Today I got a little nervous because I hadn't felt my baby move all day. She is usually very active during the day. I'm at 38 weeks, so her movements aren't very pronounced anymore, but I'm used to feeling something! (i.e. squirming around.) She started moving around about an hour ago, and I'm going to mention the lack of movement to my doctor tomorrow when I go to my appointment.
What tricks have you all used to get your baby to start moving? I tried eating, drinking some sugary juice, a hot shower, a bright light on my belly...everything I could think of. I was about to try music through headphones on my belly when she started to move.
Also, is it true that they don't move as much in the days leading up to delivery? A friend told me she heard this from her doctor.
Any ideas? Thanks!! :)
