kicking

this week I haven't felt the baby nearly as much as I used to. Could something be wrong? I do feel the baby but I feel him move and not so much kick. Every once in awhile I feel a tiny can hardly tell kick but not that much. I go to the doctor tomorrow for the glucose test, should I say something. I have had bad panic attacks for 8 years and being pregnant gets me worried over everything that I do, and so I question everything. Sorry that I post so many questions but I am a bit on the panic side. Please let me know what you think. TY :)

TY yea I think that if I feel him still moving when he does then everything should be fine. What I am wondering now is how bad stress is on the baby?

Rusty (fiance) promised me that he would not drink tonight and he did then went to sleep. He lies to me and then I get so stressed that my stomach tightens. We never have any money b/c he uses all of it for beer. I swear I will not be suprised if I go into preterm labor. He stresses my *** out bad. I yell at the top of my lungs at him b/c he cant go a day w/out drinking and not anymore than 12 hours w/out it. I can NOT be around his sorry drunk *** anymore. We have been together 13 years, 13 years now too long. I can't do this anymore. All he cares about is his damn beer, nothing else.

hey i wouldnt worry to much about it i think every baby is diffrent...and i also dont feel the baby kick anymore its more like him shifting around in my belly once your baby gets bigger your baby starts to not have enough room in your belly to actully kick so they shift around. i also watched the babies in the womb kicking and some of those kicks are very crazy.lol but i also think that once your baby is bigger that when he/she pushes on your belly is when you can see it more than you can now because they still have enough room to get around in there...i was saposto be due in oct i thought from my lmp but it turns out i was actully preg in dec and not jan so im due sept 14th, and so i have actully seen my belly stretch alot when the baby pushes on it or shifts on it but thats also because i only have about 3.5 wks left...so try not to worry.

I can say right now without counting that he doesn't kick 10 times or even move 10 times an hour. :(

You need to do a kick count and see if you are getting 10 movements in an hour. Any kind of movements.

I have heard that later in pregnancy the baby kinda quits moving and kicking towards the end around 8-9 months, and that alot of women get scared adn wonder why. But then again I was watching babies in the womb kicking on youtube and was wondering why my baby doesn't do that. Does your baby move and kick abunch to where you can see every move?

As long as your feeling movement about every hour no need to worry.  And when in doubt go lay down so you can feel for movments if you are unsure.  I wouldn't worry too much.  Things are getting tight in there and the baby is probably running out of room to move lol!!
