The baby in the womb is not only sleeping and waking up, but also engaging in various activities. So have you ever wondered what the baby will do in the womb? Let’s find out with us!
1 Sleeping
The majority of babies in the womb love to sleep. Even when their eyelids have not developed, they can spend 90-95% of their time each day sleeping. However, the duration of each of their slumbers is not very long, around 60 minutes.

2 “Rolling” in the mother’s womb
A fetus can start moving gently, “wriggling” in the mother’s womb from 8 weeks of age. Some babies even have their own special “rhythms” in their movements.
In the late stages of pregnancy, the fetus will have more powerful and continuous movements.
3 Sucking fingers
Many young children have the habit of sucking their fingers right in their mother’s wombs. Starting from week 30, it is now that the baby’s sense of touch is more developed and they start developing the habit of sucking their fingers, mainly their thumbs.
Sometimes babies will make movements as if playing with their own fingers, touching their own faces.

4 Hiccups
Hiccups in a fetus are not very common, but there’s nothing to worry about. It is quite normal for a fetus to have hiccups in the womb from 24 weeks of age.
For some babies, hiccups can be very quiet, so they are often mistaken for the baby’s heartbeat.

5 “Staring” all around the place
A fetus can start rolling their eyes from week 16, and this action becomes more frequent by week 26. Therefore, babies can sense and interact with light.

6 Listening to what’s happening
From the sixth month of pregnancy, the fetus’ sense of hearing becomes more developed and sensitive; therefore, when the baby hears sounds from outside, they will react. Some babies even show expressions of sadness, anger if their mothers are in a bad mood.
