Fetal heart rate monitoring: What to do if the fetal heart rate is normal and the fetal movement is

The first organ of fetal development in the mother's womb is the heart, and the baby has not yet moved in the first trimester, and the doctor determines the baby's health status based on the observation of the baby's fetal heartbeat. However, after the third trimester, it is necessary to observe the fetal heartbeat and fetal movement to determine whether the baby is healthy. So what is the reason for the normal fetal heart rate and low fetal movement?

If fetal heart rate monitoring is normal, there is no need to worry about the number of fetal movements, fast and slow, strength and weakness, etc., which is a reflection of the health of the fetus. The number and amplitude of fetal movements vary at different times of pregnancy, which may be caused by hot weather or an increase in the temperature of the pregnant woman. It may also be due to the fact that the fetus is growing and has limited space to move and fetal movements are reduced.

But as long as the fetal heart rate is normal and there is no abnormality, it means that the baby's growth is safe, and pregnant mothers do not need to worry too much.

How to tell if the fetal movement is normal.

After 4 months of pregnancy, the mother can clearly feel the activity of the fetus from the 5th month, and the fetus reaches out, kicks, and impacts the uterine wall in the uterus, and if the fetal movement is less than 20 times in 12 hours, it is abnormal. Less than 10 times indicates that the fetus is in danger and there is a lack of oxygen in the womb. If the fetus moves more than the normal number of times over a period of time, the fetal movements are frequent, or the fetal movements are restless without intermittent movements, it is also a sign of intrauterine hypoxia.

A marked decrease in the number of fetal movements until they stop is a sign that the fetus is severely asphyxiated in utero.

The above is a collation of the relevant information on the question of what is the cause of normal fetal heart rate and less fetal movement, I hope it can help you. Fetal heartbeat and fetal movement can intuitively reflect the baby's health status, so pregnant mothers should observe the baby's fetal movements in the morning, noon and evening, as long as the baby's fetal movements are within a safe range, pregnant mothers do not have to worry too much.

After the fetal movement appears, it can always transmit some signals to the pregnant mother, because the fetal movement is a signal that the fetus is active in the uterus, so the pregnant mother should grasp and be familiar with the fetal movement as soon as it appears.

During pregnancy, the uterus is originally a low-oxygen environment, the fetus will breathe spontaneously after the body, and oxygen also needs to be provided by the mother, and the range of the third trimester is constantly shrinking, so the probability of fetal hypoxia will also be greatly improved, and pregnant mothers should pay attention to it.

At the same time, fetal movement decreases, it is also a phenomenon that the fetus does not like to move, which may also be a reaction to fetal hypoxia. Pregnant mothers need to complete the recent fetal heart rate monitoring and prenatal examination as soon as possible to detect whether the fetus has intrauterine distress. Intrauterine distress is also a precarious thing, which may cause premature birth or asphyxia, and pregnant mothers should not be negligent.

The appearance of fetal movement signals is actually a thing that deserves our attention, and pregnant mothers also need to be familiar with the time of each fetal movement.

After the fetus grows in the third trimester, the natural shock in the uterus will become stronger and stronger. The fetal motive force and frequency at this stage may be relatively large, which is also a matter that we need to pay attention to, and pregnant mothers should not be negligent.

In the third trimester of pregnancy, the fetus changes very much, the probability of hypoxia is relatively high, pregnant mothers also need to breathe more fresh air outside, so as to improve the fetus in the pregnancy environment in the womb, pregnant mothers should not be negligent.

In the third trimester of pregnancy, the demand for oxygen is still very high, pregnant mothers should breathe more air outdoors, which is not only conducive to relieving physical and mental tension, but also has great benefits for the fetus, which can make the fetus feel happy and can also play a certain prenatal education effect.

Fetal heart rate monitoring fetal movement is lessFor this question, relevant people said that the number of fetal movements, the speed and slowness, the strength and weakness of the fetus indicate the safety of the fetus. The normal fetal heart rate is 120 160 beats, and the rhythm is neat, the strength is moderate, like the "ticking" sound of a clock.

Fetal heart rate monitoring, less fetal movements, how many fetal movements, fast or slow, strong or weak indicate the safety of the fetus. Decreased fetal movement suggests possible intrauterine hypoxia of the fetus, and it is recommended to undergo fetal heart rate monitoring, and if the fetal heart rate response is poor, the pregnancy must be terminated by cesarean section in time.

Onset: The fetal heart is formed at the end of 8 weeks of pregnancy, and ultrasound can detect the beating of the fetal heart. At the end of the 20th week of pregnancy, the fetal heart rate can be clearly heard from the pregnant woman's abdomen with a fetal heart stethoscope, and the frequency and strength of the fetal heart rate can be judged, so as to understand the growth and development of the fetus in the uterus.

Normal fetal heart rate: The normal fetal heart rate is 120 160 beats, the rhythm is neat, the strength is moderate, like the "ticking" sound of a clock. The fetal heart rate can increase by 10 to 20 beats when the fetus moves.

If it is consistently higher than 160 minutes or less than 110 minutes, it is an anomaly.

Abnormal fetal heartbeat: At first, the fetal heart rate compensates for the rapid beating, and the fetal heart rate rises markedly to more than 160 beats, but the heart sounds will weaken. If the cause of the disease is not resolved in time, the fetal heartbeat will slow down, below 110 points, the heart sound will be weaker, or even disappear - the fetus dies.

What is fetal heartbeat Fetal heartbeat is the sound of the fetus's heart beating in the womb, the timbre is crisp, the rhythm is neat, and the fetal health can be understood by listening to the fetal heartbeat. Generally, at about 7 weeks of pregnancy, the fetal heartbeat can be seen with a B-ultrasound device; Around 12 weeks of pregnancy, a Doppler fetal heart rate can detect a fetal heartbeat. Before the child is born, the fetal heart sound is the only bridge between the baby and the outside world, and is an important indicator of fetal health.

A normal fetal heartbeat of 120 to 160 beats per minute should sound regular and gap-free. If the fetal heart rate is slightly increased when the fetus is moving. If the fetal heartbeat is more than 160 beats per minute, or less than 120 beats per minute, or the heartbeat is irregular, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, the beating stops and stops, and there is a gap in the middle.

After pregnancy, pregnant mothers will pay special attention to the health of their babies. Fetal monitoring heart rate detects the baby's condition in utero, and once there is a problem, it can be timed**. A fetal heart rate that is too high or too low will have some effects to a greater or lesser extent, so what is the cause of a low heart rate in fetal monitoring?

Let's find out.

If you don't rest well or are malnourished after pregnancy, it will lead to a lack of oxygen in the fetus. A normal fetal heart rate should be 120 160 beats per minute. If the fetal heart rate is slow, the fetus may have intrauterine hypoxia.

It is recommended to go to the hospital for fetal heart rate monitoring, and if the fetus is hypoxic in utero, oxygen is required**. so as not to lead to the occurrence of intrauterine asphyxia of the fetus. After fetal movement, the fetal heart rate increases by 15 to 25 beats.

If the fetal heart rate is between 160 and 180 beats, consider the fetal heart rate to be too fast.

Fetal heart rate monitoring is mainly to detect whether the fetus is healthy in the mother's womb, and the more serious the fetal heart rate abnormality, the more severe the fetal hypoxia. However, not all fetal heart rate abnormalities are caused by hypoxia, and the condition of the pregnant mother itself will also affect the fetal heart rate changes, such as the pregnant mother has a fever, and the fetal heart rate usually exceeds 160 beats. Pregnant mothers have hyperthyroidism, and the fetal heartbeat will be faster; Pregnant mothers taking certain medications can slow down the fetal heartbeat; False-positive results can also occur when the baby in the womb is asleep.

In addition, in the case of umbilical cord entanglement, the fetal heart rate will continue to increase due to the movement of the fetus, which may be aggravated and the fetal heart rate will continue to increase. If there is a recurrence of abnormal fetal monitoring, the doctor will combine the results of the ultrasound examination. If the fetus is repeatedly checked for intrauterine hypoxia, a cesarean section is required to reduce fetal asphyxia.

From the 32nd to 34th week of pregnancy, fetal heart rate monitoring should be done for each prenatal examination, at least 20 minutes at a time, but there is indeed a phenomenon in the outpatient fetal heart care unit: most pregnant women have to do 40 minutes or even 1 hour before it ends. It is possible that the fetus is sleeping, the fetus is sleeping without fetal movement, without acceleration, and the waves of the fetal heart rate curve are reduced.

The baby's sleep cycle is 20-40 minutes, and generally does not exceed 40 minutes. Therefore, fetal heart rate monitoring will be extended to 40-60 minutes, mainly to rule out sleep factors. The fetus is not full and lacks adequate energy.

In the state of fasting and hypoglycemia, pregnant mothers will have a fetal heart rate curve similar to the fetal sleep cycle. Others, such as pregnant women taking certain drugs that suppress nerves, and pregnant women lying flat can cause supine hypotension.

Eat some chocolate, sugar and other sweets, let the fetus move, don't go on an empty stomach, remember to go when you're full; If the fetal heartbeat is not the first time, you can put your feet away and push your belly every 4-5 minutes, and the baby will soon be moving. Try to find a regular large obstetrics and gynecology hospital for prenatal examination, with advanced equipment and more accurate.
