Fetal heartbeat
I am 39 weeks. I went into labor and delivery today due to some very consistent contractions. My blood pressure was elevated when I got there and baby girls heart rate would shoot Up to 208.. after a couple hours my blood pressure went to normal and baby was still struggling with a high heart rate between 180-190. They kept me until her heart rate was in the 150’s for 10 minutes and sent me home, after hours of her heart rate being high, they only cared to have it in the 150’s for 10 minutes? Is this normal? Has someone had a baby with a high heart rate Like this and be perfectly healthy? I can’t sleep. I’m so worried.. I’m thinking of pulling out the fetal Doppler that I have all night. 😅
Update: her baseline is 155-157, has been this whole pregnancy. They said she wasn’t liking the contractions that’s why her heart rate shot up. I just still feel like they should of monitored it longer or induced me. I’m scheduled to be induced tomorrow anyway.
