I had it happen during my pregnancy. I honestly thought the baby was having seizures inside me. I even had them do an ultrasound to look at her brain. Conclusion was that it is normal and its muscle spasms because their nervous systems aren't fully developed yet.

I see this question a lot and the consensus is that it is normal. My son did this too and I think it is them just testing out their reflexes and almost "jumping" in there. If you are concerned then speak with your doctor for sure.

My now 3 year old use to do that when I was pregnant with her.  I asked my doctor about it several times when pregnant with her and he said some just do that  reflex and I shouldn't worry.  I know everything turned out perfectly fine with her.  Shes always been heathly and happy.  I'd try not to worry, but I would still mention it to your doctor.  I don't have an exact answer, but I hope this can at least ease some anxiety for you.
