Why my fetal sometimes very active and sometimes not at all?

i am in the 29week,my baby one day is very active and after that he doesnt move at all,or he moves once or twice a day.we made ultrasound and he is ok,and i am eating in a good way.

Babies have their own temperments in the womb, they are already people by 29 weeks. Some days baby feels like being active, some days baby wants to veg and relax all day. The more active you are, the less you will feel baby, and the opposite is true: the more relaxed you are the more you will feel baby. Your baby is totally fine!

I was pregnant with twins, and one baby was active all the time, and the other was once in a while. Now they are one years old, and their activity hasn't changed! One is always moving (even in her sleep, this child never stops), and the other is so relaxed and easy-going. It's so fun!

If you are really worried, you can rent "electric stethescopes", that makes it able for you to hear the heart-beat clearly. You need some gel to make contact, but then at home you can give yourself peace of mind. I had one for the last part of my pregnancy, I loved laying there listening to my babies hearts beating!!! Check with your OB/GYN and see where you can rent one (I borrowed mine from the YMCA).

Have a great rest of your pregnancy!

Just like you and me fetuses have active and rest times in their little world within you. They can spend 10 hours kicking and flipping around in us then take a day off to rest up. It is very normal...I had the same worry with my pregnancy. As long as its still moving I wouldn't worry...NO movement after a few days and I would worry. But for now enjoy the breaks in squirming and rest up!!!!Congratulations too!!!!

hi i am 27 weeks and my little boy moves a little on day and a lot the next day but he is ok if you are scared something is wrong and you dc to do a stress test on you

the baby is probably active while you are sleeping. All of my babies became active when I laid down (I have 3 health children). Try laying down for a little while each day to see if that increases the baby's activity level. Try not to worry if the Doctor says that everything is okay then it is okay.

yeah, when your'e pregnant, you feel that way...it's NORMAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I drove my family crazy worrying about the health of my baby every time she didn't move for awhile, she was usually so active. I was told time and time again that babies have daily rhythms like we do, rest periods and active periods. The other thing to remember is as your baby grows he/she is running out of room to move so movements may seem less. Everyone ended up being right, she was born healthy and wonderful but nothing could ease my mind especially since I was considered a high risk pregnancy. I actually rented a doppler from storkradio.com to ease my mind. If I started getting nervous I just had to turn that on and hear her heartbeat. I wish you all the luck in the world. I know it's a stressful time and so much to worry about but keep in mind of how many babies are born healthy and well every day all around the world. The chances are that yours will be one of those.

well if your very active or if somethings loud you may keep your baby awake or the baby's just tired?who knows.by the way the point is the baby's alright.right??

This is perfectly normal, just like us adults. A foetus is not always active, nor is it always sleeping. Your pregnancy is progressing most normally. Just enjoy the feeling of nurturing a life inside you and look forward to the bundle of joy!

This is very normal,even foetuses need to sleep and take a break sometimes!

babies sleep too.

hi i am 40 weeks plus 2 days. i know exactly how you feel. but it is perfectlly normal. as the baby gets bigger there will be a lot more movement and a lot more discomfort so enjoy the breaks for now.

that is totally normal. just becasue your unborn doesn't kick you persistantly every day doesn't mean somethings wrong. Is this your first pregnauncy? Everyone feels worryed for their first baby. Stop being a worry wart. I'm sure you'll be a great mother! CONGRADULATIONS!!!

The fetus does sleep in the womb, so that could be it. The fetus can also go through "moods", and "feel" your moods...as well as hear what's going on outside the womb...and reacts to that. If your ultrasound is good, and you're eating right, then I wouldn't worry about it.

Some one told me to eat foods high in protein when the baby is not moving alot. Such as peanut butter or red meat and it seemed to work well for me. I think it is normal for the baby to be more active on some days and not others just like we are more active some days and less on others.
