Ok so I have sua. Which is where there is only one artery in my umbilical cord and my Dr said when I turn 32 weeks I have 2 b monitored once a week 4 an hr. Has anyone had 2 do this and if so what exactly do they do. Someone said it was stress test done on the baby but even if that is not really sure what that means.

I've had a non-stress test done during my pregnancy. It's really easy and a bit boring. You go in, they hook you up to this machine and monitor baby movements and their heartbeat after.
