I have 2x weekly NST. They strap 2 sensors around your belly you sit back drink ice water and play cell phone games for 20 min to an hour . If baby doesn't cooperate you eat a snack...if baby still doesn't cooperate they gently give a quick vibration to your tummy (much like your cell on vibrate). One sensor measures baby's heart rate and the other for contractions. You really do nothing but relax...

I get them twice a week with my twins, they are very low key. You just sit there with a baby heart rate monitor and a contraction monitor on your belly and they also keep track of your blood pressure

I get them twice a week, one at the hospital where I’ll be giving birth and the other at the hospital where my specialist is. Mine is due to Polyhydramnios. They’re not bad at all, usually 30mins to an hour tops. I also get an ultrasound after one of them each week. You just get hooked up to a monitor to listen to baby’s heartbeat and check to see if you’re having contractions or not and if you are see how baby’s heartbeat reacts to them. Definitely puts my mind more at ease.

They aren't scary. I get them twice a week due to GD and all they do is hook you too the monitor for 20 mins to make sure baby is ok. Sometimes they hook to ultrasound to measure the fluid. It's good they do them so you know baby is ok.
