Pregnant. at 20 week scan baby wasnt swallowing fluid so rescheduled for another in 2 weeks. are babies always swallowing fluid or now and then?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Swallowing is needed: By the second trimester, your baby should be swallowing on a regular basis. The baby will also start to urinate and make the first stool meconium. The follow up ultrasound may be able to determine the cause if your baby continues to have difficulty swallowing.
