Today I had my first Nonstress test done. Since we are having twins this is standard practice at my doctors office. Basically I just go in and get hooked up to the monitor one sensor for each baby and one for me to see if I have any contractions. From now until the babies are born I will have this done twice a week.
It was very simply and pretty neat to get to hear the babies heart beats for 20 minutes straight. I was also surprised to learn that rather than a smooth constant heart rate, what they are looking for is a few strong accelerations - both babies passed today. Good work!
