Another movement question

in 2nd Trimester
I have a question about movement I am 24w 4d and in the previous weeks I was feeling strong kicks quite frequently... in the last week or so the movements are now only small and not as frequent. i know they have quieter days and he may be turned funny... but is this something to worry about... any ideas whats going on?

    If I had to guess I would say the baby is going through a growing spurt and sleeping alot more. Baby may also be moving more while you sleep. DH told me that DS#2 did that all the time, cause he was getting kicked in the back thinking I was giving him the elbow...

    If you are concerned- what i usually do is drink something cold- or drink some OJ and go lie down for a bit. I usually feel baby pretty quickly.

    With the second- you just don't have as much time to think about feeling the baby move- so i really only notice movement first thing in the morning before i get up with DD and after DD goes to bed and i am trying to rest.

    it's probably just a growth spurt or something. When doing kick counts, ANY movement counts, no matter how small. As long as you're feeling something I wouldn't worry.

    I wouldn't worry about it.  At my 23w appointment my CNM said that they just want you to feel the baby move at least once a day.

    There are days where she's moving like crazy, bouncing up and down on my bladder, etc... and then there are days where she's like "flutter... flutter" and that's it. I try not to freak out -- I have lazy days and "gym days" too. ;-)
