Heart Rate

I'm 34 weeks and the last 4 times I have been for an appointment my boys heart rate has been up and iv been sent to the hospital for a trace which thank goodness is fine. If it keeps happening will they end up inducing me? Has anyone else had the same? I can't help but worry and I know that isn't helping justwant him hhere x

Im two days shy of 34weeks. The docs aren't sure what's causing it. The placenta is fine and the cord. My fluid levels are within normal range. She also barely moves. Im lucky to feel 5movements a day. They said they are going to monitor her closely and if she stops growing or fails 2 biophysical profile scans in a row that they will take her early. Im up in the air but i know i won't make it to my due date which is Dec 19. My goal is to make it to thanksgiving cuz ill be 37weeks then.

I go twice a week fo nsts and a fluid check because of low fluid and they told me the same thing. Mr dr said if it keeps going this way they will induce me so id guess it would be the same for u unless higher fluids is less dangerous. I have been to labor and delivery 4 times in the past week cause i felt decreased movement but shes still in there!

My daughter is doing the same thing. Except her heart rate fluctuates between 82 and 188. I get nst twice a week and weekly ultrasounds.

That is really high and at this point if they are keeping a close eye on you and it stays like that consistently they might induce you soon its still a lil early but if it stays like that i would think they would induce u around 37 weeks. They will only let a problem like that go on for so long i dont think it would be safe if they made u wait 6 more weeks
