Patient's question:
I am six months pregnant now. Recently, I haven't felt much fetal movement, and I suspect there might be a miscarriage. However, I'm not sure, so I'm wondering if it's possible to have a miscarriage at six months of pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
At six months of pregnancy, it should not be called a miscarriage but rather a stillbirth. You can go to the hospital for a color ultrasound. Have you had any abnormalities during your prenatal check-ups, such as high blood pressure or diabetes? If you are in good health, the chances of recurrence are very low. If a stillbirth does occur again, there are currently no effective methods to save it. During the day, pay attention to fetal movement by lying down quietly and counting for several hours in the morning, afternoon, and evening. When you are busy, you might sometimes naturally miss the baby's movements.
