Fetal movement

The last two days, I noticed less fetal movement. First time mom anxiety is getting to me. Anyone else experiencing this? I’m 25 weeks. Contacted my OB but haven’t heard back yet.

Drink some water or juice and lay down on your left side and see if you feel any. If not don’t hesitate to call you Dr! Trust your intuition! Always better to go check!

@Kaitee doing that as we speak… nothing yet. Only been a few minutes. 🙏🏼 I’ll call them in the morning. Thank you

@Jackie good! I hope you feel something soon and if not I’d even call at night!

*im having twins so at risk for preterm labor and my dr just had me watch a whole video on kick counting and urging me to come in if I feel like anything is slowing down. I’m extra cautious!! Obviously you know what’s best for you 🫶🏻

@Kaitee well at least you’re well informed on everything! That’s good! I do have anterior placenta, so I know that might make the movements harder for me to feel…but everyday prior it’s been really easy. So naturally worrying. I’m assuming he just changed positions and is maybe kicking inward instead. But I’ll get checked tomorrow. Better to be safe!

@Jackie I have anterior and felt like movement had slowed down as well! I'm also 25 weeks and had gotten worried about her because I feel like I haven't felt her as much but I think she just changed positions? I had started feeling her again here and there and it was in a different spot so I think she flipped haha

@Alicia I called my doc! They said to drink water and lay on my left side for an hour. I did that and felt him moving. So I was overthinking for nothing 🫶🏼 I’m sure you’re fine! 🩵

Drink something very cold. Walk around a bit. Sing to him/her. I had this happen just last week, but it was for 7 days straight.... I was just coming out of a 2 week depression and barely moved. So he just decided not to move, cuz I wasn't. I was a bit nervous, but didn't let the anxiety creep all the way in.... Your baby is ok.

@Jeannetta thank you!!!! 🙏🏼 glad you am baby are healthy as well. I was coming out of a depression as well so I’m sure that had an affect. So interesting

Normally should not worry before 28w

@Jackie Thank you! I am only just now seeing this haha. My little girl must have flipped inwards because she was kicking my rectum for a day and then flipped back out and I've been able to feel her moving normally again😂😅

@Alicia not the rectum kicking!
