I have to do those tests twice a week up until he's born it was due to her thinking that he was small at 35 weeks and so I had to have an anatomy scan and come in for that test twice a week. she said just his weight is small and at 36 weeks he was weighing 5.5 pounds but due to those tests he's shown that he is super active and healthy getting perfect scores on his heart rate and movement. so try not to worry to much your baby might be the same way :) plus it really helped me to relax getting to hear his heartbeat and know he's ok. good luck mama!
thank you! that's so reassuring. he just hasn't been moving in the last 2 days. I've heard the heart beat so I know he's still alive but it's so weird not feeling anything at all. so I'm guessing they jsut want to monitor his heart beat to make sure it's not dropping or anything @aylenrose
I'm glad I could help! @jsco I'm a ftm to so I panic a lot because I just want to know he's ok. so its normal to feel that way :) what they do is they strap 2 monitors around your stomach one for the heartbeat and the other to see if you having any contractions or anything. after that they will give you a button you press whenever you feel any movement no matter how big or small as long as its not hiccups lol. you will sit there and do that for 20 minutes and a sheet will come out showing his heart rate etc they just want to make sure his heartbeat rises with movement and lowers at resting. make sure to have something to eat before going and some cold water or something with sugar. I'm sorry if I go on to much I just feel more relaxed knowing what's going to happen and how it works. sorry if I ramble!
no its totally ok! hah I have no idea what to expect, so it's nice being told what's going to happen lol. I know I'm probably overreacting but i have been my whole pregnancy hah mainly just because I have no idea what to expect in a "normal pregnancy" @aylenrose
same here I worry way to much but i can't help it. when I feel anything slightly different in like is that normal is he ok is something wrong did I do something wrong. lol we just really care about our baby's well being haha :) @jsco
right! hah I'm trying not to worry about every little thing but it gets hard when something is so totally different than it was the day before. @aylenrose
