When umbilical cord wrapping around the neck occurs during pregnancy, it generally does not affect the fetal limb movement. However, a decrease in amniotic fluid can affect the baby's movements. When amniotic fluid decreases, the baby has less room to move inside the uterus, thus causing reduced fetal movements.
It is recommended to regularly visit the hospital for prenatal check-ups. If a reduction in amniotic fluid occurs, it is important to promptly identify the reason and then proceed with appropriate treatment. Regular monitoring of fetal movement changes is advised, and fetal heart monitoring can be done to assess the safety of the fetus. Drinking more water to replenish amniotic fluid is also advisable.
