Do active babies in the womb become active newborns?

I had my 40 week ultrasound yesterday (on my due date) and the doctor mentioned how active my baby is. Curious as to your experiences regarding if your baby was active in the womb, are they likely to be active when they’re newborn? 😊

My baby was active in the womb but isn't active outside of it

Yes I can confirm our almost 10 month old baby girl was so active in the womb and now she’s just as much if not even more active 😂

Yes I’ve had an active baby and a non active one and it does reflect them perfectly. My son is non stop and my daughter is very chilled

Oh yes my daughter did not stop kicking me all day long and doing flips and she is 1 (March 5th) and she is a go go go baby! Hehe
My son was not active in my womb and he has his bursts of energy. He was also vaccine injured so he is not to his full potential and then add Lyme disease poor baby. He is only 7 almost 8 this June.

My first born wasn't super active in the womb, was a super chilled newborn, really easy going. Then he realised he was an actual human (around 6 months) and was non stop! Was walking early, loved climbing, always on the go!

my baby was constantly moving in the womb and hasn’t stopped. she had the usual sleepy newborn phase but after that she’s been go go go. she loves to rough house, never wants to sit down and and even in her sleep she’s all over her crib lol

In my experience yes 😂

I had an active womb baby but placid AF when she was born. My second was the opposite 🥲

Avatar

Yes. My baby was awake and even had hiccups at the same time when she was born as in the womb😂
But it all changed after the first month or so x

Reduced Movements

Has anyone else gone in for monitoring for reduced movements and as soon as you arrive at triage the baby starts moving and the CTG is normal? It makes me feel like I am over reacting.

Labour

Think im a bit confused really, i went into traige as was having contractions eveey 3-5mins. Since being here im now having them every 2-3mins which was confirmed with the machine and i think the toco was 90-100 and they feel painful and my lower back is in loads of pain but apparently im only just over 2cm dilated maybe, she has said i can stay here for a bit longer to see if things progress as had a previous quick birth as well but i dont understand why the pains are coming this quick if im only 2cm dilated and feel a bit deflated from it also.

I had a sweep this morning also.

Pregnancy after c section

What time scale did everyone get pregnant again after a c section?
I know the doc said they recommend eating at least a year to 18 months but it took 4 years to get pregnant the first time after being told we could not conceive naturally so not wanting to stop it happening knowing it could take a very long time again but also worried.

Hospital bag (UK)

What did everyone pack for their section? I'm staying in for 3 days due to mental health, not really sure what I'll need to bring, feeling very nervous. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
