Having had a busy busy day today I've only just noticed that either the baby hasn't moved since this morning or has moved very little.
I definitely felt a movement this morning and is felt quite uncomfortable, like the baby was changing position as aposed to just kicking, stretching etc.

I have drank some lemonade, eaten maltesers and laid down (either side), DH has also had words and have only had 1 lone movement.

What else can I try - am 27 week btw and feeling regular movements for a long while now

Sorry for not getting back sooner. Has been a manic few days.

Baby is absoltuely fine, movements soon picked up around Sunday lunch time - I called midwife to be on the safe side and she was happy to see how things went as I was still feeling movements just not as many.
Picked up again since and been making up for his/her little rested period.

Thanks again
