Fetal Monitors

liambsden asked:


Let the fetus have its say regarding sex during pregnancy and in particular the fetal response to uterine orgasm. The contractions of delivery during birth cut off the blood supply and would suffocate the fetus if not spaced out. Uterine orgasm during pregnancy can last up to 30 minutes. The same physiology must exist as during birth with the cappillaries at the uterine-placental junction being clamped shut by the contracting uterine muscles. It is obvious the fetus survives,but what if repeated breath holding contests inutero lead to asthma etc. What if the reduced flow of cord blood leads to toxemia and anoxia as in a drowning victim? 5000 fetuses are aborted daily in America. If we can justify intruding on the fetal space with abortion, I pray the time has come that some brave researchers will use the high-tech fetal monitoring tests to let the fetus have its say. What are we so terrified of learning? Sex during pregnancy is such a common human experience, fear not I AM

Do you like it? I cant seem to hear anything with it. I can hear my own heartbeat, but not the babies. Any thuds I hear are from moving the monitor. I can hear an ocassional kick. Besides that it seems to be a waste of money.

I am 21 weeks and really want to buy or rent my own fetal monitor. They are pretty expensive- to get the one like they have at the office. The cheap ones at stores like walmart or target have bad ratings so i dont even want to try that. Has anyone rented or bought one to just have during your pregnancy? I personally feel that having one will make me feel better when she still doesnt have definite movements and that i can check on my baby before i go to my appointments. Im on bedrest and to me it would make me feel better.
