Feeling scared

[Jazminnewmommy]

I'm at my doctors appointment and rite now I'm on the monitor to monitor my babies activities. The first time they put on on today he was extremely active. Then my doctor came and did an ultrasound and she put me back on the monitor because she said his heart rate is not normal to what she's used to when I usually come. I'm so scared n I'm not the panicky type but I'm a first time mom so I'm thinking all kinds of things. His due date was April second. And I'm worried abt him like he ran out of room to move around idk what my baby is feeling and then she tells me his heart rate is not like it usually be. I just want him out I don't feel comfortable at all.

you're right where you need to be,  Jazmin.  If the baby's heart rate was below normal,  that usually means he's not getting optimal oxygen,  which happens often if you go over your due date,  and is cause for them to go ahead and induce or do a c-section.

Your baby has a heart rate.  He'll be fine,  and he's ready to be born.

Best wishes.
