How often does a baby in the womb sleep at around 5 months??

Question

I haven't felt my baby kick yet today and i am getting worried, i even ate breakfast and still nothing. i am so scared!!

Answer 1

I'm almost to the 5 month marker myself, sorry, I don't know the answer, but I'm looking forward to someone answering your questions as I've noticed my baby's not as active as he seemed to be last week. Here, I just found this link...

Answer 2

Hey, I'm around the same as you. Whenever I don't feel him move for a little while I get nervous too. Or if I just feel a little one and then nothing again. It seems every time that I'm just about at a full panic he'll give a little kick. I think it must be normal, I've heard lots of other moms say that its like this at the halfway point, some days super active, other days just kinda chillin out I guess. Some people say if you eat something sweet they move, and mine sure did yesterday. My step mom told me last night that if you lay in a warmish tub (remember, nothing too hot) they go crazy. Anyway, I hope this helps. Good Luck!

Answer 3

I am 5 months pregnant and I felt my boy move around 12 weeks. I did not feel my daughter move till I was 16 weeks. I too have felt less movement in him the past week. I think it is due to a grow spurt. There will be days when you will feel your baby more than others. It is normal.

Answer 4

This may be a crucial growing time. Mine both did the same thing at about 5 months. Try lying still and seeing what happens. They seem to want to be more active when you sleep.

Answer 5

i'm a week shy of 5 months and my little one kicks in the afternoon and at night 8-9-10pm(ish) I get nervous in the morning when I don't feel (it) kick but I think (it) probably does and maybe that there so small we may not notice everytime.(it)-we find out the sex next week!!)
