A member asked:
What is considered frantic fetal movement? 29w5d baby makes some sudden, repetitive, hard movements that shake me over. like jabs. distress? seizures?

Get checked: Many innocent things can cause these sensations but when it comes to pregnancy i would err on the side of caution. It is wise to see your doctor if you think the baby is acting abnormally.
