To all pregnant people and those supporting them - please speak to a midwife/doctor about any concerns with your baby’s movements. It’s likely nothing, and baby will be checked and you will be reassured. But rarely, it is something really important, and they can help you

@BBCOne #correction Babies do not “run out of room”. The feeling of movements may change over time but actual movement does not I have cared for too many bereaved families for whom a reduction in movement was the only warning sign that could have allowed us to help their baby.

PLEASE SHARE @BBC!! Having just told 1.6 million Doctors viewers “At 38 weeks the baby doesn’t move as much because there’s not enough room” you need to correct this!!! BABYS DO NOT SLOW DOWN..The show has already gone out so please at least share this information now.

Seriously now. I am a clinician scientist working in reproductive biology & maternity care and this is 100% nonsense. There is no such thing as "woke science" there is science, that should challenge us and make us think. It may even increase our understanding. Please do better.

NEW: Conservatives are safeguarding scientific research from the denial of biology and the steady creep of political correctness. @michelledonelan announces plans to depoliticise science at #CPC23
