Is fetal heart monitoring for 16 minutes and 8 fetal movements normal?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Normal and obvious fetal movement should not be less than 3 to 5 times in 1 hour, and the number of obvious fetal movements in 12 hours should be more than 30 to 40 times. However, due to the large individual differences in fetuses, some fetuses may move about 100 times in 12 hours. As long as the fetal movement is regular, rhythmic, and does not change significantly, it proves that the fetal development is normal.
