    My Ds was hyperactive from the first time I felt him move ( at 15w 4d) and hasn't stopped since!

    With DS I really didn't feel many movements, I felt a lot more with DD.

    DS is/was more hyperactive, DD is a handful at times but she's more quiet/settled/cuddly/clingy.

    my son barely moved mostly due to laziness lol came out was perfectly quiet for 4 days then WOKE UP and hasnt stopped moving since
    my daughter was 'normal' activity and barely stops now but she tends to be more laid back and cuddly

    DS moved all the time. He's not really hyper, but more frenetic. His mind never stops (and neither does his mouth). He never wanted to sleep when he was little and he never really stays still for long (but he's not running round going nuts either)
    DD had very obvious awake and sleep patterns. It's a bit hard to tell what she's going to be like just yet, but she's relatively more interested in sleeping and seems to require less attention & interaction from us.

    Lol I hope not cos my DS was nowhere as near as active as this bub and I have been suggested to get him tested by a few people for ADD/ADHD

    Ds was a crazy baby in utero...I often couldn't sleep because of the churning! He had a super long cord because of it...apparently research links cord length with activity. He slowed right down at the end though and actually worried me a few times. He is pretty cruisy so far (but it's early days!! I will let you know in a few months!)

    That's interesting Arcadia, I didn't know that, I'll be sure to check out this ones cord when it is born but I do know I can see it in the u/s a lot better than I could with DS
