Experiencing Several Bruises On My Belly During My Pregnancy Period

I am pregnant and due any day now and today I woke up with several bruises all over my belly. I know that movement and kicking can cause some bruising but these are really dark and all over my stomach. I jut find it concerning when there are so many and they are all over.

hi. since you are full term now, are these really bruises or stretch marks which have darkened. Kicking movement of baby does not cause any bruising in any way.You should see your dr. and show these lesions to confirm what they actually are. Do you have any itching on them. Also get your coagulation profile done.
Thanks.
