Answer»

"Correct Answer - Option 4 : 14 & 18

CONCEPT:

  • Fetal movement refers to the motion of a fetus caused by its own muscle activity.
  • Fetal movements are the kicks, rolls, and hiccups of your unborn baby. Fetal movements show that your unborn baby is getting the oxygen and nutrients he needs before birth.  

 

EXPLANATION:  

  • Women who have already given birth have more relaxed uterine muscles that are consequently more sensitive to fetal motion, and for them, fetal motion can sometimes be felt as early as 14 weeks. By about week 21, the fetus begins to develop a regular schedule of movement.
  • The movements grow stronger and more frequent as your baby grows.
