I totally agree! I get them twice a week now. With DD I had them twice a day for 10 weeks while I was on hospital bedrest. I dreaded being put on the monitor because she ALWAYS failed! The would send me from antepartum to L&D for further monitoring all the time. It sucked.
I totally agree!!! They should call them mama stress tests!!
I have been going for NST's bi-weekly now for 4 weeks!
Tuesday due to NST I was put in the hospital for overnight fetal monitoring and the baby was fine.
I've been sent up to L&D 2 times already after the doctors NST.
I had another NST today. I was so stressed and nervous all night. LO passed today and was good. I go again on Tuesday. Tuesdays are usually the day she seems to not do well in the doctors office.
Thank goodness I am 37 weeks tomorrow and if need be I can have the baby already. I have 2 more weeks worth of these tests if she doesn't come on her own.
My first one stressed me out cause he was almost not passing... they had me sit in the office 10 more minutes and he finally passed so I didn't have to go up to L&D... every since though he's been fine. Fingers crossed for my NST & U/S today!
