What should I do if my baby hasn t moved yet?

As the due date approaches, many pregnant women, including their families, become anxious unconsciously. Many relatives and friends will also be very concerned, and from time to time they will come to ask if they have given birth or not? It makes it easier for pregnant women and their families to panic when they are already anxious.

Under normal circumstances, the fetus is considered full-term at 37 weeks, so if the baby is born at this time, it is not considered premature. And some fetal babies will not come out until 42 weeks, half a month earlier than the expected date of delivery or half a month later can be regarded as within the normal range, under normal circumstances, expectant mothers and families do not need to worry.

However, as an expectant mother, the anxiety in your heart does exist, and in order to give yourself peace of mind, you and your family can continue to do the following:

1.According to the hospital's teaching, count the fetal movements regularly, and seek medical attention in time if there is any abnormality.

2.Pay attention to your own physical condition, such as whether there are regular contractions, whether there is redness. Once there is an abnormality, you should be vigilant and be ready to go to the hospital at any time to wait for delivery.

3.In the later stage, we will have a prenatal check-up once a week, and if you feel abnormal or unsure, you should keep in touch with the doctor at all times to shorten the interval between check-ups. Let the doctor monitor the intrauterine fetal movement in time, and grasp the data such as B-ultrasound and amniotic fluid volume.

If there are no abnormalities, the pregnancy can continue under close supervision.

4.Pregnant women should move around and walk more during the labor period, and at the same time be accompanied by someone to prevent it. At the same time, it is also necessary to insist on exercising the pelvic floor muscles to increase labor force and facilitate the smooth delivery of the fetus during delivery.

5.After testing and examination of pregnant women over 42 weeks, doctors can decide whether to use oxytocin based on the fetus and the maturity of the placenta. Subsequently, the doctor will take relevant measures according to the overall condition of the pregnant woman and the state of the fetus.

I think you have to go to the hospital and listen to the doctor's opinion. Because if the baby is born a long time after the due date, the meconium excreted by the baby, as well as the growth of fluff and hair, are particularly easy to contaminate the amniotic fluid, resulting in turbidity of the amniotic fluid. It has extremely adverse effects on the body of the fetus.

And cloudy amniotic fluid can have terrible consequences for the mother to give birth, such as amniotic fluid embolism. It is especially dangerous if the mother suffers from this disease during childbirth. Even if the rescue is timely, the chances of surviving are very small.

Some mothers just scream when they get sick, and then they don't make a sound. In order to reduce unnecessary risks, it is better to seek medical attention in a timely manner and follow the doctor's advice.

Moreover, the people's living standards have been greatly improved compared with the past, especially during pregnancy and childbirth, and the nutritional supplements of pregnant women are particularly in place. The husbands of some mothers are always afraid that their wives will eat less, which is not good for the fetus, so they change their tricks to let pregnant women eat all kinds of supplements. This results in a particularly rapid growth of the fetus, and beyond the due date, it is particularly easy to cause macrosomia.

If your baby is over 7 pounds at the time of delivery, it is likely that the doctor will recommend a caesarean section. Although the caesarean section is particularly fast, the postoperative recovery is relatively slow, especially for some fat mothers, and the wound is more difficult to heal. And after the cesarean section, it will take another three years to have a second child, if you have a second child or to avoid the pain of a cesarean section, it is better to go to the hospital as soon as possible, get a few injections to promote contractions, and give birth to the baby as soon as possible.

Therefore, I think that when the due date comes, we should rush to the hospital to prepare for the birth, and we should not delay.

Hello expectant mothers, don't worry too much! The expected date of delivery is originally "pre-date", and the expected date of delivery is calculated according to the last menstrual period, and if the normal menstrual period is not punctual, the expected date of delivery will not be accurate. Can I see if there is a difference between the size of the first ultrasound and the size of the last menstrual period?

When my family's two treasures were 40+, there was no sign of coming out, and the doctor checked the file and found that the B ultrasound was a week smaller than the size of the last menstrual period, saying that it was not yet a day, so there was no need to worry.

However, everyone's situation is different, these days pay close attention to fetal heart rate monitoring, take more walks, or do squatting movements, which will help you give birth, I wish you all the best!

The due date is a guess and is not necessarily accurate. It is rare to be born on the day of delivery! It's not uncommon to submit or postpone by a week.

In the third trimester, pay attention to rest, reduce the amount of activity, and pay attention to nutrition! Pay attention to fetal heart rate monitoring, as long as the baby is in the belly, you can insist on smooth delivery!

Go to the hospital for examination, after 36 weeks, isn't it a prenatal examination once a week, tomorrow 40 weeks, there is no movement until now, go to the hospital tomorrow for examination, is the hospital to give birth, go home and wait, induce labor, or cesarean section, you have to listen to the doctor's arrangement according to the results of the examination, do not judge and decide by experience or other people's experience, the most reliable is the examination.

Don't be too nervous and pay attention to the movement of the baby. If the fetal movement is less than 3 times per hour or less than 20 times in 12 hours, or the fetal movement is weakened, you need to go to the hospital immediately for further examination, and the doctor will decide the timing of delivery according to the situation.

Don't worry, I'm still waiting for two weeks, if there is no response, it is recommended to go to the hospital to find a doctor to negotiate a plan.

Two days after the due date, the baby did not move. The doctor told me to get an induced injection in 4 days.

After 40+2 opened two fingers, there was no movement, the doctor estimated that the child weighed about 8 pounds, and asked me to choose one of the two by caesarean section.

I still have 4 days until my due date, but I haven't responded yet, so I'm a little worried.

What should I do if my due date is still up?

When the due date arrives, it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination, continue to observe and wait for normal delivery according to the doctor's instructions, or induce labor.

The lack of movement may be related to the following factors:

1.Longer normal pregnancy: The expected date of delivery is usually the date of the woman's 40th week of pregnancy, and the normal pregnancy may be a few days longer than the 40th week (less than 1 week), in which case you can wait for normal delivery.

2.The expected date of delivery is not accurate: the expected date of delivery is the approximate time of delivery after pregnancy is estimated by examination and calculation, due to the irregular menstrual cycle of women, the timing of conception is not easy to calculate, and the normal development rate of the fetus, etc., the expected date of delivery may be earlier than the actual normal date of delivery, and there may be a difference of about a week.

If this is the case, you can continue to observe and wait for delivery.

3.Fetal development abnormalities: Fetal malformations, older maternal age, maternal obesity and other reasons may lead to the pregnant woman reaching the labor time but unable to give birth normally, at this time the pregnancy may need to be terminated.

If there is no movement when the due date arrives, it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination, and continue to observe or deal with it according to the doctor's requirements to avoid affecting the health of the pregnant woman and the fetus.

In October, pregnant women are most looking forward to giving birth once, but if the baby has not moved beyond the due date, then pregnant women should pay attention to the signs of labor and do prenatal check-ups on time. <>

1. What should I do if the due date is exceeded?

1. Pay attention to the signs of labor. When the pregnant woman enters term, the baby has not moved, or should always pay attention to their body changes, to see if there is a bright red water and increased secretions, etc., especially after the due date, the pregnant woman must have a person on call, if the pregnant woman's body has signs of labor, should go to the hospital in time to give birth.

2. Prenatal check-up on time. Many pregnant women will think that the pregnancy is full-term and will not have other accidents, in fact, the more to the due date or the due date has passed the due date, the more attention should be paid to it, because the longer the due date is exceeded, it is not good for the fetus and the pregnant woman, so a weekly prenatal check-up is essential, and sometimes even multiple prenatal check-ups. <>

2. What are the reasons why there are no signs of labor after the due date?

1. The expected date of delivery is incorrect. Some pregnant women who have passed the due date are caused by the wrong estimation of the due date at that time, because some women with irregular menstrual cycles or unclear memories of the last menstrual period, as well as women who are ovulatory induced or pregnant with other assisted reproductive technologies, cannot accurately calculate their due date, so women who still have no signs of labor after the due date should bring the examination data of the first trimester and ask the doctor to recalculate the due date.

2. Hormone deficiency in pregnant women. In fact, the lack of hormones in the pregnant woman's body will also lead to the inability to give birth naturally, if the due date has passed, there is no birth on the fetus and pregnant women have a certain impact, because after the due date, the placenta will gradually age, and the amount of amniotic fluid will gradually decrease, then the fetus is likely to have hypoxia, and with the extension of time, the fetus gradually becomes larger, and the fetal bone will slowly harden, then it is likely to cause dystocia and so on during delivery. <>

You should go to the hospital in time to find a doctor for corresponding examinations, if the amniotic fluid appears to be less turbid, then you must have a caesarean section, if there is no abnormality, you can continue to wait, so that the child can give birth naturally.

You can go to the hospital for a check-up to see what is going on, and at the same time, you should do a moderate amount of exercise, and you also need to check your child's heartbeat.

At this time, it is necessary to pay attention to the guidance of the student in time, and if the problem is serious, the birth injection should be given immediately.
