[4] Quickening indicates the start of fetal movements, usually felt 14–26 weeks after conception, or between the fourth and sixth month.
Some sources contend that there is no voluntary movement until after birth. [3] Other sources say that purposive movement begins months earlier. [4] 3D ultrasound has been used to create motion pictures of fetal movement, which are called "4D ultrasound". [5]
