    Yeah my DD was like that and this one is too. I always wondered when on earth she slept because she seemed to be kicking ALL THE TIME! Enjoy it, you will miss it soon!

    ok good to know, thanks ladies

    She's really going to town and I do wonder why she isn't sleepy, she seems to be awake more than Asleep.

    my DS was the same

    i think there's something to do with how active you are - by that i mean, when you're active/doing things it soothes them & they rest but when you stop they wake & kick up a fuss! which is a habit that seems to follow them out of the womb no idea if that is true though

    sloane i was told that but it has more to do with the fact that when you are active you just don't feel bub as much

    babyluv my ds was the same, although he liked to kick when i was at work which was always fun for the guys to see... did not stop moving and my stomach would contort into funny shapes enjoy it because you will miss it

    I've been feeling my bubs move heaps!!
    I'm 27 weeks and been feeling him since about 17 weeks.
    Unfortunatly, I got told the reason I feel him so much is because I have low amniotic fluid.
    But, its so comforting to feel the kicks and movements...
    I find it hilarious when DP and I are in bed and we can see a little foot or arm push out, even funnier when its a head pushing!!
    I love feeling all the movement, but I can't wait til bubs in out!!

    Charlotte was the same...as is this one lol
    She never sat still at all, even when everyone told me she would slow before birth, think for her that meant she was still an hour a day!

    Movement is good!
