Any changes in the fetal body will affect the pregnant woman's heart, causing her to worry and worry. Normally, the fetal body development is different every month of pregnancy, so pregnant women need to understand the developmental standards of the fetus at each stage in advance to determine whether the fetal development meets the standards. So, what should be the head circumference of a seven month old fetus?
A seven month pregnant fetus, if it is a male baby, will have a head circumference of around 40 centimeters; If it is a female baby, their head circumference is around 38 centimeters. The size of the fetal head circumference can evaluate the size of the fetal head, thereby determining the physical development of the fetus and helping pregnant women choose the best delivery method.
If the fetal head circumference is too small, it means that the fetal development is poor, which may be due to early malnutrition or medication affecting the head development of pregnant women. However, some families also suffer from microcephaly, resulting in their offspring having small heads. A small fetal head circumference can affect their brain development and be detrimental to their physical health. So pregnant women should pay special attention to their diet after pregnancy to ensure a healthy diet.
Moreover, pregnant women should take good care of themselves as much as possible and avoid going to places with high abortion rates to avoid being infected with harmful substances that may threaten fetal development. In addition, having a large fetal head circumference is also not good, as it may be caused by diseases such as hydrocephalus, which is not conducive to the physical health of the fetus. So when pregnant women discover that the fetal head circumference is too large, they should receive timely treatment to help solve the problem of fetal head circumference being too large.
