2nd Trimester

LO barely moving now

Last week LO was giving me lots of movement, enough that DH could feel & I could see from the outside.  Now, I barely feel it from the inside.  What gives?  I know LO can be less active some days but this seems to go to the extreme.  Anyone else have this?

Re: LO barely moving now

  • I believe if the baby shifts positions at this point it may make a big difference in how much you feel it move.  I will go several days where I feel the baby all day and it's really strong and then go several days where I just feel small movements a few times a day.

  • I am going through the same exact thing.  Yesterday into today I barely felt her at all.  I usually feel her a lot a couple hours before bed time and then I usually feel her around morning time (like now) and I don't feel a thing.  I hate it.  But I think it's normal.  Don't worry.  If you don't feel the LO maybe for a couple days then maybe I would start to worry.  I'm going to go eat something and try to wake her up! LOL!  She loves PBJ sandwiches (at least I think she does, she always starts kicking away when I eat one).

  • I don't know why it happens but I have the same thing. LO will be super active some days and then barely feel her others. I hear it's still early for consistent movement though so I try to not worry.

  • My dr said only to worry if I don't feel anything.  I still feel a little, just not much.  I expected that movements would be getting stronger @ this point, but like pp said, perhaps LO has changed positions & that's the difference.  Hopefully LO will start giving me some big kicks again soon.

  • I have had the same thing going on the last couple days.  I'll feel him every once in a while but it hasn't been as often or as strong as before.  Glad to know that it's normal, but I still hope he gets back to his old ways soon!
  • I am the same way. He was karate chopping my insides last week and now it seems like he is just chillin'. lol
  • I had this a couple days ago.  Movement decreased on Sunday and Monday.  We went to the OB for our monthly appointment on Tuesday and found out that LO was upside down (head lower and feet near by ribs).  I'm assuming this is why the movement hasn't been the usual.  Now she is kicking the heck out of me again, so I'm assuming she is back to her normal position.  Try not to worry.
