Report your concerns

Feeling your baby move during pregnancy is a sign that they are well.

Alert.jpgRemember, it is not true that babies move less towards the end of pregnancy. You should continue to feel your baby move right up to the time you go into labour. Your baby should move during labour too.

Do not wait until the next day to seek advice if you are worried about your baby’s movements.
