Baby up all night already

My baby is causing me Sleepless nights already and he/she is not even here yet.. Im 27+5 days and haven't slept since about 24/25 weeks.. My only concern is does this have any indication as to how baby will be active when they are finally here? I've seen a lot of mixed feelings an thoughts about it, wondered if anyone has actually gone through it.. I love the kicks and movements at the moment, can cope with waking every hour of the night but I'm hoping for a little more than that once baby here lol not much though I know

    In many ways the baby reacts to you and your environment. Maybe you have been a bit worried about something lately? Either way, you shouldn't worry about it. It doesn't help :) Just accept it, and take care of yourself, that's the best way to help the baby too. Good luck!

    at 39 weeks she was a wild baby last night, kicking and rolling around at 2:30am ish.  I have heard this is the hours they'll keep when they emerge, but I don't put too much stock into that. Because, I have had my fair share of pineapples and sex this past month, and she's still firmly encased in her womb without a view.

    I'm in the same boat. I'm getting up every night at three in the morning as baby girl does not stop moving. I read somewhere that this is a good indicator of what baby's sleep schedule will be like once they are born. I'm fine this... I think. However that may not always be the case though. I'm just glad I can feel her moving because all that movement will slow down considerably in the coming weeks so I'm enjoying it.

    My first was always active at night, your not moving as much and rocking them so this is normal for babies in utero to be more active at night. With that being said my daughter had a normal sleep schedule once she made her appearance. Every 2-4 hours to feed and slowly those times stretched as she got older. Youre reading too much into those old wives tales.

    First pregnancy baby kept me up ALL night I could never sleep. This second pregnancy she moves Alllll day. I'm on a messed up sleep schedule, I go to bed around 12midnight/1am but I sleep in as well. During my 12 awake hours, she is constantly making moves.

    The little guy has decided to start keeping Mama up all night. I am lucky if I get 4 hours of straight sleep a night. I am exhausted!!

    Oh I can relate to you ladies It's very hard to sleep when you have an active baby. I've been up for the past 3 weeks. Just getting only 6hrs of sleep.

    I seriously doubt there's a correlation.
