My daughter is crazy. This is what happens at midnight the last few days. Needless to say, I don’t get to sleep for a while.

    thoroughly enjoyed seeing that video…awww…
    old wives tale: they say babies who r usually active at night, sleep well at night when they come out…true with both my kids :) so well..it may not be that crazy after all :)

    Wow…Ive been there,and now I see it..but it still makes my jaw drop.
    Isnt it amazing???
    Mine were always super active at night too..maybe because its when *we* actually relax and they are free to do summer saults without our movement getting in the way? lol

    Happy 39 weeks Nat!!

    OMG! That is soooo awesome! Ive been following your blog for a few years now, and I am just so happy for you! I can sooo remember my kids doing that in my belly as well! Except, when people watched my video of it, all they could talk about was the very painful stretch marks! :) Oh well! Sooo glad you have made it to this point! I know you will be glad to see your little baby girl! Good luck and hope labor starts soon! :)

    Good LORD!! that was quite a show! Mine never did that. I’m guessing that will be the liveliest, most active baby ever. Get ready, mama..it’s going to be hard to keep up with her!

  15. Michael says:

    Awww, I miss that.

  16. Ellie says:

    That is so cool! I really miss that. I’m like you, I love being pregnant.

  17. Dayna says:

    WOW! You got a great video. She is so happy in there just moving like crazy. Do some of those hurt? I remember at the end it hurting when she moved so big like that! I never could catch it on video at the right time, perfect timing for you! I miss my belly!

    Amazing video! Thanks for sharing it with all of us. It’s going to be wonderful to finally meet this little one who is already so dearly loved. Good luck with the birth. Can’t wait to finally see her beautiful face “in person”!

  19. Sara says:

    Look at her go! lol She’s sure practicing how to keep mommy up at night!

    Happy 39 weeks Natalie! I can’t wait to meet her! :)

    I used to think that was the coolest thing when my sister was pregnant. That and the hiccups. My youngest niece used to get them ALL the time when she was still in the tummy. She rolled around and stretched so much that we nick named her Alien Baby quite early on in my sister’s pregnancy. (In fact, I think I was one of the first ones to feel kicks.)

    I’m very excited for you! Can’t wait to hear the big news!

    Heehee, very cool. I’m almost 38 weeks and can look down and see the same sight several times a day, but I never thought to videotape it! Occasionally DH alerts me by going “Acckkk!!! Your belly!!!”

    Nat, we are IN FOR IT! :)

  22. FallinWoman says:

    Goodness! I think that girl needs more room! Better come on out, Kate! <3

  24. Helen says:

    Amazing!!!!! Wait till she has the whole world to move around in!!! Get a good pair of running shoes to keep up. I wish you all the best for a great labor, easy delivery and a lifetime of happiness enjoying your baby girl. Can’t wait to see pictures of precious little Kate.
