Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Is it normal for fetal movement to be too frequent?Doctor's answer:
Within a day, the normal frequency and number of fetal movements are generally 3 to 5 times per hour, with approximately 50 to 70 movements in 12 hours. However, throughout the day, fetal movements are least active in the morning, increase after 6 p.m., and are most active between 8 and 11 p.m. If a pregnant woman experiences this kind of pattern, it indicates that the fetus has developed its own sleep cycle, which is referred to as the "fetal biological clock."
