Baby Movement?

Question

Did your baby move when you were having contrations. I am 39 weeks. And I will have one and he will move right after and sometimes when I am having one..lol like he is pushing out. I thought that when you have contractions and labor is starting that your baby should start to calm down. Instead mine is moving like a monkey. I have an appointment tomorrow I will talk to my doc. about it then but I was just wondering till then.

Answer 1

With my first, she moved so much that everytime I was checked the nurse would comment on what a wiggle worm she was. When a new nurse would come in, they would say, "oh, you're the one with the wiggle worm." I could swear she was doing a full on gymnastics routine in there. It was...interesting! And well, she's 8 now and hasn't stopped wiggling. Must have been all the mexican jumping beans I ate while pg. :)

I don't remember with my second, but I had an epidural with her. However, she's not quite the wiggle worm that her big sister is.

Good luck and congratulations!!

Answer 2

My baby did the same thing. I had daily non-stress tests my last week of pregnancy, and the monitors would always register plenty of contractions, and plenty of fetal movement. I guess some kids just don't like being squeezed! ;-)

Good luck and congrats!

Answer 3

At the beginning of labor babies will move around more sometimes. They don't know why they are getting squeezed likr that and try to move away from it. Good luck and God Bless to you and your little one

Answer 4

Mouse, you were not in labour for 3 days...lol. You liar. The doctors would have given you a C-section before you could ever get to that point.

Answer 5

You should feel some movements, the baby moving down. But if you feel alot of movement kicking etc. they are brakton hicks
