Patient's question:
I am already two and a half months pregnant. Recently, I have been experiencing nausea, vomiting, and fatigue. When I go to the hospital for fetal heart monitoring, they always can't find the fetal heartbeat. Why can't they always find the fetal heartbeat during the monitoring?Doctor's answer:
At 2 months of pregnancy, a ultrasound can detect fetal heartbeat. If the fetal heartbeat is not developed, it cannot be ruled out as a missed miscarriage. So, check if there is abdominal pain or spotting, and if there are nausea symptoms, it indicates early pregnancy reactions. Therefore, further follow-up is needed, and it is important not to have stress. Avoid strenuous activities in the first 3 months of pregnancy and pay attention to preserving the pregnancy. If the fetal heart monitoring does not respond, it means there will be no acceleration of fetal heartbeat during fetal movement, which indicates poor reserve function of the fetus.
