Hyperactivity in an overdue baby - what does this mean?

[dusty]

I have this belief in my head that as babies are getting ready for birth they quieten down in preparation and as there is no room left they don't have much choice.

Phoenix is 5 days over EDD now and last night I couldn't sleep for the crazy antics going on from head to foot. I was literally pummelled for hours on and off, feet, knees, hands and head were going wild.

Whats going on? Anyone else experience this? No signs of Phoenix making any moves to get out at this stage.

ETA. Phoenix has always been an active, physical baby, but last night was almost on another level!
