LO's haven't been very active today...

I've never talked to my Dr about kick counts or anything...But when I got home and laid down tonight, they've been kinda dormant.  Just a few jabs.  Is that OK?  It's usually a little more, but it's not like I haven't felt anything kwim?

I don't usually feel much during the day when I'm up and around...

Is it different from their normal pattern?  My LO does have quiet days where I feel him, just not much.  Those are usually after his insane days.  So, for me it's a pattern to have quiet days.  If it's unusual for you, then it warrants a call to the doc.

I thinkz it's just a quiet day like you said.  And they were especially active yesterday and they were Perfectly crazy on Monday at the Doc for my non stress test

Then I'd probably not worry.  Not to say that I haven't gone and laid on my left side on those days while drinking a very cold drink....  My LO doesn't react to sugar unless there's a LOT of sugar, but a cold drink gets him moving every time.

When I would freak out about lack of movement, the first thing that the MW would ask me is when did you feel her last? If it was somewhat recently, she would then say everything is fine and to drink sugary juice and lay down. I also agree with PP that sometimes just something cold does the trick, like if I take a cold water bottle and put it right on my belly, it usually gets her to move. Its so stressful though!

The fact that Lily moved, reminded me that I hadn't felt them too mcuh today...But it seems they heard me post, they are givin me a lil more movement this hour!

When I talked to my OBs office about the hb being lower this week than before, she said how it's been hot weather, which might make the baby sleep more. Maybe this is true for your LOs too?

They're probably running out of room. But, if you're worried, it's always worth it to call just to be safe I am sure they're fine though.
