If baby is moving lots is it distressed ?

[Purplehippo]

Beanie is really going for it tonight, I've not been well is it that its distressed if it moving around to much ?

I'm not sure. Call doctor/triage and ask for advice?

Generally they move a lot less when in distress which is why reduced movements need to be carefully monitored. x

I"m not sure but I know how you feel!! baby boy was moving so much last night that I seriously thought something was wrong! It was crazy!! I've only ever heard that reduced movements means baby is in distress... I'm not sure about increased movements.

If you call Dr/triage and get advice would you pass it on? I've experienced this too and worried...

i asked my mw this a couple of weeks ago - ever since i got to full term the baby moves so much more at night when I'm trying to sleep. She said it was nothing to worry about. Still, it's always best to check if you're worried x
