Patient's question:
Due date is November 3rd, last menstrual period was January 26th, it seems to be six days past the due date, but there are still no signs of labor starting. Everyone at home is frantic. Tonight, I had an ultrasound, and the amniotic fluid is low, with one loop around the neck. Also, the baby's heartbeat has always been over 140, but recently, when I measured my own heartbeat, it was over 130. Could this be interference from placental aging? Is this chronic asphyxiation? What should I do? SOS...Doctor's answer:
Dear Consultee,According to your description and the examination report, the fetus is larger than normal, weighing approximately eight pounds. The placental function is normal, but the amniotic fluid is slightly low. It is recommended that you drink more water, adding a little salt to it. Drink about 1000ml each time, twice a day. Pay attention to any changes in fetal movement. If there is still no movement after four more days, you should go to the hospital for a follow-up visit. Wishing you health and happiness every day.
