Patient's question:
Hello, at the 20th week of pregnancy, there was a sudden loud noise "thump," and at that moment, the fetus moved suddenly, several times larger than usual fetal movement. This was due to the fetus being startled, or it could be a sign of fetal distress in the womb, which happened to coincide. If the fetus is startled, will it affect the brain and hearing?Doctor's answer:
However, it is not recommended to go to crowded places because the air quality is poor. It is advised to have regular prenatal check-ups during pregnancy. Every four weeks for the first 36 weeks, and once a week after the 36th week. Pay attention to nutrition during pregnancy. Supplement folic acid in the first three months, and start taking calcium, iron, and other trace elements needed by the body from the fourth month onwards. Generally, doctors will advise women with signs of genetic risks to maintain personal hygiene and avoid sexual activity. Additionally, patients should also pay attention to having a comfortable environment, which is beneficial for rest. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
