3rd Trimester

No real kicking today

i'm about 34 weeks. And today i dont feel alot of kicking some butterfly like feelings but thats about it.

I even ate some food and no big movement.  Usually he'll move around a bit after a meal.  Should I be worried OR is it ok?

  • I'm sure you are fine.  The more further along you are the less room they have in there to move.  It's also common to have a quieter day.

    Try drinking a glass of ice water and laying on your side.  That usually does the trick for me!

  • I am 32 weeks, measuring 36 consistently and I found that in the last week and a bit the movements have changed greatly.  She used to power kick all day now she is running out of room and her movements are almost muffled.  I can feel her move, but it's more in a push the belly out of way movement.  I can watch my belly and she her moving all around but it's less about feeling and more about watching now!  It's pretty normal this late.

     

  • I would call into L&D and see what they think.  This happened to me less than a week before Elijah was born, I couldn't get a kick out of him to save my life.  As soon as I was hooked up to the monitors, he went crazy!  I almost felt silly, but really, knowing he was fine was worth it!   Better safe, than sorry!

  • That happened to me when I was around 34-36 weeks, if it happens again, eat or drink something really sugary and see if that works - apple juice and/or a candy bar.

    Also, he might have been sleeping.

    I know our minds wander to the worst but it's best to remain as calm as possible.

  • I experience this somedays.  On Monday I hardly felt LO move and I went to my reg 2 week appt and my MW said LO was facing my spine and so I just wasn't able to feel her that much.  I heard her hb and all is well.
