POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy3 years agoA. The baby starts moving after five months of conception; the term for the foetal movement is called quickening. A six-month-old foetus responds to sound through movement. After seven months, the foetus responds to stimuli such as sound, pain and light. By the end of eight-month, the baby starts kicking more frequently. But by the end of nine-month, the movement becomes less due to less space.Your doctor will perform an ultrasound to track the growth of your baby’s health and development. Generally, a foetus grows by two inches every month. So, by the seventh month, your baby should be 14 inches long. By the end of nine-month, a foetus weighs around 3 kilos and 18-20 inches long.The heart of the baby starts to beat around the fifth week of pregnancy. To confirm the heartbeat of your baby, the doctor may conduct a non-stress test. The test monitors the heart rate of the baby and provides information about the potential threat, if any. A healthy heartbeat is between 110 to 160 per minute.During the nine-month, the movement becomes minimal due to less space. A healthy baby takes a head-first position and starts moving towards the birth canal.
