Persistent high fetal rate is a sign that your baby is in distress. Hence close monitoring is required.

Sometimes it can be a transient tachycardia . Maternal fever , stress or activity can lead to it . If it settles then don’t worry . Baby heart rate can be anything between 110-180 beats per minute
