    I've been getting the exact same thing and was wondering what it was too. Glad to hear its normal and others are experiencing the same.

    Hoping everyone is well.

    I didn't have this till my #3 pg. Thought the baby was having fits. My now 2 year old dd is very healthy, smart and no signs of fits. Have not noticed it as yet with this pg but there is still time.
    All pg are different.

    I do know that when bubs is born, they don't have much control over their arms and legs and their erratic movements can kind of freak them out- which is one reason they like swaddling. So I would guess its the same in the womb, their limbs kind of "flail" sometimes. Like others said, I guess its just all about their under-developed nervous system.

    But it does feel VERY wierd!!
