No, less movement is not normal. I would wait a few hours and if you still feel like his movement isn't normal I would call into you L&D at the hospital and see what they say. Or just head in to the hospital, they will probably do a stress test. It may just be normal, baby may just be tired today, but I'm not sure it's worth the risk if you notice a real change in movement

Yes it is normal. My doctor told me that you'll feel less kicking and start to feel more turning as the baby starts to get into the dropping position. I'm 33 weeks.

No it isn't normal, babies movements shouldn't reduce cause of lack of room or because your closer to labour (their movements shouldn't even reduce when you are in labour). It is very dangerous to be listening to outdated advise. Any reduced movements need to be checked out. Better to be safe than sorry.

Actually my midwife told me I should call or go to hospital if there are any changes in my baby movement and I should not wait ... she gave me an information leaflet that say" if your are unsure about the movement you should lie on your left side and focus on the baby's movement for 2 hours , if you don't feel at least 10 or more movement over the 2 hours then contact your midwife".. I hope every thing will be ok with you

Babies also sleep more at this time so that could be why you feel your little one move less but if you are ever  worried call your obgyn right away and see what they recommend

I'm 33 weeks tomorrow and my baby still moves a lot. She has her lazy days and just to make sure she's ok I drink cold orange juice or eat something sweet. I was told by my doctor the baby should move at least 10 times in two hours. I dint count because I feel her a lot but like I said she has her lazy days that's when you have to so something to wake them up and make sure everything is alright. If you are really worried I would suggest to go to labor and delivery idk if you have one of those. Ours is 24/7. Best of luck :)
