Active Baby?

I'm about 28 weeks now in to the third trimester and it's like the little guy inside me has kicked up his dance party in my womb!

I woke up throughout the night to turn and every time he was awake and kicking me like crazy. He's head down, so he's kicking higher but not much above my belly button. He's also getting a lot stronger and every kick feels like the big kicks of the past.

Anyone else got a baby who thinks he can dance?

My little guy kicks all day and all night.  Sometimes it feels like he's swimming.  I have no idea what he's up to, but I love it!  I wish I could watch him all day with an ultrasound!

Thank God! i thought mine was a wee too active but it seems we're all in for the ride. right now i can feel him doing the back flip thing, wouldn't even stay for the U/S scan, DH says he's gonna be a striker for a soccer team or maybe a kick boxer, really crazy, so i say enjoy it while it last, coz soon we'll be holding our little ones in our arms.

My son is CRAZY busy with the movement.  He's head down too....so the discomfort is there for sure when he really gets going.  DH can rub my belly and calm him down usually...but not always.

Fionn is definately a night time mover and he actually hurts me when he really gets going.

My little girl is on a roll lately.  She is also head down.  And going crazy.  It seems like after I go to the bathroom she moves quite a bit.  And then when I eat or drink.  You can see my whole tummy move back and forth.  She is going to be a hand full I have a feeling.  LOL.  Good luck to ya.
