38-week fetal development standard data

The growth and development of the fetus has always been a topic of concern to pregnant mothers and their families, which is related to the happiness of the whole family. At 38 weeks of pregnancy, the baby will be born soon. So, what are the standard data information about baby's development at 38 weeks? What are the common problems of 38-week fetus? Next, I will explain it in detail for everyone.

38-week baby development standard data information

At 38 weeks of pregnancy, the average biparietal diameter of the fetus is 9.08 ± 0.59 cm, the average abdominal circumference is 30.63 ± 2.83 cm, the average femoral length is 7.20 ± 0.43 cm, and the standard data of the baby's head circumference is 33.3 cm.

3 What are the common problems of 8-week-old fetuses?

1. Closely monitor the condition of the fetus: When the fetal head is "connected" with the mother's pelvis, the frequency, strength and intensity of the fetal movement begin to weaken, which is self-evident. The fetus's head has already entered the mother's birth canal and continues to move toward the birth canal entrance. This task is the most important for the fetus. The mother may feel that the fetal movement is less, and some pregnant mothers deliberately stimulate the fetus outside the abdomen because of anxiety, which actually affects the work of the fetus. Of course, if the number of fetal movements decreases significantly, less than 10 times within 12 hours, or the baby's fetal movements decrease by 50% compared to before, or if you use your sixth sense to detect that the fetus is abnormal, don't hesitate and go to the hospital immediately.

2. Reduce prenatal anxiety: As the delivery date approaches, many pregnant women will experience an anxious state of mind. At this time, pregnant mothers can communicate with some "experienced people", and you will find that the delivery process is actually not as terrible as you imagined. You can also do some moderate exercise, such as taking a walk, hand-knitting, art painting, etc., instead of lying in bed all day and feeling distracted, which is a great way to relieve prenatal anxiety for expectant mothers.

The above is some of the content about the standard data of baby development at 38 weeks that I introduced to you. I hope it will be helpful to you. Pregnant women are very prone to prenatal depression during this period, so fathers should always watch over their mothers, often counsel their mothers, and relieve their stress.
