I didn't really think of DD1 being active in my tummy because she was my first so I had nothing to compare to.

But DD2 COMPLETELY freaks me out because she is so quiet. Some days I barely feel her. I've already taken myself off to the ob once to get checked out because even after an icy cold drink she wasn't moving very much.

DD1 was always on the go. My ob told me "you've got a very active baby," but I just thought he probably said that to everyone. One night I was lying in bed spooning DP and she kicked so hard he felt it in his back. When she was a day old, the midwife said "look at that, she's trying to follow voices already. You've got a livewire here."

Anyhow, she HAS turned out to be a very active little girl so I'm wondering if the fact that DD2 seems to be so placid is an indicator that she'll be a bit calmer? We're already joking that DD2's first sentence will be "calm down DD1 and stop being so noisy."
