Explanation:
1. Early fetal heart rate decelerations can occur with intracranial pressures of 40 to 55 mmHg, as the head pushes against the cervix.
2. The fetus is experiencing labor as the woman labors.
3. Beginning at about 37 or 38 weeks' gestation, the fetus is able to experience sensations of light, sound, and touch.
4. Blood flow is decreased to the fetus at the peak of each contraction and fetal oxygen saturation drops about 10.
5. Fetal blood pressure protects the normal fetus during the anoxic periods caused by the contracting uterus during labor.
