Pregnant women who are pregnant for the first time do not know what symptoms they will have after pregnancy. They find it very new in the early stages of pregnancy and want to know what symptoms are present during pregnancy. Fetal movement is a symptom that may occur during pregnancy. At three and a half months of pregnancy, some women may not have fetal movement. Can fetal movement be felt at three and a half months of pregnancy?
Normally, there will be no fetal movement during the third month of pregnancy because the fetus is relatively small and there is enough space in the uterus. Especially for primiparous women, the abdominal wall is relatively tight and it usually takes around 20 weeks of pregnancy to feel fetal movement. The abdominal wall of multiparous women is relatively loose, and they may feel fetal movement at 16 weeks of pregnancy.
At three and a half months, pregnant women still cannot detect fetal movement. The limbs of the fetus begin to move during the fourth month of pregnancy, and pregnant women may feel fetal movement at this time, but some pregnant women do not know what it feels like. The fetus may have movements such as punching, kicking, and turning around.
Fetal movement is more pronounced between 28 and 32 weeks of pregnancy. After 32 weeks, the fetus occupies most of the space in the uterus and its movement is restricted, making it easier for the fetus to deliver a forceful blow. If you feel fetal movement and find any abnormalities, it may indicate that the fetus is in danger. Therefore, pregnant women can analyze the situation of fetal movement and seek medical attention as soon as possible to prevent the fetus from being in danger.
