Labor Monitor

Just went for a labor monitor today. It’s basically a technique that uses electrodes and a bioamplifier to distinguish preterm labor from false labor, monitor contraction efficiency, and identify the urgency for a cesarean section. We got to hear the baby’s heartbeats during the scan that lasted an hour. At one point, we even got to hear the baby’s hiccups. Hahaha they’re so cute. Too bad I didn’t get to record the hiccups.
But here’s a clip of the heartbeats. (You’d have to turn your speakers volume up.)
