Every pregnant mother will pay constant attention to the fetus in her body, especially after five months, the fetus will start to become active in her belly and gradually become in a state of punching and kicking. Mothers' attention to fetal babies will also increase. But in the late stages of pregnancy, babies tend to be more obedient, so how long until full-term fetal movement decreases can they be born?
Pregnancy at 37 to 42 weeks is called full-term, at which point the fetus will descend to the lower end of the pelvis. If the fetal position is correct, the fetus will be in a head down position, and the female pelvis will be in a V-shaped state. The further down, the smaller the space will be. If the fetus is larger in size, this situation will make it difficult for the baby to move, and fetal movement will naturally decrease, but it does not mean that there is a possibility of giving birth immediately.
Some babies are naturally inactive, and after reaching full term, their bodies grow and their space becomes smaller, making them less active. But it is important to observe carefully. A small amount of fetal movement should be a normal condition. If the fetus remains motionless, it is necessary to immediately undergo examination to prevent hypoxia or other abnormal conditions in the fetus. There is not much correlation between the amount of fetal movement and how long it takes to give birth.
After reaching full term during pregnancy, it is important to constantly observe changes in oneself. If there is blood, water breakthrough, or regular abdominal pain, go to the hospital immediately. During the process, lie flat and raise your hips to avoid jolts and prevent a large amount of amniotic fluid from flowing out, causing fetal hypoxia. If there is no situation, you should always feel the state of the fetus in the abdomen. If it is not moving for a long time or too much movement, you should immediately go for a pregnancy test to prevent accidents.
