2nd Trimester

23 wks...how much do you feel baby?

Just curious....my movement seems to have decreased a lot since Sunday and I know it's normal but of course I worry.  I have barely felt her the past couple of days :/  Anyways...just curious how much everyone else is feeling around 23 wks.  TIA!

Re: 23 wks...how much do you feel baby?

  • I'm feeling him a lot, but this has been a very active baby since 15weeks... once a week it happens that he has a lazy day and doesn't move around that much, but overall he's a little monster!!!?

  • She was moving around pretty regularly but this week there has been a significant increase.
  • I just started to feel her a few weeks ago (maybe 2)- I think it is still flutters, but stronger. It is hard to explain, but I dont think they are full kicks yet- DH cant feel them.

    She is really active when I am at work talking to people- I always want to laugh but I cant. She is not so active when I am at home though. I thought the same thing, i feel the past few days she has calmed down (except when she is pressing on my stomach and making me completly full after 2 bites of a meal). 

    I think it is normal- we are not supposed to be kick counting until 26 or 28 weeks anyway.

  • I feel my LO mainly in the evening/night. He gets started around 6 or 7 and keeps it up until about 11 or so. If he's less active though, i do freak out. Try not to worry.
  • It depends on the day for us. Yesterday and the day before he was moving around all day long. Today, I think he is taking a break. I've felt a few little kicks and wiggles but not a whole lot. I think he needs a nap after these past few days or non-stop dancing!

    I had a day last week where I was convinced that he hadn't moved at all. I was all ready to call the dr. in a panic and then right as I picked up the phone, he started to move and didn't stop all night.

    GL - I'm sure everything will be fine!

  • I have days of tons of movement and kicks and days where there is just a little bit.  I talked to my dr. and she said that it is normal and the baby doesn't get consistent until 28 weeks (usually when u start kick counts) so there may be some days that there is less movement and not to worry :)  It is hard not to worry because I still do but I guess it is very normal!

    I'm not quite at 23 wks yet but my babe moves around a LOT - she is very active.  Last week, she was very quiet for 2 days but was then back to normal.  I'm sure you're ok.  have you tried drinking something sweet and laying on your side? or the flashlight trick?
  • Over today and yesterday she has become very very active. I feel her moving around pretty much all day when before it was just one very active period in the evening.

  • i  feel him quite a bit. I worry that this little man never sleeps! But we will have the occassional day when he rests a bit.
  • I feel her a lot, mostly at night but sometimes also at work which always surprises me (I always forget I am pregnant :-).

  • He has his own schedule already he kicks from about 8am-10am then lil around noon then he doesn't start up again until 9pm or so... They are getting stronger by the day!
