependent on how active you are, what you eat and drink, if you have a hot bath, if you're really busy one day etc etc. I was reassured if I felt them move frequently throughout the day.

Also 27 weeks is still early and baby has plenty room to change position and tuck into the little nooks and crannies which will all affect what you feel.

I was told to start paying extra attention for a pattern developing from 28 weeks but even now at 32 weeks i wouldn't say it's exactly the same every day
