Less active at night?

I'm due November with a baby boy. It is currently 11:30pm. He's usually super active at night, but I haven't felt him move since like 6 or 7 this even. Should I be concerned? I don't want to worry my husband as he hates the hospital, but I also don't want to not do nothing if he's not moving as he should.

Maybe baby is just sleeping or comfortable

@Saania maybe. But he's always more active at night, thats why im alittle 😬

better to be safe than sorry xx Maybe have some ice cold water or something high in sugar like an apple? I used to poke and prod at my tummy to get him moving lol But overall, better to be safe than sorry! Don’t let that alarm you though

@Bianca this boy is not even born yet and is trying to give me a heart attack. He's moving like crazy now when I'm finally trying to sleep.

@Kelly hahahahah they never stop giving you heart attacks - even when they’re born 😬😬 I am so thankful that he is moving, it’s annoying when you’re trying to sleep but you’ll miss it 😆

I had this last night, that it had been over 4 hours, to my recollection, and so I patted and rubbed my tummy until he moved. I can understand it is worrying, but besides patting/rubbing, some sugar or moving around might help. Try not to worry too much. However, you know your baby and its movements best, so you're never wasting anyone's time by having it checked out.

My midwives always said "I'd rather see you 50 times, than have something go wrong!" If you're concerned about *anything*, go get checked out! Your hubby can be a big boy and deal with it - your baby's health is more important than his dislike of hospitals.
