Thanks girls for your comments but yea I think they do towards the end of the pregnancy to check on the baby. I just had my babyshower yesterday and am so happy cause I.got lots of clothes and other things I needed for my baby so im feeling better just incase he does come early. I had been stressing and dealing with other things and that is why I hadnt replied.
I think it's routine at some point in pregnancy. I had it done a couple times with my 1st baby and now with this one. I'm not high risk. Also, everyone I've talked to with children have had one at some point so I guess they should be pretty routine :)
Sooo deanna said... do they do this for every pregnancy??
My doctor ordered one last week at 28weeks beggar the baby was a little less active that day and i've been getting a lot of Braxton Hicks contractions. I wouldn't worry too much, they're probably just making sure everything its going smoothly
Ill be 32 weeks tomorrow and I've been going to my doc every 2 weeks for a while now. I think just bcuz you are getting closer to the due date they want to keep a closer eye on you...I know my doc will eventually have me in once a week.
Well my appointment came out ok. But I have to go in twice a week from now on untill delivery. Which means double the appointments. They did scare me a bit cause after the nst I had to get a us and that came out ok. So im glad.
Do they do stress tests for all pregnancies?!
I will thanks. Im just a little worried.
good luck for tomorrow. let us know how you get on xx
