When does the second fetal movement begin?

With the opening of the second-child policy, many people have started planning for a second child. There is not much difference between the time when fetal movement starts after the second child and the time when the first child begins. Some people are more sensitive and feel fetal movement earlier. The movement of the fetus can reflect the situation of the fetus in the uterus. If there is abnormal fetal movement, you need to go to the hospital for examination in time to avoid intrauterine distress and decreased amniotic fluid.

How long does it take to feel fetal movement during second pregnancy?

Fetal movement refers to the movement of the fetus in the uterus impacting the uterine wall. After 4 months of pregnancy, the mother can clearly feel the movement of the fetus. The number, speed, strength, etc. of fetal movements indicate the safety of the fetus. Normal obvious fetal movements should be no less than 3-5 times per hour, and more than 30-40 times in 12 hours. The fetal movement count can only serve as a sign of the fetal safety. Only through comprehensive analysis can we make accurate judgments. Help mother and baby safely through pregnancy and delivery.

Does the second pregnancy start earlier than the first?

There is no direct relationship between feeling fetal movement and the number of births. Generally, after 4 months of pregnancy, that is, from the 5th month, the mother can clearly feel the fetal movement.

As the baby grows bigger, he will begin to stretch his hands, kick his legs, and hit the uterine wall in the uterus. This is fetal movement. The number, speed, strength, etc. of fetal movements indicate the safety of the fetus. Generally speaking, most pregnant women can feel fetal movement at 18-20 weeks of pregnancy. It will be mild at first and the frequency will be less, about 3-5 times per hour. The more weeks of pregnancy, the more active the fetal movement, which generally reaches its peak after 28-32 weeks of pregnancy. But towards the end of pregnancy, the number of fetal movements decreases.

Is it normal to have frequent fetal movements during second pregnancy?

Frequent fetal movements refer to an increase in the number of fetal movements that pregnant women feel. Clinically, the fetal movements vary at different stages of pregnancy. It is important to distinguish between physiological increases in the number of fetal movements and pathological frequent fetal movements.

Normal pregnant women begin to feel fetal movement at 20 weeks of pregnancy. As the pregnancy progresses, the fetal movement gradually increases, reaching a peak at 32-34 weeks of pregnancy. After 38 weeks of pregnancy, the fetal movement gradually decreases. If the fetal movement is greater than or equal to 30 times/12 hours or greater than or equal to 4 times/hour, it is normal.

If the fetal movement is less than or equal to 3 times per hour for 2 consecutive days, it is abnormal and the fetus may be suffering from intrauterine hypoxia and distress. During the day, there are two peaks of fetal movement, one between 7 and 9 in the morning and the other between 11 at night and 1 in the morning of the next day. At other times, especially in the early morning, fetal movements are relatively rare. The general rule is no less than 3-5 times per hour, and the fetal movement is about 30-40 times every 12 hours. However, if the fetal movement exceeds 10 times per hour, it should be considered as frequent fetal movement and you should go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
