What are the fetal movements like in the head position

Pregnant mothers are usually delighted when they first learn that their baby has signs of fetal movement, and they will also let the father share this joy. Fetal movement is precisely a physiological phenomenon of the baby's development in the mother's belly, and the frequency and type of fetal movement in each part of the baby are different. Therefore, many mothers want to know what the baby's head position fetal movement is like.

How does the fetus move when the head is in the correct position?

When the fetus develops to a certain extent, its activities can be felt by the pregnant mother. Fetal movement is an indicator of whether the fetal development is normal. Therefore, many pregnant mothers are very concerned about when the fetal movement begins. At how many months of pregnancy does fetal movement occur? Generally speaking, first-time mothers will feel fetal movement for the first time around 18-20 weeks of pregnancy, but the amplitude of the fetal movement is very small. Most pregnant mothers can clearly feel the movement of the fetus after 4 months of pregnancy, that is, from the 5th month.

It is normal to have fetal movement in the fourth month of pregnancy. Some pregnant mothers are more sensitive and can feel fetal movement very early, but others may need to wait a little longer to feel fetal movement. If fetal movement does not occur as expected, pregnant mothers should not be anxious. It may be that the baby is too small and the amplitude of the movement is not large enough for the pregnant mother to feel. If you are still worried, you can go to the hospital for a check-up to observe the condition of the fetus. As long as the prenatal check-up is normal, there will be no problem with the fetus.

Fetal movement varies at different stages of pregnancy. As the fetus grows, fetal movement is generally most obvious at 30 and 32 weeks. At 20 weeks, the average number of fetal movements is about 200, which increases to 375 at 32 weeks. The number of fetal movements per day may be between 100 and 700. Normal times when fetal movements are frequent are before going to bed at night, after meals, when taking a bath, when talking to the belly, when listening to music, etc.

Sometimes frequent fetal movements may be due to fetal hypoxia. If the fetal intrauterine hypoxia worsens, the fetal movement will gradually weaken. This is a sign of danger to the fetus and appropriate rescue measures must be taken.
