movement?

[Ali_Bartholomew]

My little guy hasn't moved nearly as much since last night. And my belly feels waaay softer and usually its pretty stiff. Could he be in my back? It worries me. Please give me some feedback. I live in a small town and my doc is on vacation.

drink something sone cold water, then lay on ur left side for 20 mins. if still no movements, drink something really sweet and lay on your left it should work. I hope this helps

The longest I went without movement was probably half a day. It worried me too but then she started up with her regular routine of kicking and punching me in every angle possible lol. I do believe it depends how they're laying. And at 25 weeks your little one has lots of room to hide if he chooses too. I would mention it to your doctor whenever he/she's back just for peace of mind but chances are babys just finding new spots to lay :)

Now if you physically feel ill, have feaver, bleeding, lost of mucous plug or amniotic fluid, unsual swelling of face/feet/hands, severe headaches, go straight to your hospital!

Yea I'm 30w 5d mines didn't move for almost a week just hiccups. Finally last night he was moving like crazy but once I got up he stopped. Lol like he wants me to sit down and relax.

I'm 35+2 and my son went almost 2 weeks with hardly moving.. And now he's back to moving!! I tried everything!! All I could feel was him hiccup. LOL but don't worry too much. Eat sugary foods and drink cold water and lay on left side and you should get baby to move. If you ever go a long time without and you're worried call Dr and ask what you can do. That's what I did! :)

That happened to me a few weeks ago, I'm 27+3.. I just poked my belly, drank cold water I felt her turning around and kick me hard.. So your baby is probably in your back :)

Thank you ladies! (: you guys are very reassuring!

This happened to me around 28 weeks I ate something sweet and drank some cold water and laid on my side for a half hour and she finally moved! Hope that helps! Sometimes they can be stubborn :)

I'm 24 weeks 3 days with my second baby. She likes to stay in my back. My tummy will be super hard most of the time, but sometimes it just disappears and I won't feel her for a day or two. My first child was the same way. It used to worry me so much. I'm sure you and baby are ok! =)

[Ali_Bartholomew]

Bump. He's still not budging. :/

[Ali_Bartholomew]

Im 25+4. This is the first time its happened really. I'll try that. Thank you.

How far along are you? Usually you don't have to worry until after 26 weeks. Try drinking a glass or two of cold water and then laying down on your left side.
