A member asked:

Today is my pregnancy due date and as of yesterday the baby has been moving less frequently and with less vigor. i have not bled or felt contractions?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Less fetal mvmt ?: If your due date has been calculated correctly, the fetus will move less actively , but if a sudden decrease is noted, call your OB for a non-stress test immediately. There is no good reason to delay delivery once having reached 38-39 weeks , so ask if you might be induced at this point.
