Very Active LO :-)
I laugh to myself seeing how my 'bump/belly' shakes at times! I sware she has a punching bag or is doing cartwheels! Just now I counted 14 kicks/punches in a row! and this goes on ALL day long. It's what I feel when I go to sleep and when I wake up. Even during 'down time' she's still moving...unless I KNOW she's sleeping for a max 6 hrs in a day.
#1 - I'm freaking out! If she continues this 'activeness' once she's out I'm going to go crazy....
#2 - About 8 women IRL (in the last week) have asked if she moves a lot - I say yes..all day - they then say "Oh she's going to come early".
Is there any truth to this?
Anyways as much movement as it is I love feeling her

Re: Very Active LO :-)
Probably about as much truth to it as the thousands of other old wives' tales. If so, my little guy will be a hairy troll (from the heartburn) and will have massive birthmarks all over his body from all the times I scratched an itch after denying myself a craving
I think it's best just to plan on an estimated birth month. I think that was Rachel who initally gave that advice and I think it's the smartest thing I've heard!
I don't know if there is any truth to it, but in my case P came at 35 weeks and she was very very active, and she came out with a full head of hair and I had quite a bit of heartburn a month before she was born.
Another wives tale I heard is kind of like Amy's where if you keep touching your belly like ALL the time they will have a HUGE birth mark. P doesn't have any birth marks and I touched my belly all the time.
Julian was active like that and has never stopped ever since he was born( still only sleeps 9-10 hrs per day maximum). Not much truth to that b/c Julian was born 2 weeks and I was even 3 cm dilated for about 4 weeks prior to that.
Jefferson and Kate weren't very active in-utero. I couldn't do those kick counts, because they were never what they were supposed to be. They both sleep 12 hours a night, plus J takes a two hour nap most days. He is super busy while he's awake, but he will sit down at any time to read a book or color.
Jefferson came a week early and I had a planned c/s 10 days before my EDD with Kate.
DD was verrrry calm in utero. Rarely moved - I even went for 2 NSTs at the hospital because of low kick counts.
She came flying into this world 3 days early
Screw RRSP's!!!!
my baby didn't really start moving around until 25 weeks so don't fret!
Definitely - my financial plan is much more secure and well thought out, lol.
