Just wondering about other moms to be experiences-my lil guy seems to be the most active after I eat and when I am trying to go to bed at night lol. What about you all? And does anyone know if there is a specific reason as to why they are the most active when they are? (ex. right after I eat)? Thanks to all in advance.

Your baby should be more active shortly after you eat or drink something even just cold water - your body releases hormones when you eat and drink and those hormones cross over the placenta to the baby - their brain much like yours knows food = energy and that it is on the way.
Also when you lay down, or rest quietly on your couch or bed anytime of the day (usually more so on your side) - your body stops moving and you lay on your side, your baby moves into a new position from the one they were in while you were standing. When you are up moving around during the day, the rocking motion of your body and them floating in water lulls them to sleep - much as it would if you carried them around in a carrier during the day.
Hope that answers your question and good luck

My lil boy is most active at 12 midnight when it's bed time or right before i eat... he's pretty calm after i put something in my system
i don't think there's a specific reason... it could be multiple things... what r u eating? if you have something that has caffeine in it, the baby can be a bit more active because of the caffeine... how far a long are u? i would say that it just depends... different foods can have different effects on baby... maybe ur lil one likes when u eat :)

lol right now. he can be active any time. but yes does let me sleep whenever i am fast asleep. But trying to get to sleep is very tough. I hve to toss and turn so much and he/she does the same. also whn i sit for long hours...the baby wants me to change position and turn and make myself comfy. Also whn i drink water or eat something, he is most active coz he just got anough calories from food, or maybe the temperature inside rises a bit. Whatever, its an amazing phenomenon and I cant seem to get enough of it. Love alll the kicks and karate acts.

I listen to music everyday before sleep(few particular track) and i found that baby too relaxex listening that..hope once baby is born, these songs will help to calm my baby.

yup i am 22 wks and i have been feeling his/her( we chose not to find out the gender. lol ) movements when i am full and around 10pm the most when i am feeling sleepy.
also he kinda moves around when i am hungry, i wonder if the baby gets hungry too.. the babies get their food even if we dont eat every meal right ? i donno. gotta find some info on it. :)
also its been only two weeks or so since i felt him move for the first time. but even so the kicks are getting stronger by the day. the other day i donno what it was doing but it felt like it had completely turned it body and it was a big movement for the tiny one. :)
sorry i cant help with your doubt this is my first one... :) but congratulations on the baby ! :)

My liittle boy turns into a maniac after I eat or when I'm not up walking around. It's the glucose in the food that gives them a instant sugar rush and gets them wired. And they're just like newborns, they liked to be rocked to sleep. And when mommy is laying down or at rest, she's not doing her job and rocking him to sleep. Lol
