Hello from BabyCenter!

Don't panic if you feel the baby moving less frequently now. She's running out of room in your uterus and can't do the backflips and somersaults you're both used to. As long as you can feel her squirming from time to time, she's fine.

See an illustration of your baby and learn more fascinating fetal development facts.

Quick Tip: Hit the Sofa for Some Shut-Eye
"When I was about eight months along, I started waking up with unbelievable heartburn and indigestion. I tried modifying my diet and propping myself up in bed, but nothing worked until I started sleeping on the sofa. Since my back also ached, the firmer surface was a lot more comfortable than my bed, and the cushions and arms propped me up better." -- Marybeth
