I went for my 11 week ultrasound today, and they said they do not measure heart rate beyond 10 weeks. I found a lot of information online about measuring the range of heart beat so it’s in the right range, so I expected to find out. However not measuring it — seems odd to me — is this consistent with your experiences at other hospitals too

No. Even if they don’t do an ultrasound, my baby’s heart rate is at least checked via doppler at every appointment. I may be unusual since I have a couple of conditions that make me high risk, but I’m 35 weeks and counting.

I went in for my first appt at 10 weeks and they checked the baby’s heartbeat right off the bat. They should be checking the heartbeat every visit

Yeah, I was told the same and they started using Doppler since week 16. Before that, I kept asking and each time they said it is an unnecessary force to the baby which they don’t want to use

Thank you for sharing your experience !!

I’ve never heard that. They have been measuring the heart rate for me since my first scan at 7 weeks. Currently 19 weeks

I’m about to start a new job and I’m NERVOUS. I love my current GM, location and staff. But the owner is a nightmare. Nothing I do is right for her. She has a complaint about everything I do. She speaks to me like I’m stupid in front of many people. But I’m still nervous. I strongly believe that sometimes the devil you know is better than the devil you don’t know. What if I’m going into a worse situation? Do I stay in this bad one or risk a possible worse one? I guess I wont know unless I try.

Had a very unpleasant experience with the entire interview process at Paytm. First of all they kept all three rounds in a single day . It started from the morning and ended up till the final round at late evenings. After all the rounds were cleared, the HR asked for the expected package, and when I gave him my quote which was just 35% more than my current CTC, he got reluctant and said we only have a budget of an X amount which was just 10% more than my current CTC. Who on earth does that..?
