do unborn babies sleep alot when they are inside the womb?

Like how many hours . And when do you know they're up and start kicking you . How many weeks are you ladies and when did you start feeling your baby .  During the day you feel ur baby the most?  God bless you ladies . I really hope someone with experience can answer my questions.

I'm a FTM now 36 weeks. I first felt my little mab around 18 weeks as butterfly flutters & then like popcorn popping. By 23 weeks my hubby could feel him move too. I work full time, so he sleeps a lot during the day because my movements actually lull him to sleep (usually between 10am & 6pm or so) but as soon as I sit down after a work day he's a pinball machine until about 11pm. He's wide awake promptly at 6:30 am every day too!

After roughly 28 weeks you care provider will ask you to kick count... I'm in the UK do things may be different to else where but they normally say that if you don't feel any movement in an hour then kick count and call someone... when you are up and about you don't tend to feel all little ones movements... laying down with a cold drink usually does the trick... babies normally sleep for around 40 mins a time in the womb xx

I'm 21 weeks and felt movements at fourteen weeks. At 17 weeks saw movements on outside, and she has certain times of day she is typically active, like around five pm, 11 pm, and sometimes she wakes me up around 2 am. First time mom.

I'm 28 weeks and started really feeling movement around 20 weeks. My daughter is really active, more so at night when I'm relaxed but I feel her all tgrought the day. I can tell when she's sleeping and even little twitches while she snoozes, like a newborn would do.

1 day to the 26th week. Feel the first clicks around 21st week. I feel it a lot now. Not regular. Mostly when i m driving or lying on bed. My dr said it's normal to the baby movement is irregular at this stage and as long as you feel it once a day, you r totally fine.
