Just curious and kind of worried

I was up up mau last night and when monitoring baby I was watching the screen constantly as I was so scared. Bubba was fine but I noticed a couple of times the heartbeat went down to like 80 then went back up …. Could this just be a case of baby moving away from the monitors 31+5

I’ve had this on the monitor! Heart rate drops then goes up, as long as baby meets criteria on the machine then nothing to worry about! This is why it reads over a period of time x

did yours drop that low ? X and yes she met all criteria but it’s still so scary isn’t it ! And it Happened when they weren’t watching and I forgot to mention but it’s just a case of trusting they know what they r on about x

I got told that’s when baby moved and it was monitoring my heart rate not babies; I panicked exactly the same as you. X

Yeah I had some at about 70/80 and I did the same thing and panicked but when I asked they said it’s normal and nothing to worry about! X

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!
