Reduced fetal movement at week 21, 5 day
Hi
My fetal movements were really good two days ago and since yesterday it has reduced.
Usually baby used to be active in the evening with Lotta flutters and gentle kicks
Since yesterday feeling flutters after 20min of food and only for sometime (not for long as earlier)
Only gentle kicks observed a few times
Is it normal? Should I get myself checked?

You should check for fetal movements for 1 hour after having food by lying in left lateral position. If atleast 3-4 movement are felt then it is okay
Minimum of 10 movements should be there in a span of 12 hours
If you are perceiveing less fetal movements then you should go for a USG for biosphysical profile
