Umm what could be the problem/s if you
dont feel your baby moving around as much
as it should?
I spoke too my midwife, and she said im
supposed too be feeling on average 10
movements a day.
Im awake on average from 10am till 1am,
and at most I feel 2-3 movements a day,
most days none at all.
Im worried now, after she saod about the
10 movements a day, and I was wondering
if anyone new what could be causing the
lack of movement.

Perhaps you should call her again. Tell
her that you only feel movements once in a
while.

Tell your midwife you don't feel that many
movements, but don't worry. I didn't
feel much with my first. She was calm.
But my second was a little wild cat in
utero and still is btw!! Lol

Im 32 weeks pregnant.
My midwife listened too the heart beat,
and said everything sounded fine, and
said that my babys growing just fine
aswell.
She told me too moniter the movements for
the next couple of days, ive monitered 2
days now, and ive had only 2 movements,
yesterday evening one after the other.
And baby had hiccups in the morning.
Ive not felt anything today, and I
hadent felt anything in the 2 days before
yesterday.
Im getting more worried about it all now
though, because I have it all on paper.
I dont know what kind of search to do in
google too find out what the problem may
be.

Well if you are almost due you wont feel
as much movement as you did before and
that is because of the limited space that
the baby has, but you are suppose to feel
some movement. If you feel scared they
can always do a stress test to check on
the baby or a non stress test. I hope
everything is ok keep us up to date

A stress test is were they take this
monitor and the hook it up with a belt
around your tummy. It will measure
everything. Babies heart rate movements
and contractions.

its quite a strange feeling really, I
notice it when my belly makes sudden
jerks, with regular pattern to them. It
also kinda feels like a slight popping
your stomach, kinda similar too what
babys first movements feel like.
It could be diffrent with everyone though.

Ok, thanx for the help.
Ive decided too not worry about it, and
talk too my midwife again on thursday,
since thats when im seeing her.
I dont really feel like going into the
hospital at the moment, I hate them,
even though maternity ward isnt all that
bad.
