There are a number of tests that need to be done in the 4th month of pregnancy, such as measuring height, weight, uterine fundal height, blood pressure, fetal heart rate and other routine tests as well as Down’s syndrome screening.
By measuring the height, weight, uterine fundal height and other routine tests in the 4th month of pregnancy, the development of the fetus can be assessed to see if it corresponds to the gestational week. Measuring the blood pressure of the pregnant woman can rule out whether she is suffering from gestational hypertension. At the same time it is also necessary to listen to the fetal heart to find out if the baby’s heartbeat is normal.
A Down’s syndrome test is also required in the fourth month of pregnancy to determine the risk of congenital stupidity and neural tube defects in the fetus.
Pregnant women are advised to follow the doctor’s instructions for regular pregnancy tests during pregnancy to observe the development of the fetus.
