Baby hasnt been moving?

Does the baby get less active before going into labor haven't really felt her move since last night except tightening in my left side ... Should I be concerned I'm 38wks 3dys. I also been having severe back pains the past 4 days and pressure and stretching feeling in my area the past two days also last night I rolled over in bed and I guess I moved the wrong way and had bad pain for a good 2-5 mins in my stomach, back and area . I'm really worried cause she isn't moving I just get tight feelings in my left side I'm a ftm so idk :( ease my mind

I felt constant movement right up til my kid was born. She never stopped or even slowed down.

I think you should go get checked out by your dr. Mine tells me every week for the past 4 weeks to go to the hospital if i have any bleeding or if the baby doesn't move ten times in two hours. I don't want to scare you but I would go in.

Drink something cold and sweet, and lay on your side.   if that doesn't wake her up I would go get checked. I was told no matter how far along you are your baby should always move 10 times a hour.

If your concern I'd check to make sure with your doctor :) the tighting is probably what they call Braxton hicks.. there not painful but it's just your body preparing for labor... i heard as time goes by some babies don't move as much cause of lil space they have as they get bigger.. i hope you feel a lil better and everythings okay
