Common Questions and Answers about Stress test on baby

stress-test

Avatar n tn No. Nothing going on any different than it has been. I may have possibly misunderstood. Maybe it's a stress test on the baby. But still - there are no problems. I can't understand what the need would be for any of that.
Avatar f tn There is a non stress test AND a stress test.... There are different reasons for both. During a non stress test they hook you up to a monitor and just keep an eye on baby's movements and heart rate... During a stress test they hook you up to a monitor but they induce contractions to see how baby reacts.
Avatar f tn A stress test or a non stress test? Because they are different a non stress test is just a monitor that they put on you to measure the babies movements. A stress test actually induced contractions and is used to see how baby reacts, like if there is movement or if there is a drop in heart rate.

Avatar f tn Anyone know?
Avatar f tn Has anyone had 2 do this and if so what exactly do they do. Someone said it was stress test done on the baby but even if that is not really sure what that means.
Avatar f tn No problem. When I first heard stress test, I thought I was going to have to run on a treadmill or something. Lol but that's all I had to do. Did they give you a reason why or was there something going on for them to want a nst?

Avatar n tn Has anyone had to a stress test type of thing?
Avatar f tn I just turned 37 weeks today and I've had 3 done already...and I will continue to have one until I deliver the baby (my dr. procedure for all clients)....it's really nothing to worry about.....it's just a test to check on the baby movement and heart rate to make sure he or she is not stressed....
Avatar f tn In a low risk pregnancy a non stress test or stress test would only be warranted if their was a concern. However diabetics (both gestational and non) have a higher rate of stillborn babies (still rare, but better to be safe) so its common practice to keep a closer eye as the pregnancy nears the end.
Avatar f tn Found out today I have to do stress test every werk cus mi baby is a lil small I believe it's due to mi blood pressure any body else experience this or similar I ain't tryin to b at the doc so much,smh
7136384 tn?1390142888 Stress test or non-stress test? During a NST they just hook you up to a monitor to keep track of baby's movements and heart rate. During a stress test they actually stimulate contractions and monitor baby's response to those contractions.
Avatar f tn My doc said ill be getting a stress test at 32w which is 3w so what do u do for a stress test?
4983320 tn?1378402268 The one at the hospital picked it up based on heartbeat but the one at my doctors office had me press a button every time I felt baby move. It depends on how long doctor wants you on it.
Avatar f tn I keep reading this term, I feel a lil silly asking because I'm on my 5th baby but I have no idea what that is. Never even heard of it till a few weeks ago. My friend has to take it. What the heck is it for?
Avatar f tn No. NST's are normal at this point. They just want to make sure they baby isn't having any issues. With my first I went 5 days passed due and had NSTs weekly from 38 weeks on. With #2 same thing only they didn't like what they saw the day before the due date and induced labor due to erratic fetal heart beat. She was and is totally fine and healthy though.
Avatar n tn Nope non stress test are easy. They just want to monitor your baby more closely! They usually put you on a monitor and listen to baby's heart beat while you relax in a recliner! You will be fine and so will baby.
Avatar f tn I got a call from the specialist ive been seeing for my high risk pregnancy saying that my other doctor scheduled a none stress test for me for tomorrow Im a little scared what might happen cause you usually get those atleast 3-4 weeks before your due date I still have 7 weeks. Since the beginning of this pregnancy I had a feeling that this baby was going to come early but not this early I will see what happens I might end up having a may or early june baby.
Avatar f tn Has anybody else been sent for a non stress test ? I go tommrow my blood pressure was a Lil high this week and runs in my family so iam getting sent for this test iam a Lil nervous about it.
Avatar f tn s digestive system might not be working since we produced fluid every day n the baby is supposed to be swollowing fluid that would keep it at abt the same amt but if too high means that the baby is not swollowing. So they have to keep an eye on the baby n how he is responding. But there is also a chance that u just have too much fluid. Either way they rather monitor the baby to make sure. So it might be nothing.
Avatar f tn Thanks ladies I had been in the hospital since Monday. I was released today they did the test cause baby heart rate was dropping every time I had an occasional contraction but she passed the test and I came home other wise they were going to deliver her.
Avatar n tn What is a non stress test Nd what do they do I have two before I am induced
