at how many weeks is the baby too big....

to move around so much?

I'm almost 32 weeks and this little one is all over the place, he moves all day long. I'm just curious about when it's normal for him to stop moving so much bc of his size

Re: at how many weeks is the baby too big....

I am 36w2d and he still moves constantly. Its not the big kicks he used to do, more like turning and moving his body. He will kick things off my stomach though, like the fetal monitor when it was on, my purse strap and seat belts lol

Re: at how many weeks is the baby too big....

There's no real kicks anymore just lots and lots of movement!

Re: at how many weeks is the baby too big....

I was told teh baby would move less in the later stages of pregnancy. It never happened with me.

DS moved the same amount until the day he was born...oh and should I mention that on his EDD (his birthday) he was 9lbs 14oz? And my OB had said to me just 2 days prior that he still had plenty of room....

Sorry my point is really that everyone is different, every baby and every body is different. SO you may not feel that tapering off of movement.

Thanks girls!!

Re: at how many weeks is the baby too big....

if anything my LO has started moving more which I did not think was possible. . squirm, kick, turn, the wave. . my doctor said to do the fetal kick count to make sure I had 6-10 in an hour and after two minutes I'm usually up to 15!


edited to add. . I will be 37 weeks on Friday
