Is it normal for the fetus to move less in the eighth month of pregnancy?

During the eighth month of pregnancy, it is normal to see a slight decrease in fetal movement, but if there is a significant decrease, it is necessary to examine the baby to find out the exact cause. In the eighth month of pregnancy, with the growth of the fetus, the space for movement in the uterus will be gradually reduced, and the fetus will not be able to move easily, thus the fetal movement may be slightly reduced. If it happens to be during the baby’s sleep time to count the fetal movement, the fetal movement will also be reduced, at this time can be measured once again at intervals, if it can return to normal, is normal. However, if the fetal movement is obviously reduced, less than 10 times in 12 hours, there is a risk of fetal hypoxia. At this time, you need to go to the gynecology department of the hospital as soon as possible for consultation and examination. If there is a problem, further treatment such as oxygen inhalation may be needed. Counting fetal movement is a simple means for pregnant women to self-monitor the fetus, in addition to the fetus’s own reasons, but also by the influence of pregnant women’s eating, activity, sleep changes, so every number of fetal movement may be different, pregnant women do not need to be too anxious.
