Bubs Moving TOO much ?

[Delicate_Dove]

This might seem like a weird question but can a baby be TOO active?

Last night she didnt stop wiggling, kicking and squirming for about 6 hours, by the end of it I was really aching and felt like my uterus was going to fall to the floor.

She has been quite active today as well but not nearly as much as Lastnight, I think I fell to sleep before she even stopped.

It's the turning and squirming thats concerning me the most.

You can see my whole stomach just move from one side to another.

Should I be concerned? what exactly is she doing in there for so long?

and I don't know if its connected but the past 2 days I have been starving as well, is she using all my energy to re-decorate my uterus ????

I hear you on bub moving too much!!! I always thought that the later you get in pregnancy the less bub will move because they are running out of room. But NOPE, not like that!! My lil girl does not stop moving, feels like she is going to break out of my skin some days!!

And I dont think you have anything to be concerned about...

I had the same thing yesterday. I think my little man was rearranging the furniture in there all day. Like you i could see waves ripple across my belly as he was rolling around.

I dont think there is a concern if they are too active. Well i havent heard of it anyway.

I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one! All the books say that bubs movements will slow right down now, but no! This bub is more active than ever! I've just been assuming it's letting me know it's doing well.

i noticed that with my girl too!! this past week she's been hyper active. non-stop moving from dawn till night, good thing is she lets me sleep throughout the night n starts kicking by 6am!! so she half wakes me up everyday! my personal alarm clock!!

it is completely normal, DS never stopped moving from 14weeks pg and still hasn't stopped moving! My youngest sister apparently was the same now she is in high school ans sports are her life she is quite a talented tracknfeild athlete. Just means you have an energetic little bundle in there!

well, that's good then, widdly!! both me n DH are not really into sporst but if bub is - YAY!!

thanks, she has been a little quieter today due to my lack of sleep lastnight.

I woke for the toilet at 3am and couldnt get back to sleep worrying about anything and everything by 4:30 I figured I would just get up as I was starting to get hungry. I got up had a yoghurt and some fruit and started heading back to be at 7am but then got really hungry really fast and began vomiting.. Hubby made me some breakfast and then I went to bed saying "I can't sleep still" and woke at lunchtime to the phone ringing.

So now we are both out of schedule , but I am soooooo tired still I am just waiting to go to bed now.

Some say active in the womb, active out. I'm not sure if it always holds true or not but both my boys were VERY active in utero and are VERY active now. It certainly keeps me on my toes. All the best gals, I think you might be kept busy!

[mistyeiz]

hahaha....well, active is one thing, i hope i can catch up!! lol :P
