In this case, you should first stay calm, don't be too anxious, maintain a good mood, and go to the hospital for corresponding examinations; You can give your child proper prenatal education, do some physical exercise, keep the surrounding environment quiet, eat a balanced diet, and pay attention to proper rest.

At this time, you must go to the hospital in time to do the corresponding examination, or you can choose to use the fetal heart rate monitor at home to monitor, gently stroke the belly with your hands, and interact with the child. Expectant mothers must exercise properly in the third trimester, maintain adequate rest, and pay attention to their physical condition in time.

Don't panic, go to the hospital for an examination, and do fetal heart rate monitoring, so that you can intuitively understand the child's condition. You must develop a good habit at all times, go to bed early and get up early to go out for a walk on time, don't be too tired, and have a good attitude.

Generally speaking, pregnant mothers can feel the fetal movement in the second trimester, in fact, fetal movement is a phenomenon caused by the fetus moving in the mother's body and hitting the uterine wall. Basically, most pregnant mothers are very happy about the fetal movement, because they can really feel the presence of the baby. So, what to do if the fetus suddenly stops?

1. Sleep. Newborn babies sleep almost every day, which is caused by their lack of physical strength. The unborn fetus, on the other hand, has weaker physical strength, so it is not surprising that it sleeps for a long time. When the fetus is not moving, it is mostly sleeping.

2. Absorb nutrients. I have to admit that when the fetus is in the womb, it is a snack, they will constantly swallow amniotic fluid to absorb nutrients, once the fetus does not move, then he is concentrating on "eating".

3. Swimming. When the fetus swims in the womb, unless he stretches his arms and kicks his legs too happily and makes very big movements, the mother will not feel the fetal movement.

Fetal movement characteristics at 38 weeks of pregnancy:

The second trimester is bounded by 38 weeks, and the fetal movement is relatively weak before 38 weeks of pregnancy, and the position is in the lower abdomen**; After 38 weeks of pregnancy, the fetal movement is more pronounced, close to the stomach, and expands to both sides. After entering the second trimester, pregnant women can have sex appropriately. However, there are certain restrictions on sexual life in the second trimester according to the situation of different people, and it is not possible in the second trimester, because some people have a lower placenta position and the placenta is lower.

Or if you have a tendency to miscarry, you are not suitable for sexual life. At the time of her appointment, her doctor may advise her to avoid sex and strenuous exercise.

1. At about 16 weeks of pregnancy, the pregnant mother will feel the initial fetal movement, and it feels like a small butterfly growing in her belly.

2. At about 20 weeks of pregnancy, the fetal movement that the pregnant mother can perceive is jumping and jumping, which is the fetus swimming freely.

3. Around 28 weeks of pregnancy, the amplitude of fetal movement will decrease, but the fetal movement that pregnant mothers can perceive is more intense, because the fetus grows up and its strength increases.

4. Around 32 weeks of pregnancy, the frequency of fetal movements has increased to a peak, at this time he is a naughty baby, various ways and various movements are constantly changing, sometimes due to excessive force, it will make the mother feel pain.

5. Around 36 weeks of pregnancy, the uterus is already very narrow, and the fetus has enlarged a lot.

6. Around 38 weeks of pregnancy, there will be very little fetal movement, but some naughty fetuses, due to playfulness, will also make one or two relatively large fetal movements.

At 38 weeks, it is normal to feel a decrease in fetal activity. The fetus is mature enough to be born. The space and amniotic fluid in the womb are relatively reduced, the baby cannot make large movements of turning and kicking, and you may not feel the small movements of the baby.

Most pregnant women do not notice fetal movement until 18 to 20 weeks of gestation. At first, the fetal movements are about 3 to 5 times per hour; As the pregnancy progresses, the number of fetal movements gradually increases, reaching a peak at 28-32 weeks of pregnancy; It gradually decreases after 38 weeks of pregnancy. Between day and night, the number of fetal movements varies.

Usually at 8 to 12 o'clock in the morning, the fetal movement is even, and then gradually decreases; At 2 to 3 p.m., fetal movements are minimal; By 8 to 11 p.m., the fetus was moving frequently.

What to do if the fetal movement decreases.

First of all, if you find that the fetal movement is suddenly reduced, you should go to the hospital to do relevant examinations, do fetal heart rate monitoring, through fetal heart rate monitoring can know the condition of the fetus, if the fetal heart rate monitoring is normal, you don't have to worry anymore, if the fetal heart rate monitoring is not normal, it may be caused by hypoxia, and the pregnant woman is likely to have to take oxygen for a period of time.

Secondly, the reduction of fetal movement is also related to the daily life of pregnant women, if the daily life is more regular, the fetal movement will be more regular, if the mood fluctuations of pregnant women are larger, it will also cause fetal fetal movement disorders, so pregnant women should not worry too much, as long as they do a good job of pregnancy check-up regularly, the fetus will not have problems.

Finally, if the pregnant woman's body temperature is relatively high, the blood flow in the uterus will be reduced, which will also cause the fetus to reduce fetal movement, and the fetus will be quieter in the abdomen at this time, so once the pregnant woman has a fever, she should be in time, but remember not to use the drug casually, and follow the doctor's instructions to use the drug.
