So I turned 26 weeks on Sunday. Since I was around 13 weeks I've been feeling flutters, since I was around 16-17 weeks I've been feeling little kicks and around maybe 19 weeks is when my fiancé was actually able to feel our daughter kick. I'm just going on day 5 and I can feel her move around and switch positions but only very little. She was a VERY active kicker and I haven't felt anything in nearly 5 days. I was woken up yesterday morning to one power kick to the ribs and that was that. My fiancé said that he felt her kicking a little and was playing with her just the other night but very little and not as much as he normally would like I'm asleep. Is this something I should be concerned about? I was thinking maybe now that I'm in my third trimester, things will be slowing down a bit and then picking back up over time. But I was also told that if the kick count is under 10, it isn't normal, especially over 26 weeks. Just need some opinions to ease my mind a bit. Next appointment is the 26th. :)

@skysmommy04 it's been less than 10 and she's been kicking me all day everyday since she first started :( her off days would usually last 1-2 days, not a full 5. I felt her kick a little bit around midnight last night but it wasn't for long at all. It was maybe a couple and the rest were hiccups
It could have also been a growth spurt.. but I was 25 weeks when that happened after the week she started kicking like normal again :)
It’s totally normal! I had the same thing happen to me for a whole week & I was freaking out! My doc said maybe baby switch positions & was facing inward that’s why I wasn’t feeling much but as long as you feel something it’s okay.. also they recommend kick count when you’re 28 weeks
As long as you have 10 kicks a day you’re fine babies have more active days than others
@asandovaln I really hope that's what that is :) I've been feeling her moving around and switch positions but not much from her kicking which is why I got a big worried. I know every time I'm about to switch weeks she gets quiet for a day or two but I figured since she'd be going through a bigger one and I'm going into my third trimester, it's just a growth spurt. Thank you 💖
