33+3 more active baby

Just wondering but is anyone else's babies getting more active the further along you go?

He's been really active since around 20weeks but you hear from people that they slow down gradually towards the end but my little one just seems to never stop! I'm not sure whether it's just because I've not much water and "all baby" so I'm just feeling the movements more the bigger he gets.

Would love to hear other peoples experiences :)

The slowing down thing is a myth! The movements change (rolling, wriggling etc instead of kicks) but they shouldn't reduce in frequency.

Not experienced any slowing as of yet. If anything I'm shocked each day as to how he doesn't get tired of all the moving about.

33+3 isn't really near the end! When I hear about people saying baby slows down towards the end I think of about 38 or 39 weeks!

I know it's a myth about the movement slowing down too, I dread to think what limbs and shapes might be on show for my by 38 weeks, it already feels like he's trying to break free even now!

My boy was active still when I was in labour jabbing me in the ribs and all sorts up to giving birth. Got pretty uncomfortable by the end mind u but so glad they didn't slow down was a panicky mum to be after losing one before Smile x

33 weeks here also and a seemingly fairly quiet baby since about week 30. He has his more active moments/ days, but is generally pretty chilled.
