Hi, I’m Hilary Erickson from The Pregnancy Nurse.

There is not one single post titled “The Definitive Guide to Third Trimester Testing Problems,” but I do have resources that walk you through what can come up in the third trimester, especially around extra testing and why it is ordered.

For example, I cover:

  1. Extra ultrasounds and anatomy checks
  2. BPP’s (biophysical profiles)
  3. NST’s (non-stress tests)
  4. Preeclampsia labs and other follow-up testing

I go into how to understand why a test is ordered and how results may affect decisions like induction in my third-trimester content and inside The Online Prenatal Class for Couples, which has a whole lesson on third trimester testing and how to talk with your provider if problems pop up.

Are you asking about a specific test (like NST, BPP, or growth ultrasound) so I can point you to the most helpful resource?
