Hi everybody,

I am a member of indiaparenting and always go through the message boards, as the messages are useful for me.

I am in my 24 week of pregnancy, this being my first preggy. Some days before I used to get baby movements now and then, which was a heavenly experience knowing that a life is growing inside u and that it is okay. I was used to the movements. But for the last few days, I am not feeling any movements.
Could anybody give me the reason for the same?

Bye,

Meeta

how r u doing?Howsz the baby doing?

Well evn I ' m in my start of 23rd week,n last week,ie 22nd week baby movements were not very regular for 2,3 days..Seems like babies want to observe silence when they' re in 22nd to 23rd week:-)...Do not worry,as mou said,our babies wud be doing sum movements or atleast hiccups,since we were busy we cudnt feel the baby movements at all..Its okie...Chill..Babies movements wudnt be very consistent in this 22nd-23rd week.So its okie...As now we r just able to feel the babies movements(ie definately we cud feel it when we where plus 18 weeks,but they were very feable,n more like fluttering...)Now as the baby is lil big,we can feel its movements n hiccups,very clearly..Its just that we have 2 get used to this routine.i.eVery clearly able 2 diffrentiate baby' s movements..n I guess it will take sum more time for us..May be by then end of second trimester baby' s movements patterns we wud be able 2 very clearly identify..

From the start of Third trimester,it wud be better 2 keep a close monitor of the baby' s movements.If One day u miss baby' s movements u shd consult ur doctor then...Now its okies.I' m sure babies wud be moving around,just that its very feable..we cannnot make it out.....Take for example mine,last week,2,3 days continuosly it didnt move(or lemme put it this way,I cud not make out its movements),but the 3rd day,it was back in action,kicking n doing hiccups...So momies ,its okie,do not worry.Our babies r very safe inside our tummy:-).....so do not worry mommies...

lotsa luv
megs mou replied. Hello meeta and rev,
As far as my doctor has told me, the baby can be very active at some days and at some days u may not feel much movement ,its natural because u may be very busy all through the day to feel the movements inside.But if u don' t feel any movemnt for more than 24hrs just have a check up/call up ur doc and listen to what she/he have to say.
My suggestion is -try to rest and concentrate on the movements.You should feel something....atleast some kind.
Take care.
luv,

As Meeta says, the same Query I was about to post today, I am also in my 23/24th week. For the Past 3 days I am not feeling any movements. The baby was very active last week and I was able to feel the movements the whole day. This makes me much worried and I am not able to concentrate in anything, just always trying to feel the move.
