Reduced movement 29 weeks
Reduced movement 29 weeks
Ugh I'm freaking out. Baby boy has been so quiet today ? rang the midwife and got the usual "eat something sugary and lie down" I've already done that ? heartbeat is great on the doppler but I'm still terrified.

Try not to worry baby is getting bigger and running out of room so it's a little more compact in there

I don't want you to write this off as something menial because if you feel something Is wrong it might be but at 28-29 weeks my baby had a major growth spurt and rarely moved. 30 weeks rolled around and he was bouncing around like his normal self again. And 27-30 weeks is a common time for grow spurts.

I have quiet days every now and then. Butterfingers and brownies always work for me! Or ice water gets him moving.

Don't rely on the Doppler is what I was advised. Pse insist on being checked it's the only way you'll settle. I was in & out, but each time they were brilliant & my DD was just lazy!
Good luck

Ok I've gotten some good kicks and movements since writing this. Not enough to ease my mind but I am breathing a little easier. I have a scan early in the morning so that's giving me some peace of mind too. Hopefully the little brat is just being lazy. I've had a bad chest infection and flu all week so that could be something to do with it too. Fingers crossed the scan goes well

@gray I know right! I'll have so many grey hairs by the time this little boy gets here ? hopefully he's just going through a growth spurt. Really need the next few hours to fly ? he's still moving though so that's making me slightly less anxious....slightly....

Ahhhh the lazy days. I get them like yesterday I had one. I'm sure LO is sleeping away. Try to drink something ice cold.

He's only taking after his mama with the lazy days I suppose ? can't blame the poor little dude. He's been moving great the past few hours so I feel better.
