Fetal Monitors

momie_2bee asked:

I’m 23 weeks and the baby isn’t as active as he was 2 weeks ago, I feel him move maybe 3-4 times a day at the most, i have a fetal heart monitor I rented from babybeat.com and the baby’s heatr rate is always good around 150 bpm. My doc says as long as the heart rate is good then movement isn’t that important, I was wondering if anyone else went thru this at almost 6 months, I lost a baby at 20 weeks due to an umbilical cord accident so I worry about the movement, I already know to drink something sweet or cold but it doesn’t really work, any advice would be great, thanks

I am 18.5 weeks pregnant and I have a fetal heart monitor at home. I can hear the fetal blood flow but I am not sure if I can hear the heartbeat. If there is good fetal blood flow does that mean the baby is perfectly fine? or should i keep looking around for the heartbeat. I could be crazy and be hearing the heartbeat its just so hard to tell so I wanted to know if the blood flow was good enough to hear.
