Is it a boy or a girl if the fetal movement is strong?

Normally, the baby's fetal movement is not less than 3 to 5 times per hour, and the number of obvious fetal movements in 12 hours is more than 30 to 40 times. However, due to the large individual differences between fetuses, some fetuses move about 100 times in 12 hours. As long as the fetal movement is regular and rhythmic, it proves that the baby's development is normal. Some people say that boys are naturally active and girls are naturally elegant. But does frequent fetal movement mean it’s a boy?

Is frequent fetal movement a boy?

Frequent fetal movements do not necessarily mean it is a boy.

1. To know whether it is a boy or a girl, pregnant mothers can use the above factors to test whether it is a boy or a girl. However, after personal verification by many mothers, a small number of exceptions will occur, and it is not completely accurate. It depends on where the baby's fetal movements are. Most boys move up and down in the belly, that is, they move on the left and then on the right, while girls move around the belly button. Then look at the bulge in the baby's abdomen when the baby moves. Whether it is a boy or a girl, there will be a bulge in the mother's belly when the baby moves. For boys, the bulge is a bag, as if his little fist or foot is pressing on your belly. For a girl, your belly is bulging, and you can obviously see that your belly is bulging high, as if the baby's buttocks are sticking out. The final method is to observe the baby's fetal movement. When boys shake, they usually kick here and punch there. Although they can fight back, it is very rare. Girls will also fight violently, but most of the time, their stomachs will be like waves, rising and falling.

2. The faster the baby's fetal movement, the more likely it is a boy, because boys are more active. If the baby's fetal movement is too late, it is likely to be a girl, because girls like quietness. Pregnant women usually feel the baby's fetal movement at 20 weeks. If the baby's fetal movement is early, it indicates that the probability of having a boy is high. If it is later than 20 weeks, the pregnancy is likely to be a girl. Of course, such inferences are not necessarily 100% correct.

Causes of frequent fetal movements

1. When a pregnant woman finds that the baby's fetal movement is less than 20 times in 12 hours, or less than 3 times per hour, it indicates that the fetus is suffering from hypoxia and the baby's life may be seriously endangered. In the early stages of oxygen deficiency, the number of fetal movements will increase because the fetus will become restless due to lack of oxygen. When the fetal intrauterine hypoxia worsens, the fetal movement gradually weakens and the frequency decreases, which is a sign of fetal danger. If effective treatment measures are not taken at this time, the baby will experience a decrease in fetal movement or even a decrease in the fetal heartbeat, and eventually die. This whole process takes about 12 to 48 hours. Therefore, once a pregnant woman finds abnormal fetal movement, she must not take chances. She should go to the obstetrics department for treatment first. Immediate treatment can often avert danger.
