Can exercise during pregnancy help your baby's heart rate?
Part of Heart & circulation, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial uses a wireless monitor to track the baby's heart rate while you exercise. The goal is to learn how physical activity affects the baby in healthy expectant mothers.

This trial checks if eating chocolate can help improve a special baby heart rate test (non-stress test) for women with a pregnancy between 36 and 41 weeks. It's for those whose baby's first test wasn't as active as expected.
This study checks how well a baby's heart works during labor and right after birth. It uses a special monitor (CTG with STAN) to see if the baby's heart responds normally to the stress of labor.
This study tests a special belt (Nemo Fetal Monitoring System) that tracks your baby's heart rate while you exercise. It aims to see if the belt works well and is safe during workouts in the third trimester.
This trial looks at how a mother's physical activity during pregnancy might affect her newborn's heart function. It is part of a larger study called PregMouv, and researchers want to see if staying active leads to better heart rate variability in babies.
This study tests whether a routine heart recording test (ECG) can capture fetal (baby) heart activity during late pregnancy. It may help researchers find simpler ways to monitor baby heart rhythm without special equipment.
This study looks at whether doing moderate exercise during pregnancy is safe and helpful for both mom and baby's heart health. If you are in your first trimester and do not have any high-risk conditions, you might be able to join.
