Monitoring Your Babys Well-Being
Due to special situations, your provider may decide to order a non-stress test (NST). An NST monitors a baby's health by showing his/her baseline heart rate and also any increases in the heart rate due to movement. Just as your heart rate goes up after movement, your baby's heart rate also increases when he/she moves around in the uterus. Read "Non-stress Test: Monitoring Your Babys Well-Being" to learn more.
