Concerning assessment of the fetus, the maternity nurse should be aware that:
 
  1. the fetal heart tones are heard (in the second trimester) by a Doppler stethoscope, whereas the fetal heart rate (third trimester) is heard by the ultrasound fetoscope or stethoscope.
  2. the measure of fundal height on the woman's abdomen is a gross measure, and various techniques and procedures can be used on the same patient.
  3. there is no need to use ultrasound exams (sonograms) until later in the pregnancy unless there are indications of distress.
  4. expectant mothers should count fetal kicks after a meal.
