Pregnant after 35

Stress test??

Who has had a stress test? How did you do? Not sure of the ins and outs.

Re: Stress test??

  • I had one done at 38 weeks. They put straps around your belly to monitor baby's heart rate and give you a thing to hold in your hand, and you are supposed to push a button every time you feel baby move. I think it was for about 30 minutes. They are just checking to make sure baby's HB and movement is normal.

  • I've had non stress tests. They're actually relaxing. The monitor vitals and do an ulta sound checking on fluids and baby. It's actually nice.

  • I'm sure that when I go in there I'll be all stressed. I have serious white coat syndrome and I suffer from panic disorders. Thought I had it under control.
  • Dezigned - I was left alone for mine, which helped.  It was pretty relaxing.  30 minutes of listening to baby.

  • Everything turned out great with the baby. She's getting oxygen to the brain and heart rate is awesome.
