Twins fight in the belly?
Doctor bluntly said "there are many stutters and no mouths"
"You might as well imagine what it feels like if we want to move in the swimming pool." In response to the video of twins fighting in their stomachs on Weibo, the health blogger named "Doctor Chen of Obstetrics and Gynecology" posted a post.

In the view of "Doctor Chen from Obstetrics and Gynecology", the fight between twins in their stomachs is a false proposition. She said that the fetus does not control their hands and feet well. Their hands and legs that they make in the uterus are unconscious behaviors, not fighting. The fetus' hands and feet are not as strong as adults, and they also have amniotic fluid and as buffer. She said, "When they move their hands and feet, they actually cannot cause substantial harm to the other party."
The health blogger named "Dr. Xu Chao" on Weibo also used "many slots and no mouths" to describe this news on Weibo. He said that the movements of the twins in the uterus are basically unconscious. They are not fighting with their hands and feet. Moreover, they are buffered by amniotic fluid through amniotic sac , and will hardly cause "harm" to the other party.
He also mentioned that the twin images in the video are from the Internet and are similar to the videos he has shared. As for the fetal movement video taken, it is impossible to determine whether it comes from the uploader himself.
