Pregnant mothers generally start fetal heart rate monitoring from the 32nd week of pregnancy. Pregnant mothers with comorbidities start from the 28th to 30th week of pregnancy. Some hospitals start from the 36th week of pregnancy. , no matter which week you start, fetal heart rate monitoring is so important. What is fetal heart rate monitoring?

Fetal heart rate monitoring is the abbreviation of fetal heart rate and fetal movement uterine contraction chart. Fetal heart rate monitoring uses an electronic fetal heart rate monitor to record the fetal heart rate curve and uterine contraction pressure waveform, and evaluates the fetal movement in the uterus based on the graphics. The intrauterine condition is the most direct way to check whether the fetus has intrauterine hypoxia.

When pregnant mothers do fetal monitoring, they put two probes on the abdomen to monitor the fetal heart rate, fetal movement, and uterine contractions, which usually last 20 minutes. After completion, they will be scored, 8--10 A score of 5-7 means that the fetus is in good condition in the womb, a score of 5-7 means that it is suspicious, and a score of 4 or less means that the fetus is hypoxic. If the fetal monitor fails three times a day, what does it mean?

1. Fetal hypoxia. If the fetus is hypoxic, the fetal heart rate and fetal movement will be abnormal, and fetal abuse will certainly not pass. The normal fetal heart rate is 120 to 160 beats per minute. If the fetal heart rate is not within this range, it means fetal hypoxia. Normal fetal movement is no less than 3-5 times per hour. Too much or too little fetal movement is a sign of hypoxia.

2. The fetus is sleeping. If the fetus is sleeping, the fetal heart rate will be low, the fetal movement will be reduced, and the fetal monitoring will fail.

3. Pregnant mother's problems, pregnant mother's emotional instability, or illness and medication, etc. affect the results of fetal monitoring. What should I do if the fetal monitor fails?

If the fetal monitoring fails, the doctor will ask the pregnant woman to change positions (lying on the left side) and repeat the fetal monitoring or extend the fetal monitoring time. If the fetal monitoring still fails, the pregnant mother will need to take oxygen. After inhaling oxygen, do a fetal monitor. If the fetal monitor passes the test, you can go home.

3. Wake up the baby. Sometimes the baby falls asleep during fetal monitoring. At this time, the pregnant mother should wake him up and pat his belly gently to wake up the baby.

4. Pregnant mothers should not fall asleep. Pregnant mothers can lie on their left side and talk to the fetus. While preventing the fetus from sleeping, they should not fall asleep themselves, lest the fetus will fall asleep too. , affecting the results of fetal monitoring.

The lazy mother often looked at her cell phone during fetal monitoring. She was criticized several times by the nurse sister for this, so she was not allowed to play with her mobile phone during fetal monitoring.
