35 weeks, a sudden burst of activity?

For the past 2 weeks or so my baby's movement has died down a little, I know that that's normal as long as there's some. And there was she was still active, kicking my phone away from my belly, not letting me lie on my right side... But for the past hour or so, my little princess is jumping around freely as she did before lol. Not that I'm concerned or anything. But she's right on my pubic bone right now rolling around, its very odd. Feeling on and off pressure on my bum o.o what the hell is she doing haha! No pain, but I haven't tried standing yet

She has quite possibly changed position.
I thought reduced movements always needed to be checked out though? Have you spoken to your midwife?

Sounds like her head may have dropped/ engaged hence the pressure. If her movements slow down again, though, please call your midwife to get checked out.

The below is from www.counthekicks.org.uk Re-reading your post its given me a bit of a chill that someone might search for it and think reduced movements are nothing to worry about (most times all will be well of course, but it needs to be checked out).

^There is no set pattern of what is normal for an unborn baby as every baby is different so it is important to get to know their individual pattern. Your baby’s movements will gradually increase up to 32 weeks when they will stay the same until birth.

It is not true that babies slow down as you reach the end of pregnancy.

During both day and night, your baby has sleep periods that mostly last between 20 and 40 minutes, but not longer than 90 minutes. Your baby will usually not move during these sleep periods.

CALL YOUR MIDWIFE OR MATERNITY UNIT IF YOU ARE EVER WORRIED OR IF YOU NOTICE A CHANGE IN YOUR BABY’S NORMAL MOVEMENTS^

It seems as if I've sparked a little bit of worry :(

She's been moving just as Much, just not as forceful and freely as she did a few weeks ago . she was in the same position for quite a while so perhaps she's just jumped closer to the surface or something .I'm very in tune with baby :) she would always kick or move every few minutes with a half an hour break here and there, she's been making lumps and bumps all over my stomach all long .
I'm sorry if I caused concern ! She's fine I know she is :) I think she was comfy under my right side now she's jumped up . I'm really excited about the dropping part so I got maybe over excited and turned to fourms haha.I just can't wait to be able to breathe again
