ABSTRACT

History A 34-year-old woman at 32 weeks and 4 days’ gestation in her first pregnancy complains of reduced fetal movements. She normally feels the baby move more than 10 times each day but yesterday there were only two movements and today there have been none. She has no significant medical, obstetric or gynaecological history. In this pregnancy she booked at 10 weeks’ gestation and all her booking blood tests were normal except that she was discovered not to be immune to rubella and postnatal vaccination was planned. Her 11-14-week scan, nuchal translucency test and anomaly scan were all normal.
