Before the baby is born, every fetal movement is a family dialogue between the mother to be and the baby, and it is also an important indicator for the mothers to know whether the baby is healthy or not. With the baby growing day by day, expectant mothers will feel that the baby's activities become more and more vigorous and regular. If the baby has abnormal fetal movement, it may be an abnormal signal sent by the baby's body, so the mother needs to be vigilant and go to the hospital in time. How to distinguish abnormal fetal movement? Now let's talk about it.

How to distinguish abnormal fetal movement?

Every pregnant expectant mother's physical condition is different, so the feeling of fetal movement will be different. For example, pregnant women with thin abdominal wall will feel fetal movement more easily than pregnant women with thick abdominal wall. In addition, fetal movement is also related to the sensitivity of the pregnant mother's feelings. Everyone's sensitivity is different, and the time to feel fetal movement is also different. Generally, after four months of pregnancy, expectant mothers may feel the obvious fetal movement of the baby. When the fetus is in the womb, it reaches out and kicks its legs and impacts the uterine wall. This is fetal movement. Normal fetal movement, not less than three to five times per hour, 12 hours within the number of fetal movements should be more than 30 to 40 times.

After the baby has fetal movement, mothers should regularly monitor fetal movement at home, and careful mothers will find the baby's movement rules after a period of time. Pregnant women in the 28th week of pregnancy can find free time every day, take left lying position, record the time of ten fetal movements. If 10 fetal movements are less than 120 minutes, it means that the number of fetal movements is not abnormal. But if expectant mothers don't feel fetal movement or it takes more than two hours for 10 fetal movements, then they should see a doctor for further examination. Every day, expectant mothers can use one hour in the morning, noon and evening to measure fetal movement. If the average time is less than three times per hour, it means that there may be an exception. In order to facilitate expectant mothers to better monitor fetal movement, we can choose a simple fetal heart rate meter to assist in measuring fetal movement.

The amount of activity of each fetus is different, some babies are active, some babies like to be quiet. Different pregnant mothers may feel that the time and frequency of fetal movement will be different, but no matter what, the activity of the fetus in the womb has its own rules. Expectant mothers must carefully observe the baby's fetal movement, once found abnormal fetal movement, should immediately go to the hospital to ensure the safety of mother and baby.
