Non-Stress Test

Cait

Hi ladies! Anyone else have experience with these? I have to start having them every two weeks because of my gestational diabetes, so I’ll have my first one at 33 weeks. The doctor told me basically they watch for change in heart rate, change is good, but a flat heart rate is not. What does that indicate if it doesn’t fluctuate? I’m nervous there’s going to be some sort of problem! During my ultrasound today baby was 135 and at appointment with doctor baby was 147, so moving to some degree. No clue what’s normal or not, but I feel like the last few appointments I’ve gone to the heart rate was around the upper 140’s - 150’s. Just want to be prepared!
