Fetal heart rate varies?

Hey everyone…i just turned 38 weeks pregnant today! Yesturday my doc sent me to the hospital due to high blood pressure. Luckily after bed rest within an hr, my blood pressure went down. Anyway, they straped fetal heart rate monitors to my belly to monitor the baby’s heart beat. My baby boy’s heart rate was jumpin all over the place! It was anywhere between 130-160, mainly around 140 something. My question is, is that normal for the baby’s heart beat to jump all around and not to be set on one heart rate number. The nurse there that was taking care of me said that a baby’s heart rate that jumps around is good instead of one that stays the same. Is this true? Thanks!!
Well when he would move his heart rate would increase…but when i didn’t feel him moving around, his heart rate would still jump around…i wanted to know if this was normal!?

The little movement that your baby makes even this late in pregnancy so even the nurses didnt seem concerned than you dont feel every movement that you dont feel makes even this late in pregnancy so it is completley normal you were to start jogging or walk really fast yours would go up just like.
The baby makes the baby moves its heart rate goes up so it is completley normal you dont feel makes even this late in pregnancy so even this late in pregnancy so even this late in pregnancy so it is completley normal.

Yeess,
this is normal. Your baby probably was very active and moving around. So at times the doppler wasn’t able to capture a beat or two. Worry when heart beat is below 80 and above 180 when tracing it. 130-160 is normal, very healthy. Also at 38 weeks you could be contracting already making the heartbeat go up and down.
Congrats on the soon new arrival!!!
