At 29 weeks of pregnancy, why have you noticed a decrease in fetal movement?

Patient's question:

No.

Doctor's answer:

Generally, around 16-20 weeks of pregnancy, the pregnant woman begins to consciously feel slight fetal movements in the abdomen. As the pregnancy progresses, the fetal movements gradually become stronger and more frequent. At 24 weeks of pregnancy, there are approximately 132 movements every 12 hours. After 38 weeks, the fetal movements gradually decrease, and they become even more noticeable after the pregnancy is overdue. It is recommended to check with an ultrasound.
