Answers:
Hi,to first answer your concern,babies are supposedly most active between 24-28 weeks,when they have ample space for their acrobatics.I'm currently 28 weeks pregnant and have the same concerns as you do but this is what I've learnt about my daughter so far.She has regular timings when she's most active and that's when I start counting her kicks and any sort of movement I feel.
Pick the time of day when your baby's most active,lie down and try to count her kicks.If she kicks or moves even gently atleast 10 times in one hour,everything oughta be considered normal.
In any case,if you still are worried,you MUST contact your doctor.
Yes. Baby is pretty cramped in there at this time. If it worries you, go in and get a stress test done. It takes about a half hour, and if the baby's heart rate is fine, and you are not having any contractions, you're good to go.
Give it a try.
