freaking out

[aw_panda]

Yesterday i went to the doctors and they did a nonstress test (which ive never had done with my previous three pregnancies)  and he wasnt cooperating so we had an ultrasound too. They said they were measuring his biophysical profile.  He only scored 6/8 so we have to have it done again today. Im freaking out what does this mean? Why have it again? Also they are telling me that im going to have the nonstress test done weekly from here on. Why?????

I agree with the other ladies. Don't freak out over it. I go twice a week for a non-stess test. And it's because my baby is measuring big and because my last pregnancy had complications. There are so many reasons why they do them. Just because he didn't cooperate the one time doesn't mean that it's something that'll happen again.

Don't freak out. I have non stress tests twice a week because my baby girl is measuring small even though she is healthy. Its just precaution. Keep your head up mama :)

Many reason just drink apple juice just before the test there looking for his heart to spike over the green line which indicates your baby is healthy and can manage labor I had to get mine every 1 week at 36 til my due date which is in 3 days
