How long does it take to detect the fetal heart rate?

Women can be said to be very happy during pregnancy, because during this period, women can not only receive unprecedented preferential treatment, but also experience the joy of pregnancy, because pregnancy is a very sacred thing. The most important check during pregnancy is to monitor the fetal heart rate at all times, because the fetal heart rate is the most critical part of the fetus. So how long after pregnancy can the fetal heart rate be detected?

Once pregnancy is confirmed in a regular hospital, the first thing to check is whether there is a fetal heartbeat. Fetal heart rate is a very meaningful indicator of whether the baby is alive in the womb. Therefore, pregnant mothers must go to a regular hospital for a series of prenatal examinations. Only in this way can you understand the true situation of your baby to the greatest extent.

How long does it take to detect fetal heart rate during pregnancy?

1. For normal intrauterine pregnancy, B-ultrasound examination can clearly show the embryo and fetal heartbeat in the uterus 42 days after menstruation.

2. For some women with irregular menstrual cycles, late ovulation, or late implantation of the fertilized egg, the appearance of the embryo in the uterus and the time of fetal heart tube pulsation will be relatively delayed, but it will not exceed 49 days after the amenorrhea, and no later than 56 days.

Generally speaking, when is the best time to start fetal heart rate monitoring for the fetus and mother?

1. Generally speaking, self-monitoring is not allowed before 15 weeks of pregnancy.

2. Pregnant women who are between 15 and 28 weeks pregnant can start monitoring their fetal heart rate at home. It is safe to measure it three times a day for one minute each time.

3. For pregnant women after 28 weeks of pregnancy, the fetus is fully differentiated and the time and frequency of monitoring can be extended.

4. For high-risk pregnant women after 35 weeks of pregnancy (for example, pregnant women with gestational hypertension, hyperthyroidism, etc.), they should be hospitalized and continuously monitor the fetal heart rate with a fetal heart rate monitor. If necessary, continuous monitoring can be carried out for a long time (more than 1 hour).

The fetal heart rate can usually be measured shortly after the pregnancy is confirmed. At this time, you need to go to the hospital to consult a relevant professional doctor, and then know the relevant fetal heart information to accurately understand the baby's specific situation. When the fetal heart rate does not exist or is abnormal, do not be anxious or nervous. Follow the doctor's advice and cooperate with the examination.
