Wierd question I know.....lol. Abby was super duper active in my womb, she used to kick and move ALL the time. And she is still like that, she is non-stop from the time she wakes up til she goes to bed, she has so much energy. micah wasn't as active as Abby, but he was still pretty active. And he's a pretty active boy now. But this baby really doesn't move a whole lot. It's as if this baby is really laid back. I feel baby kicking a few times a day, and I'm starting to feel body parts sticking out, like a foot or knee poking me but I wouldn't say this baby is active. There are a few times a day where baby will kick quite a bit but baby doesn't move as much as my other two did. I don't feel worried about it, i actually hope it means that baby is laid back and I'll get a nice calm baby and child...lol.

So how were your kids in the womb and how are they now?

Abby wasn't extremely active, but I'd say she is now. She does know how to sit still and listen and she knows how to keep herself busy at times, but overall I think she was more active inside because she was squished :-D Jo wasn't really active, but since he's been walking he is! he'll just walk around the living room laughing and picking things up putting them down. It's quite funny. But even he will sit and play by himself.
This baby is not active. or maybe she is and I haven't really been able to tell just how active she is. her movement is so different to me so we'll see!
Praying you get a healthy laid back baby!:-D

YES! Helen was literally a "fireball" in the womb, and when she was born, whooowee! Holy kick-boxing-fetus' batman! She was my "bang-my-forehead-on-the-floor-cuz-I-didn't-get-my-way"-infant/toddler/child. She was a real trial. Once we got on top of her disobedience, then she was/is just our fiesty/spunky child. VERY active, very robust, very "in your face".... "Hi! I'm Helen, I'm shy, and I love you!" Yeah... she's easy to love~ :D

The twins were both pretty "normal" or on the quiet side in the womb, like Emma, and they are like that still... those three are my normal kiddos... not especially spunky. Very average.

Eliya was SUPER calm and quiet in womb, would nudge and poke, but never "beat me up" like Helen did in utero. She's like that now. She has little fits of rage when she doesn't get her way... but her "fit" is making a screeching noise as I'm putting her down, meaning she doesn't want to be out of my arms. That's pretty much it. ::snort::

So, yeah, I've noticed that I've been able to peg my kids personalities in the womb. Hub was just remarking on this the other day... how I've been BANG-ON with all of them. We're *that* connected, that early. ::grin::

Josh was very "quiet" in the womb and as a baby he hardly ever cried and was very "go with the flow" now he is VERY much an active boy. Sarah was very active in the womb and in the 3 weeks of knowing her on the outside, she is a "fussy" baby. although I only have josh to compare her to, and according to my mil she is a normal baby. She is a hard burper which causes her lots of gas, and fussing. She also refuses to be out of my arms...which makes parenting my active almost 2 year old a challenge.

nah, not really

well, eldest wasn't overly busy in womb and is still my mildest mannered one
yo was my 'alien baby', you know, the one that moved in utero with HUGE movements and you'd see elbows and knees poking out...he's still limber like that, that's about all I can say

I don't remember nugget being highly active in the womb, no more so than the others. But he's my fireball now (as you are all well aware LOL)

I guess I don't remember any of my kids being REALLY active, or hugely more so than a sibling. They each had their spurts of higher activity amongst mellow normal movement.

But Nugget is my hottest fireball. Doodles is close behind him. And Boo and Warrior are doing their best to keep up as well. My oh my how busy things are around here lately. LOL

My oldest NEVER stopped....and he is my milder one

My second was fairly quiet in the womb and NEVER STOPS now!

Just the opposite for me!

breezyKC2 that is exactly what my two where like. my eldest never stopped and she's the more quiet and my youngest hardly ever moved, so we thought was going to be quiet , but she never stops.
