Why does my stomach jump in late pregnancy?

Many pregnant women may have the feeling that their abdomen sometimes jumps, and they don’t know why. Some people think it is the baby’s fetal movement, but although the baby’s fetal movement is regular, sometimes it is more frequent and sometimes it is quieter. However, the abdominal jumping is not a fixed frequency. Some pregnant women may think it is the baby’s heartbeat. Although the fetus will grow stronger with the increase of pregnancy weeks, it will not be strong to this extent.

If in this case, it's not the baby's fetal movement or his heart rate, then what is it? In fact, the baby is burping quietly, which many pregnant women don’t expect. Some pregnant women may wonder, the baby does not need to eat, its nutrition is mainly transported through the umbilical cord, and it does not need to be swallowed at all, why does it hiccup? Even though baby hiccups are different from adult hiccups, and are not caused by overeating, babies do not need to breathe through their mouths in the womb, but get oxygen from the pregnant mother, so why do babies hiccup?

In fact, the baby knows that sooner or later it will leave the mother's womb. The fetus is quite smart. At the 28th week of pregnancy, it begins to exercise its breathing ability. At this time, the fetus will drink the amniotic fluid in small sips. Sometimes, if it drinks too much by accident, it will irritate the fetus's diaphragm and cause the baby to hiccup. In fact, this is a normal physiological condition and there is no need to worry too much.

Pregnant mothers can determine the location of the baby's hiccups according to the location of the baby's hiccups. Generally, the location of hiccups is in the lungs, so the area where the hiccups are felt is where the baby's head is. When the baby hiccups, gently massage the abdomen, and it may be relieved after ten minutes. Sometimes the baby will hiccup in the middle of the night and in the morning. Don't worry too much. As long as you gently massage it, it will be restored quickly. Isn't it wonderful?
