What symptoms will the pregnant mother have if the fetus stops

The early stages of pregnancy are very important, as the mother has not yet felt the baby's movements. Even if there is something abnormal in the fetus, the human body will not recognize it immediately. In fact, if the fetus stops growing, our body will immediately show symptoms of discomfort. If it is discovered early, the fetus can even be saved. Once it is discovered that the fetus has stopped growing, abortion surgery or medical abortion should be performed immediately to remove the gestational sac to avoid affecting the pregnant woman's body. So, what symptoms will the pregnant mother have if the fetus stops growing?

1. The baby's fetal movement feels very weak

During the 16th to 20th week of pregnancy, the fetus begins to have noticeable fetal movements that can be recognized by the mother. As the number of weeks of pregnancy increases, the baby's fetal movements also increase. After 30 weeks of pregnancy, the normal fetus will move at least 3 times per hour, and the number of fetal movements within 12 hours will be about 30-40 times or more. However, for fetuses approaching full term, reduced fetal movement is normal, which may be related to the fetus's sleep quality. Fetal movement is one of the most objective signs of fetal development, and it is one of the signal characteristics that the fetus sends to the present to send a safe signal. Therefore, pregnant women can often feel and grasp the fetal movement of their children, and can feel the cheerfulness and health of their children.

2. Unexplained abdominal pain

During pregnancy, pregnant women will feel abdominal pain, which is normal. However, the occurrence of lower abdominal pain with unclear causes and the characteristics of muscle spasm is a cause for concern. Lower abdominal distension and pain may also cause vaginal bleeding, which may be a sign of ectopic pregnancy or miscarriage. If there is bleeding in the abdominal cavity, it will cause bursts of tearing pain. If a pregnant woman has a noticeable downward feeling in her abdomen or obvious pain or discomfort in the lower abdomen, she should see a doctor immediately.

3. Uterine development retardation

During the pregnancy check-up, if the fundus of the uterus does not reach the standard height ratio according to the number of weeks of pregnancy, it may be a sign of delayed fetal language development. The weight of pregnant women increases at an average rate of 350 grams per week from the 13th week of pregnancy to full term. From the 13th to the 28th week of pregnancy, the weight gain of the pregnant woman is mainly due to her own weight gain, while after the 28th week of pregnancy, it is mainly due to the weight gain of the fetus. After 28 weeks of pregnancy, if the pregnancy check-up finds that the pregnant woman's uterine height is less than the 10th percentile of the uterine height for that week of pregnancy, there is a possibility that the fetus may have delayed language development. The fetus' weight, body length, and head diameter are all normal, and the number of body cells in the internal organs is reduced. Generally, there is no effective treatment. Such fetuses have neurological development disorders after birth.

4. Abnormal amniotic fluid in pregnant women

The amniotic fluid of pregnant women is one of the factors that maintain the survival of the fetus. Once the amniotic fluid flow is found to be abnormal, pregnant mothers need to be vigilant. Generally, the normal amniotic fluid flow at full term is about 800~1000ml. If the amniotic fluid flow is more than 1500ml or even 2000ml, it is called polyhydramnios.

In short, if symptoms of fetal arrest occur in early pregnancy, there is a great possibility that it will threaten the mother's physical and mental health. Therefore, pregnant mothers should pay attention to some reaction symptoms to avoid injuries.
