The fetus does not move and the fetal heart rate is normal

The fetal heart rate is normal but the fetus does not move is generally caused by the fetus entering the pelvis in the third trimester, which is a normal physiological phenomenon. However, it cannot be ruled out that it is the cause of fever in pregnant women, and similar reactions can occur if there is poor placental function and intrauterine hypoxia. In addition, it is also associated with improper medication and umbilical cord around the neck.

Throughout the pregnancy, the pregnant mother will go to the obstetric department for several check-ups to keep abreast of the fetus's condition. Some pregnant women may have a normal fetal heart rate but the fetus does not move after the examination, and they will inevitably be a little worried about what will happen to the fetus. So what happens when the fetal heart rate is normal but the fetus doesn't move?

1. Physiological factors of normal fetal heart rate but immobility of the fetus.

At 4-5 months of pregnancy, the fetus in the womb will begin to do activities such as reaching and kicking, which is called fetal movement. However, in the third trimester of pregnancy, after the fetus enters the pelvis, the fetus's range of motion will become smaller, and the fetal movement will naturally decrease. So if there are no other abnormal reactions, there is no need to worry too much.

2. Pathological factors of normal fetal heartbeat but immobility of the fetus.

1.Fever in pregnant women.

A normal fetal heartbeat but immobility of the fetus may be associated with a fever in the woman. Once the pregnant mother has a fever, it will lead to an increase in peripheral blood flow, and the blood flow in the placenta and uterus will be reduced a lot, resulting in a slight lack of oxygen. At this time, it is best for pregnant mothers to go to the hospital for examination in time, and try to take physical measures to help reduce fever, and use antipyretics under the guidance of doctors if necessary.

2.Poor placental function.

One of the main factors that cause abnormal fetal movement when the placenta is not functioning well. In particular, when the placenta does not supply enough oxygen and blood flow, the fetus will have a decrease or even disappear fetal movement due to long-term hypoxia and ischemia.

3.Intrauterine hypoxia.

If the fetus moves less than 10 times in 12 hours, the fetus is in danger, i.e., intrauterine hypoxia has occurred. If the fetal movement stops, it is a sign that the fetus is severely asphyxiated in utero. At this time, it is important to go to the obstetrics department for examination and treatment as soon as possible to prevent the risk of suffocation.

4.Improper medication.

If the pregnant mother does not take medication properly, especially sedatives, it will cause the fetal movement to decrease. At this time, it is necessary to go for a check-up and stop taking the medication in time.

5.The umbilical cord is tighter around the neck.

Once the umbilical cord is tightly wrapped around the neck, the number of fetal movements of the fetus will be greatly reduced, and even suffocation will occur due to poor breathing.

Many pregnant mothers, during pregnancy, do not see the fetal heartbeat for a long time, and are very worried about whether the fetus has stopped pregnancy. So, what's the deal with the fetus not moving? It may be that the fetus is developing slowly, or it is possible that the fetus has really miscarried, but the specific situation still needs to be checked and confirmed by the hospital in time.

After pregnancy, women generally reach about 18-20 weeks of pregnancy, and women will gradually begin to feel the situation of fetal movement, and before the fetal movement appears, the specific child's condition needs to be determined by prenatal examination. If fetal movements are reduced or too frequent, then hypoxia is more likely to be considered. It is recommended that after this situation occurs, it is best to go to the hospital for a fetal heart rate monitoring examination, and then treat the symptoms after diagnosis.

Usually pay more attention to rest and don't get tired. Don't do strenuous exercise. It may be normal for the fetus to not move, after the fetus has fetal movement, it is not always moving but also has a time to rest, and some fetuses also do not like to move, when the fetus is sleeping, the fetus will not move, or the fetus will move less, the fetus does not like to move often all the time, if the fetus has been active more frequently, and then slowly reduces the frequency of movement, it may be caused by other factors.

Pregnant women can pat their belly or be more active, usually the fetus will wake up and respond, if there is no response, a fetal heart rate monitoring will be done. It may be because the fetus is sleeping, it may be caused by fetal hypoxia, or it may be because the fetus's activities are restricted in the later stages of pregnancy and there is a significant decrease, which needs to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis. When the baby is motionless, you can try to put some gentle **, maybe the baby can feel the wonderful ** and move to interact with the mother!

At 35 weeks of pregnancy, if there are symptoms of anxiety that may affect the fetus, it is considered depression during pregnancy. If necessary, go to the psychiatric department of the hospital and think about it. Contributes to the smoothness of efficiency, or alternatively, with medicated conditioning.

Pay attention to your daily routine and communicate with people more. Strengthen physical training and reduce stress. You should also let your family know, cooperate, and try not to be angry or anxious.

If a pregnant woman is often anxious and nervous, it may affect the IQ of the fetus, but it does not necessarily affect the intelligence of the fetus. Don't be cranky during pregnancy, protect the fetus with peace of mind, do a good job of prenatal check-ups regularly, eat more vegetables and fruits, supplement vitamins and minerals, eliminate fear and worry, and don't pass on the bad mood to the next generation. If you are emotionally stressed for a long time, the pregnant woman's own immunity will decrease, which will have a great impact on the baby's physical and mental development.

In addition, if you are anxious for a long time during pregnancy, it may not affect the mental development of the fetus during pregnancy, but it will affect the normal pregnancy. It is necessary to relax and maintain a happy mood, and people with severe anxiety during pregnancy can lead to miscarriage. In addition, being anxious and angry during pregnancy may have an impact on all aspects of the fetus.
