Fetal heart rate is considered an important index of fetal well-being, especially during the third trimester of pregnancy (Rodney JR, Huntley BJ, Rodney WM, 2012). An increase in the FHR of 5-25 beats per min (bpm) in response to maternal exercise has been established as a normal reaction(Riemann,Kanstrup Hansen, 2000)however the normal FHR response to maternal exercise has remained unclear for several reasons
Most of the studies are focused on obtain data in order to examine the fetal heart rate response to maternal exercise using cardiotocography measurements prior to and following maternal exercise
