Reduced movements in pregnancy

6 replies

Im currently 24 weeks pregnant and for the last 3 days babys movements have seriously changed/reduced, I've been to triage 3 days in a row they have a quick listen in and that's it, they just keep saying they can't do no more than that, I'm so anxious can this be normal? Has anyone else had this and babys been fine?

Please ask for a scan to check placental blood flow. Please keep ringing in when you notice reduced movements. They should be offering you a scan after 2 episodes of reduced movements.

I agree with pp, you need to keep going.

possible baby has turned and has back to your belly but of course no way to know for sure without a scan.

Keep going, every single time.

Have they not done a CTG monitor? I would also go back straight away and demand to be properly monitored and have a scan arranged.

Go every time. The health of your baby comes first so any reduced movements need to be checked. Any good midwives will encourage this too, you won't be a nuisance or anything like that, you just need to make sure that baby's doing okay
