If fetal movements become unusually rapid or slow, it is recommended to visit the hospital for fetal heart rate monitoring to determine whether the fetus is experiencing hypoxia. Routine prenatal checkups should be attended on schedule. Avoid strenuous physical activity, ensure adequate rest, and maintain a nutritious diet—especially foods rich in protein, such as milk, eggs, and lean meat—to enhance maternal immunity.
