A sudden decrease in fetal movement at 36 weeks of gestation is unusual and may indicate intrauterine hypoxia. It is recommended that women record fetal movement frequency daily during the third trimester of pregnancy, that is, around 36 weeks of gestation. This can be recorded three times in the morning, middle and evening, and each time the fetal movement frequency is recorded for one hour. Add the fetal movement frequency obtained every day to estimate the fetal movement frequency for twelve hours. If the number of fetal movements obtained by monitoring and calculation is less than 20 times, it is recommended to go to the hospital for examination to see if there is any abnormality in fetal growth. If the number of fetal movements is less than 10 times, be sure to take the time to go to the hospital for examination, because at this time there is a high probability that the fetus has already experienced intrauterine hypoxia.
