Increased Fetal Movement?

k8edgerton

I have fetal movement every day and get my kick counts in...

However, the movement today is so much more. I would call them angry kicks that lasted longer than usual. After awhile, it was painful.

I "googled" it and one of the things that a site said is increased fetal movement towards the end could mean that baby's cord is wrapped around the neck. Now I am completely freaking out! 

Should I be worried? TIA

I have not heard of this.  Sometimes Google can be your worst enemy.  I don't want to say don't be worried but I seriously have not heard this before so chances are others haven't as well.  Someone should help me out with this but I think the only time a cord around the neck can be bad is when you are actually delivering?

No kick counting done here, but I continue to have lots of movements at 37.5 weeks. Today I had some funny jerky movements that were new. Right now it feels like baby is doing the caterpillar inside me with all the rolling that is has been going on post-dinner.
