Patient's question:
[Condition Description: At this time, the baby's head should be fixed, but our baby's head is still always turning, and the limbs are also moving more frequently. Treatment history and effectiveness: The results of the hospital check-up just today. What help do you want: Is this situation normal? Due date is August 24th]Doctor's answer:
Before 30 weeks of pregnancy, the fetal position can often turn to head-down position on its own. If it remains breech after 30 weeks, correction should be performed, commonly using the knee-chest position.Method: The pregnant woman should empty her bladder, loosen her belt, and assume the knee-chest position. Kneel, placing both lower legs flat on the bed, with thighs perpendicular to the surface. Slightly separate the legs, pressing the chest and knees against the bed while leaving the abdomen and the buttocks raised. Turn the head to one side, bending both arms and placing them on either side of the head with elbows flexed.
Perform this position twice daily for 15 minutes each time. After one week of continuous practice, a follow-up check should be conducted.
This position helps the fetal buttocks exit the pelvic cavity, utilizing the force of gravity to guide the fetal head, which follows the curved surface of the uterus formed by the fetal back, into the head-down position.
