Normal fetal movement...answers please!!?

Question

Honestly, is there such thing as too much activity? Please don't make fun, I am 23, and 27 weeks pregnant with my first baby...I love feeling him move and kick, but wow!

Answer 1

I have never heard of there being too much activity. I would say congrats on a very active, healthy baby. If it is something you are worried about I would call your doc just to make sure. They will be the ones that can really put your mind at ease.

Answer 2

Answer 3

no there's no such thing as that. thats real good to hear that your baby is moving actively. congrats

Answer 4

LOL- I'm 28 weeks pregnant and I'm exactly the same. My doctor told me I should be feeling ten movements a day and I just laughed. I regularly feel ten movements in three minutes. Pretty much the entire day, in fact. She's jiggling around in there right now. If I go ten minutes without feeling her move, it's a strange day. I love it too, but occasionally it's not that amusing (she was pushing up so hard a couple of weeks ago that I ended up barfing up my lunch- thanks, kid!)

Friends assure me that she'll slow right down at about 32 weeks when she gets good and squished in there- babies are busiest from 27 to 32 weeks because they've got the muscles to move and the space to do it in, according to my doctor.

Good luck- I'm hoping my hyperactive baby will be a little less hyperactive once she's in the outside world :P
