OK this is going to sound like a really silly question but can bubs move too much?? Honestly he has not been still for longer than a 20min stretch all day. Its driving me nuts and actually really tiring. It looks like an alien has taken over my tummy. ------------- http://alterna-tickers.com">

Other than being uncomfortable for you and making it pretty difficult to sleep there's nothing to worry about.

LOL, I understand the Alien thing (do not watch aliens vs predator 2) my girl used to do 10 movements in 20 minutes (and thats if I only counted the big ones). Its perfectly normal. The only time my girl would lay still was when I went for a long walk - the rocking motion of the waddle put her to sleep! His movements are due to slow down a bit as he'll be running out of room soon. Maybe turning?? ------------- http://www.babysfirstsite.com">

I have been wondering the same thing as you Sarahm as I am 29 weeks and also have a very active baby. Baby constantly moves all day and a bit at night. I can always count ten strong movements before I get out of bed in the morning and it just carries on from there. Could almost guarantee anyone could feel a kick if they hung around for a short while!
Interesting though that I have never seen my tummy move and I ofen look as it feels so full on. |

Thanks guys, thought it was probably very normal but was getting to the point I was almost it tears as some of the movements really hurt, DP could see my tummy moving from the other end of the couch 
This morning I feel like Ive done 1000 situp, my tummy feels all stretched, but he is a lot less active, he has the hiccups at the mo but thats all I've felt since I woke up an hour ago. ------------- http://alterna-tickers.com">

Haha I used to always think of the Alien movies towards the end because of the way the girls would roll their feet across my belly....creepy -------------

SarahM, it's very normal- my DP used to be woken by our girl kicking him in the back (thru my tummy!) if I was cuddled against him at night. ------------- http://www.babysfirstsite.com">
