I'm 22 weeks pregnant and just got my anomaly scan done today. I'm a bit worried about whether everything looks normal. Is a fetal heart rate of 159 bpm okay or is it on the higher side?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Based on typical fetal development, at 22 weeks, normal parameters include a fetal heart rate between 110-160 bpm, so 159 bpm is within the normal range

View allI've been working out 5 days a week, mixing between light and hard exercises, but I've noticed that I bleed vaginally every single time. It's been happening more often in the past 2 months and I've been in this routine for 6 years. I'm really confused because I'm a virgin, so it can't be anything sexual, and my periods are regular. Plus, I've never used birth control. What's going on?
It's concerning that you're experiencing vaginal bleeding during every workout, especially if it's been happening more frequently. This could be related to hormonal imbalances, stress, or even physical strain. I strongly recommend consulting a gynecologist to rule out any underlying conditions and get a proper diagnosis.

I'm 34 now and will be 35 when I give birth. I just had my 20-week anomaly scan and two soft markers showed up: Echogenic Intracardiac Focus and Bilateral Renal Pelvis measuring 4.1mm and 3.5mm. I went for a fetal echo and thankfully they didnt find any other issues. I also did the NIPT and it came back low risk. Im kinda worried and want to understand more about the Bilateral Renal Pelvis. Is there anything else I should be doing or keeping an eye on?
Echogenic Intracardiac Focus (EIF): Likely a benign finding, not a concern especially with the normal fetal echo and low-risk NIPT. Bilateral Renal Pelvis Dilatation: Mild dilation (4.1mm and 3.5mm) is usually not a major concern and often resolves after birth. Continue with your routine prenatal care and follow-up ultrasounds if recommended by your doctor. Given the low-risk NIPT result and the absence of other abnormalities, the pregnancy seems to be progressing normally. If youre feeling uncertain, dont hesitate to discuss these findings with your healthcare provider
