Wants your baby dropps is it true that he might not move as much?

Question

My baby hasnt' been moving as much. I mean its been very skirmish at times. I know he's getting crowded in there someone told me wants they dropp low into the pelvis that they wont move as much. Is this true ? And he's not active at all at night, and everyone says your baby should be very active at night. Is this true

Answer 1

It is true that baby is not as active once he has dropped. There just isn't much room there and baby is also resting up for the ordeal to come (being born). I have had four and they all were more quiet at night. (I assume out of consideration for me needing rest!) Congratulations...it won't be long now.

Answer 2

Your baby has a harder time to move as there isn't much room the farther along you are.  Not sure where you are at your pregnancy.  I am 37 weeks and I too felt as if he was not moving much at night.  However, if I put my hand on my belly I could feel him squirming and of course that would put a smile on my face.  I did want to add that you may not feel him move a lot during your time of labor.  but he is moving.  Have a wonderful birth!

Answer 3

a lot of people dont notice at night the movements as u are trying to get what sleep you can.  they tend to quiten just before birth i dont know why.  if your worried give your midwife a ring for your own piece of mind.  good luck it wont be long x
