You need to be carefull of things like bathrooms. Current code requires 20 amp circuits that only serve the bathroom.
Just because a circuit has 13 receptacles doesn't mean it's overloaded. A receptacle doesn't use any power. It's the stuff you plug into them that uses power. You could overload a single duplex receptacle by plugging in two heaters. You could also plug in 20 clocks and probably not be close to overloading a circuit.
Also bedrooms require AFCI protection. So if you remove stuff from the bedroom circuit to another circuit that other circuit better be AFCI.
Are you having issues with breakers tripping?
