I'm 26 weeks pregnant And for the last 4 days, she has only moved about 4 times a day if that, but before that she was always moving around all day and all night!! What could be some reason for this? Is there something wrong?Please answer!

Call your OB/Gyn ASAP. He/she will tell you what to do.
I'm 29 weeks pregnant. The same thing happened to me two days ago. I called my doctor after noticing that my baby was moving less. She told me to go to the ER / OB triage.
Two instruments which looked like oversized stethoscopes were placed on top of my belly for around an hour, and were held together by an elastic band around my waist. These checked for heartbeat and movement. Was given a glass of apple juice. Everything was fine.
Everybody in the ER said I did the right thing when I called my doctor and went to the ER. For anything that worries you, call your doctor ASAP.

Please dont worry so much :) You dont need to stress over this. I went through this EXACT same thing at the EXACT same week of pregnancy!!! Funny huh!?!?! I was 26-27 weeks pregnant and the baby all of the sudden stopped moving and i was very scared and nervous!! Come to find out week 26-28 is full of growing, they go through a huge growing spurt and they sleep ALOT. Im now 29 weeks and everything is back to normal and i just had an ultrasound yeasterday and everything looks perfect :) Try not to worry, At least you feel her move daily, let that calm your fears :)

You should count to see if she is moving less than 8 times in two hours in the morning and evening. If the baby slows down, it could be a serious sign. Call the doctor now and tell them you think she's moving less. They'll talk you through it.

When do I contact my obstetrical provider?
Call your provider if your baby has less than 10 movements in 2 hours
Call your provider if your baby has a significant or sudden change in movements.
Do not wait for 24 hours when there is no fetal movement or significant changes in the movements.
When in doubt, contact your provider.

you should go for an ultrasound. I'm sure everything is fine, 4 times/day is not alot, but at least it's some.

Try eating or drinking something sweet............if that does not work, call your OB doc, or just go to the ER and demand an ultrasound.

Drink something sweet within an hour still nothing, consult your doctor ASAP

call you Ob and follow their instructions...it's probably nothing to be worried about but it will set you at ease, laying in a tub of warm water always relaxed me and then my son would get really active.
