I am 21wks 5days. I had a normal ultrasound last week, showing a very active baby. For the past two days, I have noticed that the baby seems to be moving alot less. I still feel kicks here and there, but not the flurry of movement that I was feeling for two weeks prior. I had been feeling a great deal of movement in the evening after dinner. Last night, I felt maybe three movements in four hours. I felt a few kicks today (maybe four). Should I be concerned? Could the baby be facing a different direction, thus making kicks less perceptable? Should I call my doctor? Thanks in advance!
