Patient's question:
At 35 weeks, I had a normal fetal heart monitoring yesterday morning. Then in the afternoon, I went shopping with my husband for New Year's clothes. We walked for over three hours. I felt very tired. This morning, the baby was very active again when I got up. But when I touched my stomach, it stopped moving again. Does this fetal movement mean the baby isn't choking on water?Doctor's answer:
In summary, it is normal to consider this as fetal movement in this situation, as fetal movement is not constant. It is recommended to visit the hospital for a fetal heart monitoring test and a color ultrasound to check the amniotic fluid and placental condition. Proper diet is advised, including avoiding spicy, irritating, and cold/hard foods, eating small meals frequently, engaging in appropriate exercise without overexertion, and attending prenatal check-ups on schedule. Maintaining a positive mood and reducing stress is also important. There is no need to worry excessively.
