Normally i feel my little one a lot more. but not today ive barely felt the baby. I have a fetal doppler so i listened to the heartbeat a few hours ago. but how come I cant feel the baby as much ?

this is completely normal and nothing to worry about. the babies movements will vary from day to day throughout your entire pregnancy. You heard the heartbeat which especially shows there is nothing to worry about. Doctors don’t even want u to start counting or paying close attention to movements until the end. Relax and lie down and i’ll bet the movements will start to pick up, or probably as soon as you lie down to sleep tonight
it’s probably a lazy day. sometimes the baby isn’t as active, sometimes you are overly active and it rocks the baby to sleep, sometimes the baby is in a position and you can’t even feel him/her kick. drink a glass of milk, eat a slice of fruit, and then lay down for a few minutes. this usually works for me.
A baby’s movement varies day to day. Some days you’ll feel the munchkin creating a ruckus and on other days they’ll just lay low. It’s all normal if you feel "some" movements everyday.
If you don’t feel any for 24 hours call your doctor.
For me, my daughter would move so much and kick so hard that I couldn’t concentrate on meetings and on some days she would just chill.
