30 weeks decreased movement

I'm 30 weeks along and over the past few days I've noticed less movement during the day. Although when I do my kick counts I am still getting 10 kicks in 30-40 minutes. Is it possible I'm just not feeling the kicks during the day as I have an active job or is this something to be concerned about?

My next appointment is Tuesday so I will definitely bring it up. We also have a 3D ultrasound that day as well. It's so hard to know if everything is good in there when you can't see them :(

Call your Dr and tell them.  10 movements in 30 minutes is good BUT if you've noticed it's less than normal always call.  They may say don't worry or they may have you in for a quick check.  It is ALWAYS better to be over cautious with reduced movement.

I am 38+1 I feel my lil man move once I am out of work and not moving as much. I had a check up yesterday and my on said you may not feel him move while working since I am on.my feet moving for a good 8 hrs but when I'm home he's moving none stop. I find if I'm worried I lay on my left side or push on my belly a lil and he moves or he pushes back it funny then I know he's still ok. When do you go to your doctors next? You can always call and get seen earlier if you think something is wrong. I haven't once done the kick count it's my first pregnancy and I would freak myself out all the time since during the day I don't feel him. He is most likely sleeping cause he is up all evening and night. Your lil one is probably the same way sleeping during the day.

If you have an active job you won't feel the movement's. I don't feel mine during the day but when I'm home and resting oh boy do I feel them. My doctor even said during the day of you are moving around you aren't going to feel the baby's movements so no worries
