Frequent fetal movements during sleep at night

Pregnant women in the second half of their pregnancy will experience fetal movements. Sometimes pregnant women feel that the fetus moves more frequently at night. The fetal movements are caused by the movement of the fetus in the belly, but excessive fetal movements may be a sign of unhealthy fetus, and parents are also very worried. So why does the baby move so strongly when sleeping?

1. Sleeping position. If the pregnant woman's sleeping position causes discomfort to the fetus, the fetus will be compressed in the belly, which will easily lead to fetal movement. Pregnant women are advised to sleep on their side to avoid oppression on the fetus as much as possible. It is not recommended to sleep on your stomach during pregnancy. When the fetus is relatively large, sleeping on your back will also affect the pregnant woman's breathing. It is recommended to sleep on your side.

2. The fetus needs nutrients. If pregnant women eat early at night, the body's nutrition supply is insufficient, and the fetus is prone to fetal movement when it is hungry at night. It is recommended to eat some cookies and drink a glass of milk at this time, which can protect the stomach and intestines, and also provide nutritional supplements, so that the fetus will not run around easily.

3. The fetus lacks a sense of belonging. When the fetus is relatively large, it has already acquired receptiveness and is very sensitive to external sounds. It is relatively quiet at night, and the fetus cannot hear the sound of the pregnant woman, so it is easy for the fetus to move frequently. At this time, you can play music for the baby, listening to soothing songs, which is also very helpful for improving sleep.

The baby in the mother's belly can also hear the noise outside. In the quiet environment at night, it is easy for the fetus to feel insecure, so you have to think about moving more. It is to attract the mother's attention and want her to chat. Therefore, pregnant women can play some music before going to bed at night, which can make the baby more comfortable and of course will not cause frequent fetal movements.
