Babies react to gravity, it stirs them up. Try leaning your tum over tthe edge of bed or sofa without rolling off lol. My boy hates me lying on my right side with a passion. He can be silent for hours but as soon as the right side is weightless or laid on boom he had a tantrum. Cold and sweet drinks do nothing for him, nor any prods, foods etc. And if I'm stressed, he stays silent.

Good luck x x

Thank you guys, i drank some really cold juice and layed on my left side. ive only felt 2 little kicks since then but I'm not sure. i don't know what to do either, my fiance has to be up for jury duty in a few hours and we share a car so idk what to do.

By son hasn't really been moving the last two days, and then I realized I myself didn't really sit still all weekend to really notice him moving. Maybe that could be a reason you haven't felt anything, or ya sleeping patterns

Your baby is probably napping... But try waking him up with something sweet.. Orange or apple juice or fruit punch usually gets him going or drinking ice cold water... try drinking either of them and then lay on your sides.. if you don't feel him with 1-2hrs after that.. you should contact your doctor immediately

My son has irregular sleeping patterns.. mainly cuz of me, some days i stay up till 3-4am and don't wake up till almost lunch.. That usually wears him out during the day but when I get to drinking something cold and sweet, he'll be up in no time.. Hopefully you feel your baby soon! :)
