One of the important milestones of pregnancy is the 17th week of pregnancy. This is the time when the fetus begins to move, so mothers often pay special attention to the baby in the womb. However, not all mothers know what the normal heart rate is for a 17-week-old fetus.

Fetal movement is also known as fetal movement. This is a sign when the fetus has movements such as turning around, limbs or the whole body of the fetus has movements that the mother feels. Many women who are first-time mothers often worry that the fetus moves more on the left side or the right side is better.

Before counting the number of fetal movements, the pregnant woman needs to empty her bladder, lie down and relax, and place her hand on her abdomen to count the number of fetal movements. It is best to count the number of fetal movements after a full meal and after urinating before counting.

Pregnant women with thick abdominal walls will have more difficulty feeling fetal movements than those with thin abdominal walls. Too much or too little amniotic fluid also affects the mother's ability to feel fetal movements.

Monitoring fetal movements is a simple and effective way for pregnant women to check the health of their unborn baby. Many pregnant women worry when they see the fetus moving continuously, so is it okay for the fetus to move a lot?

To know if the fetus is developing well, based on signs of weight, fetal movement, length, and size of the fetus by week. Of which, weight and fetal movement are the two most obvious signs.

In the first three months of pregnancy, the 12th week (equivalent to the 10th week after conception) is the last week of the first trimester, an important milestone in the pregnancy journey. The best news is that the rate of miscarriage has decreased significantly after passing the first three months of pregnancy.

At 22 weeks pregnant, the mother will see her body becoming rounder than ever with rapid weight gain. This is completely normal for the mother's body to have enough nutrients to help the fetus develop healthily.

22 weeks of pregnancy is an important time for pregnant women to have check-ups and perform obstetric tests during pregnancy. Based on the results of previous pregnancy check-ups, the doctor will decide what tests a pregnant woman at 22 weeks of pregnancy must do. However, there will still be some mandatory tests that every pregnant woman will undergo during the 22nd week pregnancy check-up to examine fetal abnormalities.

Along with the phenomenon of fetal movement, sometimes the pregnant mother will feel a hard lump in her abdomen, which can even "distort" the abdomen. Especially, in the last months of pregnancy, these contractions will appear more and more with different intensities and frequencies.
