Re: Why is baby not moving today?
Totally normal sometimes baby just wants to chill and lay low!
If you want to get baby moving...drink OJ and lay down and baby will be moving like crazy again!!!!!!

Re: Why is baby not moving today?
Baby should still be moving but not as much towards the end, and the movements are smaller - rolling/shifting as opposed to kicking. Lay on your side after drinking juice and if you don't feel anything after 20/30minutes call your OB. Always better to be paranoid and safe than anything else

Re: Why is baby not moving today?
I wouldn't worry. Since I've started feeling the baby I've noticed that some days it's bouncing around in there like it's hosting a dance-a-thon, and other days I only get a little nudge here or there. I've been told it's very normal.
Today is a slow day for my LO. I think it's picking up on my "blah" mood and the dreary weather.

Re: Why is baby not moving today?
Thanks ladies, thats pretty much what I though. Im 26 w, so not even really tracking movements yet. Although at first I found the kicks and stuff uncomfortable or "funny feeling', now I love them and miss them when they dont happen for a few hours!
I think maybe I;ll drop by crumbs for a cupcake =) That should do the trick right? =)))))
So hungry today! Maybe LO needs more food!

Oh I didn't realize - I'm sorry I thought you were further along! Yeah at that stage it's fairly normal to go some time without feeling the baby but I bet if you are still for a while you will feel them

Re: Why is baby not moving today?
My is like this...she's super active for days, then she'll be super quiet for a few days. I've noticed it seems she gets quiet right before I "pop" more, so I think it's probably a growth spurt kind of thing.

Re: Why is baby not moving today?
Ok i'm going to disagree with the pp's. Sorry I will be 27wks tomorrow and while he has days he's not as active I KNOW i'll feel him after I eat or when I lay down. You should still feel him moving. No it's to early for real kick counts, but if it's a HUGE change I would call. You can also try laying down, drinking juice, or eating that yummy cupcake. Not moving as much is normal, not really moving at all, at this point, is not. Also I notice when i'm up a lot and walking or doing other things I don't feel him as much so could you just be over doing it?

Re: Why is baby not moving today?
I had a couple of days where I didnt feel moving, I totally freaked out but I called my doc and told me it was completely normal at that stage. I know its hard not to worry but Im sure your LO is just resting and having a quiet day.
