Well I hope your Dr. is wrong because I am 25w and my baby kicks at
night all the time, he is very active during the day also. I guess i
better look forward to not getting any sleep whatsoever.

Matter fact Dr. said when they get that active they are getting ready to be born, I still don't believe that even though I gave birth 4 days after him telling me this. Good luck and just maybe you will have a beautiful baby soon!
