When I started my NSTs they told me that after 30 weeks, baby's HR drops to a more adult rhythm...so it's typically lower than usual and stays lower and continues to drop (unless excited) until delivery. I was concerned because she's usually 135-145 and can get to 127 if she's sleeping now. They said anything abone 120 is considered normal rhythm for a baby after 30 weeks.

Has been 140s steadily since 2nd try EXCEPT the day I went in after the glucose test. Her heartbeat was like 180 and she was bouncing off the walls. It really makes me wonder how healthy for baby that test is if you don't have diabetes and it gets metabolized as a sudden rush of sugar.

I've noticed that it dropped a bit but I also find that baby hasn't been as active before appointments so I've been chocking it up to that.

I picked SS because at my NST yesterday her HR stayed between 170-180 and they made me see if it would drop down some. I have been sent to L&D twice because of my NSTs not going well in the past 3 weeks. Thankfully this week I was able to not go to L&D.
