Girls late in 3rd trimester, decreased fetal movement?
I'm 35 weeks and since Saturday I've barely felt her move, I feel her but its so limited. I've read online that they decrease their movement towards the end, but I just feel like its so dramatic. I'm not scheduled to go to the dr to next Monday but I'm a little worried. Anyone else experiencing a decrease it movement both in intensity and quantity?

I heard that it's normal because they are getting more and more limited on space. As long as you feel movement every now and then it should be fine. If you don't feel movement for a while, I'd call the doc.

Totally normal. There is not much room in there for them to move around right now

Yes, that happened with my LOs a few weeks ago....I actually posted about it on the multiples board.
I have also brought it up to my docs and they are not worried at all.
For me, I always feel them when I go to bed and sit a certain way. So, maybe just figure out what time of day/position you feel your baby and pay attention to it during those times.

See and I'm worried the complete opposite reason! I am still having so much movement at 35 weeks.. I'm worried my baby is small or something because he still moves around like crazy!
This worrying for us! It's awful!

My OB said the same things. The space is very limited once it reaches the 3rd trimester. My  is moving but not as much as she was when it was around the 2nd trimester.

If you're concerned, I would call your Dr. A past poster had similar concerns and unfortunately it was too late so it's def something to take seriously

But yes, decreased movement is common late in the game....
