Can the baby have a seizure in womb?

Yes, a baby can have a seizure in the womb. This is known as fetal seizures or in utero seizures. Fetal seizures are rare, occurring in about 1 in 1,000 pregnancies. They are more common in babies with certain medical conditions, such as brain abnormalities, genetic disorders, and infections.

Fetal seizures can cause a variety of symptoms, including:

* Abnormal fetal movements

* Changes in the baby's heart rate

* Seizures in the newborn baby

If you are pregnant and you are concerned that your baby may be having seizures, it is important to see your doctor right away. Your doctor will be able to evaluate your baby and determine if there is a problem.

Treatment for fetal seizures depends on the underlying cause. Treatment may include hospitalization, medication, and monitoring the baby's condition. Most babies who have fetal seizures go on to develop normally.
