How does the child behave before childbirth?

Every future mother is looking forward to the moment when she can go to the maternity hospital, after some time after that an unusually happy event will take place in her life - the birth of a baby. Although there are quite a few different signs that can help a pregnant woman to determine the approach of an early delivery, often future mothers come to the hospital too early, and therefore have to go home again.

To understand if a baby is going to be born very soon, in most cases it is enough to pay attention to his behavior. In this article, we will tell you how the child should behave before childbirth, and what is the sign of trouble and the reason for immediate contact with a doctor.

How do children behave before giving birth?

The main sign of the approach of an early delivery is the moment when the future mother drops her stomach. Meanwhile, normally it happens 2-3 weeks before the onset of a happy event, so it is very early to think about sending to a maternity hospital.

Nevertheless, it is at this time that the character of the baby's movements changes. This is due to the fact that now the bones of the hips of the future mother fix the position of the crumb, the amount of amniotic fluid decreases, so that the child can no longer move so actively in the tummy, as before.

However, this does not mean at all that during this period a woman in an "interesting" position will not feel the movements of her future son or daughter. On the contrary, the movements of the crumbs are now periodic, but they are much stronger than before. Often, pregnant women note that 1-2 weeks before the birth, they experienced intense tremors, causing pain and discomfort in various parts of the abdomen, as well as frequent urination.

In the future, as the birth approaches, the frequency of such perturbations will decrease every day, as the growth and other biometric indicators of the baby are rapidly increasing, and it becomes unusually tight in the mother's womb.

In some cases, future moms have a question, is it normal if the child behaves before the onset of labor exactly the same as before. In fact, if a toddler is active enough, this does not mean that something is wrong with him. On the contrary, it usually turns out to be a sign of readiness and indignation of crumbs, although this situation often confuses future mothers.

Most doctors agree that if the child's behavior before birth does not change and he remains rather active, it helps the generic process, because the mother will better feel her child and at a subconscious level understand what her daughter or son wants.

That's why you should not be frightened if your future offspring actively stirs in the stomach, despite the late gestation period. Probably, the baby does not differ in large sizes, so it is quite spacious and comfortable to be in the mother's womb. At the same time, a sudden and sudden increase in the frequency of his movements can be a dangerous signal. In such a situation it is necessary to remain calm and wait a little, but if the baby does not calm down, it is better to consult a doctor.

If, on the contrary, the child becomes unusually sluggish, and the future mother feels less than 6 of his movements per day or does not feel them at all, you should immediately consult a doctor, as this may indicate fetal heart failure and other dangerous situations.

In general, the amount of tangible stirring crumbs shortly before birth should be 48-50 per day. Nevertheless, it should be understood that the body of every pregnant woman is individual, so this figure is very approximate. In order not to doubt if everything is in order with your baby, with any changes in the nature of his movements, consult a doctor and, despite everything, stay calm.
