non stress test

When I first heard the term non stress test I thought, what the heck is that? I personally think tests in general are stressful situations. But I for one have never been a really good test taker.
I have had three non-stress tests now and for the most part they are just that...non stressful, you go into this little room and they put two monitors on your tummy, one to see if you are having contractions one to listen to the babies heart beat. You sit in a leather lazy boy with your feet up and watch what ever TV show is on at the time. I get a little button to push every time Fredrika moves.
Why didn't we have this type of tests in school? I could get A's on them all the time.
Oh yeah I did say a name didn't I. Well everyone wants to know what they should call our little one. Patrick and I affectionately tell them to call her Fredrika, it could be her actual name, it might not be her actual name... you'll find out for sure when she decides she is done baking... Until then Fredrika it is...
