Babys Heartbeat

I had my drs appointment yesterday, I am
37 weeks as of today..
He did all the usual stuff, he hasnt
checked to see if im dialated yet.. But
usually he finds the babys heartbeat right
away.. This time it took a while.. And
usually the babys heart beat is 160
sumthing.. And this time is was only
140.. Why is that? He didnt seem
concerned so I know its nothing.. But it
freaked me out at first when he wasnt
finding it cuz he usuaully does pretty
fast

I don't know about the rate, but my baby's
heartbeat has been weird (not bad, just
hard to find).
The first time, it was right there, right
away, and really loud. The second and
third time, they searched forever for it.
The second and third time, they heard it
and said it sounded fine (bf and I heard
it, too, faintly and for a few seconds),
but we just couldn't get the lil man to
stop squirming so we could get a good
sound. Lol

It doesn't mean much neeko, heartrates
fluctuate whether they are awake or
sleeping and the time is nearing so he's
not gonna come out with a 160 heartrate!
Lol

Mine did the same thing!! I think I
posted it on another thread!! Her
hearbeat is usually in the high 160's but
when I went it was 145. The .Dr said it
was because she doesn't have any more room
to flip and be as active so the heartrate
goes down a little.
Totally normal!! I freaked when I saw the
doppler and the numbers were lower...But
it's all good girl!!

Yeah you will notice the babys heart beat
getting slower as you get closer to your
due date...Jace went from 170..And then
the day I went into labor it was 110..Dont
worry nothing is wrong!!...

The heart rate will probably go down
overall some as you get closer to birth.
Two reasons, the baby is growing, and the
bigger the body, the slower the heart rate
naturally is, and the baby is growing and
can't move around and be as active
anymore.
It's also perfectly normal that it might
be more of a challenge to find the heart
beat-if the baby got into a position where
the heart was closer to your backbone, for
example, it might take a little looking.
Your doctor probably pointed the
ultrasound at the place that it's been
usually-but if baby moved, it might just
take some time to find.
140's is a very normal number if you are
close to term.
Blessings,
fiora

Heyyyy .Neeko! I know we have a lot in
common!! Maybe we'll have our angels on
the same day!
When I went to the .Dr yesterday, the
heartrate was again in the 140's. I told
the technician(who was a diff. Girl) that
it used to be in the 160's and she was
like ohhh, the baby just has no more room.
Then my belly started to shift before she
could wipe the jelly off and she was like
oh man, she's really active huh? I was
like yea, my ribs aren't to fond of her
right now!!
She doesn't move as much during the day
anymore, but at nightime, she's ready to
tumble!!!

Belly

Lol...I catch my .Fiance staring at it in
disbelief. Then it shifts and I gasp
because it literally feels like her foot
or whatever is about to break through the
skin!!!!
I trip out when I see those baby shows and
they babies come out and look sooo
huge...I know they're folded in half in
there, but geeez, it's hard to believe
that all of that is in my belly!!

i think the same thing. Like; "my
goodness! All of that is inside of me!?!"
he knocked my popcorn off of my stomach
and onto the couch the other day. I
couldn't believe he did that. I thought
he might be able to lift it a teeny bit
but he actually knocked it clear off.
:shock:

I've learned my lesson with putting things
on my belly!!! I spill everything because
i'm not expecting him to move for a second
while I change the channel!!! Oooook, try
again!!
I can't wait to see her...I'll be happy
with just seeing her on an ultrasound
again!! My next appt isn't until next
wednesday. My car's in the shop and I
gotta hitch a ride so I can't go on
monday. I hope I can make it till then!!
She may have other plans of her own!!

So, tomorrow will be my 20-week mark (god,
time has flown...) I am 99.9% sure that on
two occasions, while laying down to sleep,
I felt the baby move. Other than that, I
haven't really felt much. But today and
yesterday i've felt kind of... Wierd.
It's almost like having an upset tummy but
not because I don't feel nauseous. Like
there's a lot of pressure from the inside,
but it's not gas. Lol. Is that him
squirming around in there? Cause I know
he moves a ton... The last two visits,
they couldn't get him to hold still to
keep up with his heartbeat. This is right
about the time people usually start
feeling movement, right? I'm just
terrified that I won't feel him and will
just wonder if he's ok in there. Lol

Unless i'm thinking of someone else, she
doesn't know. They've told her both, but
she's prepared for a girl, so that's what
everyone's hoping for. Lol
