Ano ang BPS ultrasound?

Ito ang ultrasound na recommended para sa mga buntis na 28 weeks AOG at pataas. May mga high risk patients rin na 26 weeks palang for BPS ultrasound na. Ito ang ultrasound na magsasabi kung gaano ka-okay si baby.

Chinecheck dito ang apat na parameter para masabi na okay si baby...

1. Fetal breathing
2. Fetal tone
3. Fetal movement
4. Amniotic fluid index

Bawat parameter ay tig 2 ang score kaya ang perfect score ni baby ay 8/8 sa BPS ultrasound.

Ang complete BPS score is 10/10.

Saan manggagaling yung isa pang 2 points if apat lang na variable/parameter ang nakikita sa ultrasound?
.. sa Non Stress Test.

Ang NST kung reactive ay another score of 2 kaya magiging BPS 10/10. Ako, pag sinabing NST, oxgygenation lang ang iniisip ko. Kasi dito nakikita kung gaano ka-okay ang oxygen supply ni baby. Malalaman ito base sa kanyang heart rate pattern.

Sa susunod ididiscuss ko ng simple ang Non Stress Test.

Did you ever wonder how you look like through your baby's eyes?

1st month: mukha kang multo na black and white pero alam niya ang amoy mo

2nd month: pixelated version ka na pero black and white pa rin

3rd month: nagkakakulay ka na pero blurry ka pa rin

4th month: kitang kita ka na niya

Wag ka mag-alala, kahit ganyan ka sa paningin nya, alam nya na ikaw ang mama nya at nakikilala ka nya sa pamamagitan ng amoy at boses mo.
