Fetal breathing movements
Fetal breathing movements (FBM) are episodic rhythmic contractions of the diaphragm and other muscles of respiration.
Fetal breathing may be noticed as early as 15 weeks of gestation. At 24 -28 weeks, the fetus breaths about 10-20% of the time, increasing to 30% at 30 weeks of pregnancy 1. Feta...
