Is slow fetal development and slow heartbeat good?

Patient's question:

During pregnancy, it is always very uncomfortable, and morning sickness is also very severe. Is it good if the fetal development is slow and the heartbeat is slow?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, a normal fetal heartbeat is between 120-160 beats per minute. If it is too slow or too fast, it indicates that the fetus is experiencing oxygen deprivation in the uterus. In this case, sleeping in a left lateral position is beneficial for fetal development. Oxygen therapy can also be administered to improve the fetal oxygen supply. Regular prenatal check-ups should be conducted, and in case of any special circumstances, consult a doctor immediately for treatment.
