Pregnant women must pay attention to the condition of fetal heart rate and fetal movement. Pregnant women should follow the doctor's requirements and go to the hospital on time for fetal heart rate monitoring. And in daily life, one should count fetal movements at a fixed time every day. So, how long does fetal movement last abnormally?
Pregnant women feel frequent fetal movements, and if the fetus keeps moving continuously for 1-2 hours, it is considered an abnormal symptom. At this time, it is necessary to be vigilant because it may be caused by fetal hypoxia in the uterus. At this time, it is best for pregnant women to go to the hospital to listen to fetal heart sounds, and if necessary, undergo fetal heart monitoring.
The normal fetal movements during pregnancy are no less than 3-5 times per hour, and the number of fetal movements within 12 hours should reach 30-40 times. However, the situation of each fetus is different, and there may be some individual differences. Some fetuses can achieve up to 100 fetal movements within 12 hours. However, if the fetal movement is regular and rhythmic, and there is no significant change, it indicates that the fetal movement is normal.
If the number of fetal movements per hour is less than 3 times, or if the number of fetal movements in 12 hours is less than 10 times, especially if the fetal movements disappear, it is a danger signal. Pregnant women should seek medical attention immediately and must not delay. Because this is a manifestation of intrauterine asphyxia, if measures are not taken in a timely manner, it may lead to fetal asphyxia and death.
