Many pregnant mothers can clearly feel the baby moving in their belly when they are four or five months pregnant. At this point, expectant mothers are more concerned about what is the normal fetal movement state of the baby in the belly. So, are there only a few times a day when fetal movement is normal?
Pregnant women should be particularly familiar with fetal movement, which can occur around 50 days in the early stages of pregnancy. However, at this time, pregnant women themselves cannot feel it and can observe it through ultrasound. Fetal movement is also an important indicator of whether the fetus is healthy in the pregnant mother's womb.
At four to five months of pregnancy, the mother's fetal movements are relatively infrequent, and the intervals between fetal movements are also relatively long. Because the strength of the fetus at this time is relatively limited, only when the fetus exerts special force can the pregnant mother feel it. So at this time, it is normal for expectant mothers to feel fetal movement only a few times a day.
At 28 weeks of pregnancy, the fetus gradually develops regular sleep habits, and the fetal movement is relatively stable at this time. The number of fetal movements is generally within 12 hours, ranging from 30 to 40 times. The sleep of the fetus in the pregnant mother's womb is also regular, so the frequency of fetal movements at night also varies to some extent.
As delivery approaches, fetal movement decreases and the baby gradually grows, with a smaller range of motion in the uterus. It is recommended that pregnant mothers go to regular hospitals regularly for prenatal check ups.
