Do I still need prenatal check-ups when I am about to be 8 months pregnant?

Patient's question:

I am currently 7 months pregnant and will soon be 8 months. However, the doctors say I still need to go to the hospital every month for a health check-up. But I feel that since I am already 8 months pregnant and the baby is about to be born, I don't need to go to the hospital for health check-ups anymore. Do I still need to do health check-ups at 8 months of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

In the situation where a child is about 8 months pregnant, it is necessary to promptly go to the hospital for a detailed examination and diagnosis of the fetal position. Based on the examination results, it is advisable to correct any abnormal fetal position in a timely manner. Pay attention to adjusting your own symptoms, do not be anxious, focus on enhancing nutrition, and avoid malnutrition that may affect the child's growth and development, which is relatively safe. Carefully observe the specific symptoms and adjust accordingly.
