Picture of 23 weeks fetus in the womb

During pregnancy, the fetus survives and moves in the amniotic fluid of the mother's uterine cavity. In the sixth month of pregnancy (late pregnancy), because the amniotic fluid flow in the amniotic cavity is relatively large, the fetus has a larger range of movement in the uterine cavity, and the fetal position is not fixed. The position of the fetus in the mother's uterine cavity may change at any time and anywhere. After 28 weeks of pregnancy, the position of the fetus in the mother's uterine cavity will be relatively fixed. After 32 weeks, with the growth of the fetus and the decrease of amniotic fluid, the fetal position will be fixed and generally will not change.

In the sixth month of pregnancy, the fetus has relatively large space for movement in the uterus, so the fetus can show three fetal positions in the abdomen at this time, head position, breech position or transverse position, but the head position is more common. Breech presentation and transverse presentation are relatively less common than head presentation, and many breech presentations or transverse presentations will turn into head presentations in the later stages. The cephalic presentation is suitable for normal delivery, but the foot first presentation and transverse presentation in the compound breech presentation are not suitable for normal delivery and require a caesarean section. Regardless of the fetal position, pregnant women need to count fetal movements, pay attention to abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding, and follow up if there is any inappropriateness.

In the sixth month of pregnancy, the fetal position in the uterus is not fixed. Because in the late pregnancy, that is, when doing a prenatal check-up after 6 months of pregnancy, the prenatal check-up doctor begins to feel the fetal position of the fetus in the uterus. If you find that the fetus is in a transverse position, just start to correct the fetal position.

In the sixth month of pregnancy, because the fetus is relatively small and the amniotic fluid flow is relatively abundant, the fetus has relatively large space to move in the uterus. The fetal position may be cephalic, breech or transverse. There is no need to worry about this situation. Just do regular prenatal check-ups. In the sixth month of pregnancy, remember to make an appointment for a fetal ultrasound examination. During pregnancy, pay attention to a balanced diet and increase the intake of protein foods and fresh fruits.
