What’s wrong with frequent fetal movements near the due date?

Frequent fetal movement near the due date is considered to be related to external stimulation, intrauterine hypoxia and fetal malposition.
1. External stimulation: in late pregnancy, fetal movement is also affected by fetal sleep cycle. Maternal diet, activity, intravenous glucose infusion, abdominal oscillation or sound stimulation can change the fetal sleep cycle. This may be manifested by frequent fetal movements at certain times.
2. Fetal intrauterine hypoxia: If the pregnant woman has placental abruption, umbilical cord compression, etc., it may cause acute intrauterine hypoxia, which may be manifested as enhanced and frequent fetal movements.
