Hiya, I wasn't sure where to post this but guessed htis would as good place as any! I just wanted to ask all you new Mummies about how much your baby kicked towards to end of your pregnancy, did they slow down, speed up or stay the same. My MIL told me the other day that when babes ready to come out they rest beforehand, is this true? Thanks Muchly. Nicki.x
Hi Nicki Usually towards the end the movements slow down a bit because the baby has pretty much run out room to thrash their arms and legs about as it gets a little cramped in there!!
I never had that problem even in labour Matthew was a fidget to the point he went back to back and I ended up in agony towards the end! He's still a fidget now!
Maheen kept on moving and kicking just as much till I got in too much pain with the contractions to realise if she was!!! My waters broke at 12:55 and right through the day till at least 21:30, I can assure you she was moving just as normal! I think it just depends on babies and how much mummies can feel them! Mel xx
