What to expect during a non stress test? Never had one done before, but my doctor scheduled me for one today without me knowing.
Bring something to do! They’ll hook you up to monitor for contraction and baby’s heart rate. I make sure my phone is charged and play games!
I got monitored in a machine to see if baby is moving and had to do at least 10 movements. Got an ultrasound and baby had to “breath” 5 times before I wS done.
@ejwsmomma120215, I was there a couple hours. But I got mine done for lack of movement.
@ejwsmomma120215, it takes a while for baby for breathe 5 times also.
@lakota-winyan my little man is just too comfy and doesn't want to come. For a week straight I stayed at 3cm and 50%, but with off and on contractions. So they think I'll need induced to get him moving since nothing at home is helping.
Hook you up to a machine and after I had a little one I had wear. Like a clip on something for a week because of being high risk with my first.
