The fetal movement is particularly strong at the night of the due date, is it about to give birth?

Frequent fetal movements in the third trimester near the due date, that is, fetal movements greater than or equal to 30 times or more than 12 hours or greater than or equal to 4 hours are also normal, and expectant mothers do not need to worry too much at this time. In fact, normal pregnant women should begin to consciously move at 20 weeks of pregnancy, and with the increase of gestational age, fetal movements will gradually increase, and it will be a big peak at 32-34 weeks of pregnancy, but it should be noted that fetal movements will gradually decrease after 38 weeks of pregnancy. Due to individual fetal differences, some fetuses can move about 100 times in 12 hours, but less than 20 times means that the fetus has intrauterine hypoxia.

The number of fetal movements is more or less normal during the expected delivery period.

After 32 weeks of pregnancy, the fetus's movements become strong and regular. The doctor will advise the woman to count the movements of the baby to know how the baby is in the womb. In the case of lying on the left side in the morning, noon, and evening, the fetal movement is measured for one hour each, and then the number of fetal movements measured three times is added and multiplied by 4 to get the number of fetal movements in 12 hours.

In general, the fetal movement is more than 3 times per hour under normal conditions. More than 30 fetal movements in 12 hours indicate that the fetus is in good condition, less than 20 times means that the fetus has intrauterine hypoxia, and less than 10 times indicates that the fetus is in danger and has a poor prognosis.

Frequent fetal movements are not a precursor to childbirth, you need to pay attention to stomach pain, a sudden increase in amniotic fluid, and a sudden redness below.

First of all, frequent fetal movements before the due date are normal, and it is necessary to prepare for childbirth. Generally, it is not necessary for a pregnant woman to give birth on the day of due date, and it may be overdue, but it will not exceed two weeks at most. If the fetal movements are very frequent, you should go to the hospital to check whether there is a lack of amniotic fluid or normal contractions before delivery.

Secondly, after 32 weeks of pregnancy, the fetal movements become strong and powerful, and the doctor will advise the pregnant woman to keep track of the fetal movements every day. In the morning, noon, and evening when lying on the left side, measure the fetal movement for one hour, and then add the test results three times, and then multiply by 4, which is the number of fetal movements in 12 hours. Under normal circumstances, the number of fetal movements per hour is more than three times.

In addition, the fetal movement in the third trimester is severe, and the pregnant woman may always worry that there will be problems with the child. You can go to the hospital for examination more often to observe the changes in amniotic fluid, especially if there is less amniotic fluid, it will cause increased fetal movement, and the fetal movement will be worse under the condition of hypoxia. Especially before childbirth, many women have less amniotic fluid and should be taken in time.
