Baby suddenly kicking a lot

I'm 37 weeks and while I know baby's very active, I woke up from a nap and he was kicking a lot and very hard. I went to the bathroom which usually calms him down but he's still going wild. Is this something I should be worried about??

    I've heard that if your baby starts moving significantly more or less than normal, to call your doctor. They might want to get you on a monitor to make sure everything's ok.  If you're really concerned, go into labor and delivery and ask to be put on a monitor. Have you been doing kick counts? If so, give that data to the doctor (if it usually takes 30 minutes to get 10 movements and now is taking 2 minutes, for example). That helps them take you seriously, if you can back it up with data instead of a vague feeling that it's more than normal.
