Fetal movement during pregnancy

Somewhere in the third week of pregnancy your future baby begins to contract heart, and after eight weeks the nervous system gradually forms. In 2 weeks after that the crumb can already irritate something, because the surface of his skin becomes sensitive. At the same time, his motor activity begins to manifest . Of course, at this stage his movements are unconscious and not coordinated. It is clear that my mother still can not feel the fetus moving. The child is still too small, and only occasionally touches the walls of the uterus. It is absolutely imperceptible, and any vibration from these touches is absorbed by amniotic fluid.

At the end of the fourth month of pregnancy - from the sixteenth week - the baby begins to react to sounds. Hearing a mother's voice or pleasant music, it can stop, and from sharp sounds and noise can get scared. The child perfectly feels the emotional situation around, so he always worries or rejoices with his mother. The wiggling of the fetus is now more coordinated.

When the kid gets older even for a week, he can already frown, a little later - at the eighteenth week - clenching his fists, touching his face, he can try to close it with handles, if he is frightened or tries to hide from the bright light. From now on, the expectant mother will feel the whole pregnancy stirring the fetus. It is becoming more active.

By the end of the first trimester of pregnancy, the crumb begins to realize that, by making certain movements, he can keep under control the extent and intensity of the impact of factors from the external environment. Starting from the womb wall and hiding deep into the mother's tummy, the kid reduces the unpleasant impact of loud sound, covering his face with handles, he protects himself from exposure to bright light.

Now it is very important for the future mother to maintain the correct development of the baby's brain. To do this, you need not only to constantly monitor the diet and strictly follow the recommendations of the doctor, but also to lead an exceptionally healthy lifestyle, so that only the best and valuable will come from the mother's blood to the baby. Now the main task of the child is to develop, and his mother's task is to provide and support this process as much as possible. If there is oxygen starvation, then the baby can stimulate the placenta with the help of intensive movements, with bleeding in the uterus activated, and with him an additional portion of oxygen and nutrients will come to the child.

The first stirring of the child will be timid and cautious, but very soon his motor activity will increase significantly, gain meaningfulness and perseverance. You will notice that the kid more often than not, that you are lying on your back, because because of this situation one of the largest vessels of the body is squeezed - a hollow vein. The child starts actively pushing, so you lie more comfortably.

At the twenty-fourth week of pregnancy, the fetal movement becomes as pronounced as the movement of the newborn baby. Sometimes women even complain about painful sensations from tremors. Reduce discomfort, you can, although a little studying the nature of the child. As much as possible, try to adjust to the regime of the baby, and then he will not be so intense in expressing his protest. It will gently roll over and sometimes expose a leg or handle, which so touches your mother.

At the end of the third trimester, closer to childbirth, a woman feels 20-60 shocks a day, varying in strength and intensity. Now you can easily understand the daily routine of the baby.

All women describe their feelings and feelings in their own way at the first movements of the child. Someone will say that they resemble the fluttering of butterflies, someone - that the shifts are like splashing fish in an aquarium, and someone at first can think that in new sensations the peristalsis of the intestine is to blame . When the baby's movements become frequent, confident and sufficiently appreciable, a woman perceives the life that has arisen as the most native of her little man, whom he will always be with.
