We had our 38-week weekly BPP ultrasound last week (they're doing them now instead of NSTs because they're quicker and more accurate), and the tech commented how I was her 3rd BPP of the day and our baby was by far the most active of all of them. He was doing this weird thing with his hands nonstop where it looked like he was playing the flute!! (And I can feel that, too, so... thanks, baby). He pounds around in my stomach like he's trying to find an exit anywhere he can. He has definitely NOT slowed down as my pregnancy has progressed!

DH asked her if, because he's still so active, that means that labor is a ways off, and she said not necessarily.

My "out-of-curiosity" question for the day is, did your baby slow down in the days/hours before labor? Looking back, when did you notice they were quieter? Or were they rocking and rolling right up until the end?

He's really low, up against my cervix, and I'm 90% effaced, so obviously all that movement is helping things along at least! But since he's so low, it HURTS when he's constantly on the go!
