I have been at work since 7 this morning pretty much sitting down and this little man has been full go since then. He is like this most of the time!! And the kicks and little punches are huge. Some of the reps that come in crack up cause my tummy is bouncing all around the place through my tops!!The rate he is going I just cant see him staying in there til 40 weeks...thinking he will be wanting out!!
Does anyone have one of these? Im getting paranoid he is going to hyper or something!!!  -------------

Andrew was an all day kicker, so it's normal. The midwives at the hospital loved my monitering thing as he moved all the time. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

Mine, thankfully, does have rest periods...lately she has become more of a pusher and squirmer than a kicker...I'm not sure which is worse!  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

yes I dont have a very jumpy one - jbut occasionally I get a huge push, I always iagine she looks like a cat does when i gets up from a long nap and stretches out - except she is doing it in my belly Lol!
I think active is better than not active, sometimes mine goes quiet for a few day and I get really paranoid... ------------- Mrs Frantic Baby Maddisyn born 28 Sept 2006 http://lilypie.com">

my bubs has been rather quiet lately but has had alot of wriggling days. now i'm like you mrs frantic, alot of squirms and pushing rather than kicks. hope bubs isn't getting too big already!! i don't know why i'm so paranoid about bubs size, jack was only 5lbs 12oz so i'm guessing they will be about the same?? within a pound or so.. ------------- http://www.alternatickers.com">

I have heard that boys are far more active than girls. My friend told me it was true as her girl hardly moved much, just normal she said. But her boy my god he didn't stop. Andrew was on the go 24/7 it seemed like. Even gave me one last boot as he was coming out. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

Zaara was like that too...very active baby and I thought "oh my God...how am I going to handle a active baby??" Tho Zaara is active she is not as bad as I imagined she would be....dont worry! He is just trying to get ready to face the world...and there is not much room left for him.... ------------- http://lilypie.com">

| Mine is really active too. Lots of kicks and punches. I also worry I am going to end up with a hyperactive baby! I am glad to know I am not the only one who worries about how big the baby is going to be! |

i'm paranoid about having an over-active baby. jack was so cruisy and still is, he's always happy to entertain himself. i worry that i was so spoilt the first time around with an easy baby that this one will make up for him!  ------------- http://www.alternatickers.com">

Jacks Mum...that is exactly my thoughts!!
I could not have asked for a better content baby than Paige. She was a gem!!! But then my ex husband was pretty laid back and cruisy. My partner Mark is busy busy busy and got quite a bit of energy..but can just as easily fall asleep at 8 on the couch every night!!! WHO KNOWS!!! -------------
