in Baby Health During Pregnancy by
I am currently 34 weeks pregnant and have noticed an increase in my baby's movements, which last around 2-3 hours at a time. Is this excessive movement normal at this stage of pregnancy? I am concerned about what this could mean for my baby's health and development. Are there specific patterns of movement I should be looking for, and should I be alarmed by this increase in activity?

It's quite common for pregnant women to notice changes in their baby's movements as they approach the later stages of pregnancy, including around 34 weeks. Excessive or increased movements can sometimes occur and are often not a cause for concern. However, understanding what is normal for your baby is important. Each baby has its unique pattern of activity. If you notice a significant change in this pattern or are concerned about the movements, it's always a good idea to consult with your healthcare provider. They can offer reassurance and, if necessary, perform checks to ensure everything is progressing normally with your pregnancy. Remember, it's always better to ask and be reassured than to worry in silence.
