Heart Beat Test of Fetus
Most parents wait for the moment when they can hear the heartbeat of their unborn child for the first time. For the mother, it is a
sign of reassurance that all is well in her pregnancy.
Every month the heart rate of the fetus changes. Even at birth, it
changes. That is why doctors keep checking that the heartbeat is not right. If
the heartbeat decreases, it is believed that the fetus is getting less oxygen.

The heart begins to form by the fourth week of pregnancy but
the heartbeat is heard only through an ultrasound examination. A child's heart
rate is almost double that of an adult rate. The heartbeat starts after about 6
weeks. It is initially 100 beats per minute and starts beating from 175 to 180
beats per minute for 9 weeks. When the fetus reaches full-term pregnancy, it
gradually decreases from about 150 to 160. When the baby's heartbeat is less
than 100 beats per minute in the first trimester, it can be a cause for
concern. The mother is monitored weekly with ultrasound and most of the time
pregnancy can lead to miscarriage if the heart rate does not increase. When
miscarriage occurs after the fetus's slow heart rate is detected, most of the
causes may be chromosomal abnormalities. In some cases, however, the heart rate
may be normal and pregnancy may continue normally.
It takes 18 to 20 weeks to hear the baby's heartbeat using a
fetoscope. Fetal heart rate changes during different stages of pregnancy and
various activities like sleeping, movements, etc. - your heart rate also
changes as you exercise or when you are stressed. The fetal heart rate usually
slows during the last few weeks of pregnancy.
Thus fetal heart rate monitoring is a good tool to monitor
the welfare of the child. Diagnostic
