Life starts from a cell, from a small fertilized egg, and eventually develops into a complete individual. The process of fetal development in the female uterus is something that no one can feel better than the mother. When the fetus reaches a certain level of development, fetal movement is the most common life response and the first way parents can feel new life. So, how many weeks of pregnancy will fetal movement occur?
How many weeks pregnant is fetal movement
After four months of pregnancy, starting from the fifth month, the mother can clearly feel the fetal movement. The fetus reaches out, kicks, and impacts the uterine wall inside the uterus, which is called fetal movement.
Expectant mothers need to calculate fetal movements every day after 28 weeks of pregnancy Expectant mothers can choose to calculate fetal movements 1-2 hours after breakfast or dinner Continuous fetal movements are counted as one, while another fetal movement after a pause is counted as two Due to the noticeable fetal movement after meals, it is more suitable for fetal movement calculation Usually, it should be easy to accumulate up to 10 fetal movements within 2 hours If the fetal movements are less than 10 times within 2 hours, there should be suspicion of a problem, and the fetal movements should continue to be counted If the fetal movement is still less than 10 times within 2 hours after continuous observation for 6 hours, it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination.
How many normal fetal movements per day
The number, speed, and strength of fetal movements can often predict the safety of the fetus in the uterus. Normal fetal movement indicates good placental function, sufficient oxygen supply to the fetus, healthy fetal development, and a happy life in the uterus. If the fetal movement is less than 20 times within 12 hours, or less than 3 times within 1 hour, it often indicates the possibility of fetal hypoxia, and pregnant mothers should not take it lightly. The fetal movement is generally 3-5 times per hour, and the fetal movement is about 30-40 times within 12 hours. Under normal circumstances, there are certain changes in the strength and frequency of fetal movements throughout the day. The frequency is lower in the morning, increases after 6 pm, and is most active between 8 and 11 pm. This means that the fetus has its own sleep pattern, which is called the fetal biological clock.
I believe every parent is extremely happy when they see their child's first fetal movement, but they cannot eat hot tofu when they are anxious. The fetus will only show fetal movement after enough weeks of development in the mother's body. Therefore, parents during pregnancy should wait patiently. When the time comes, the fetus in the womb will definitely give you a huge surprise.
