Is it normal to not feel baby move or kick very much? He was kicking a lot yesterday. today, I've been so busy I only remember him kicking earlier this morning.. Haven't really felt him this evening..

Babies are usually kind of rocked to sleep when we're more active, so they tend not to move as much. My doctor said it's normal, but if you're concerned, lay down (right side preferable) and play music, or drink something cold and sweet, and count movements. 10+ in an hour is ideal. ☺️

@laneylovesyou, thank you so much! I'm always so worried something is wrong.. And after him moving so much yesterday, it kind of freaked me out.. I'm gonna try what you said and see what happens in the next few hours

No problem! I'm the same way. Definitely try that and see. ☺️ I've also heard that you may not feel consistent movement until 28 weeks or later. Hope everything is okay! 💖

@laneylovesyou, thank you! I hope so also! Still haven't felt anything... But I'm trying not to stress.. I know I felt him this morning.. And what's weird is I usually feel him all throughout the day everyday.. I guess that's why I'm so worried now.. But I was reading that they go through "growth spurts" and they sleep a lot during them.. Or he could be turned with his back towards my stomach.. If I still don't feel anything by lunch tomorrow I'm gonna call my dr and see what she says!

Don't stress- that will only make things worse. They do! Little Man went a few days without moving as much. Good idea though! Keep me updated? ☺️

@laneylovesyou, sorry been busy, but he started moving again! I think he may be turned head down and maybe he's kicking the placenta more and I'm just not feeling him as much! ☺️

It's all good! I'm glad! That's very possible. Keep an eye on him, and definitely bring it up at your next appointment. But for the most part, as long as you get those 10+ kicks in an hour, you're good! ☺️
