26 weeks 6 days stopped feeling baby

I've been feeling my baby kick for weeks now, and these past three days I haven't felt her kick at all. Is that normal at this stage? I've tried eating things to get her moving, switching positions when I lay down,  but I've felt nothing. I'm really worried something is wrong.

I saw her post on miscarriage forum... I ws shocked as i thought she ws laxy baby.... Coz my Sil wnt thru same when she went to hospital her baby girl ws fine she was jst sleeping now nearly 2yrs old.....

I m nearly 23wks aswell... I started feeling him at 19wks... I never felt him too much just now n thn n i m told to wait till 24wks... Obviously if his kick did notbecome consistent i ll hve to get checked... Honestly i ll never be able to tell unless i start bleeding coz i hve ibs n my bowel movements are never frequent... 2days i ll have constipation n 2 days i ll hve diarrheo with cramps.... As a matter of fact i had back pain n cramping through out pregnancy... Thats my doctors never care... Nyway... I cant imagine what she went through... Words cant evn explain the pain.... I hope u feel ok...

3 days is a long time, you need to get checked, your baby should be giving you 10 kicks in 1/2 hours, if he/she doesn't, definitely get checked!

Did your baby end up passing away? I'm so sorry! I'm so scared im 27 weeks and suddenly I haven't felt him in 3 days. I'm terrified. I do feel the slightest twinges and have an anterior placenta, but his movements used to be so strong. I hope he's okay I can't keep going to the doctor! I have a little hope where I do feel a very faint kick in my bladder.. :(

Go get checked! Asap!!! My baby didn't have a heartbeat. She died and they couldn't give me a reason. The doctor said no fetal movement is an indication something went wrong, unfortunately there's no warning beforehand.

You need to get checked out everything could be perfectly fine but they tend to worry if you don't feel them for more than a day.

I would call your doctor. Make an appt to go see them asap. I actually bought my own fetal Doppler from eBay so I  can hear the heart beat when ever I want. Might be an idea :))

I had a scare similar to yours while pregnant. My OBGYN told me to come in the office if i didn't feel my baby move since that is a sign that something could be wrong. Days had gone by & i didnt feel her move so i went into the office just to find out that she was sleeping away. Maybe your baby is resting. Growth & development does take a toll out on them. If you are worried something is wrong call your OBGYN.
