Patient's question:
During pregnancy, it's always particularly uncomfortable, and morning sickness is also very severe. Is the fetal heart rate likely to drop during a normal delivery?Doctor's answer:
Hello, this fetal heart rate is very normal, indicating that the fetus is safe inside the uterus. The normal fetal heart rate is 120-160 beats per minute. It is recommended not to worry about any unexpected events during delivery, as the heart rate will not decrease. Based on the situation you described, a normal delivery should be less painful, as it is like the fruit ripening and falling off naturally—the birth canal is already open, and the cervix is fully dilated. The nature of the pain from induced labor and normal delivery is similar, with only the intensity being different. I hope my answer satisfies you. Wishing you a pleasant mood!
