โœฆ Synopsis

In order to test the effects of maternal exercise in late gestation on fetal biophysical activities as measured by fetal breathing, shoulder movement, and kick response, these parameters were monitored by ultrasound in ten healthy pregnant women at 35 weeks of gestation before and after 20 minutes of aerobic dance and before and after 20 minutes of rest. A randomized crossover design between exercise (sequence A) and rest (sequence B) that used each pregnant woman as her own control was used in this study. Cumulative means for each fetal activity were compared. Results indicated a significant decrease in fetal breathing after maternal exercise and no significant change in shoulder movements or kick response.

Fetal movement changes the size and location of amniotic fluid pockets during measurement of the amniotic fluid index. In singleton gestations, the effect of redistributing the fixed intrauterine fluid volume on the amniotic fluid index is clinically insignificant. In this study, we tested the hypot
