Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Non-Reactive Fetal heart rate. Timepoint: Before and after the intervention, the fetal heart rate test will be recorded. If there are 2 times of increasing the heart rate of the fetus by the number of 15 from the base line for 15 seconds, the result is Reactive. Method of measurement: before and after the intervention, the fetal heart rate test will be recorded and studied. The fetal heart rate test is recorded on both occasions by a computerized device, and if there are 2 times of increasing the heart rate of the fetus by the number of 15 from the base line for 15 seconds, the result is Reactive.;Before and one hour after the intervention, the blood sugar of the participants will be measured and recorded. Timepoint: Before and one hour after the intervention, the blood sugar of the participants will be measured and recorded with a glucometer. Method of measurement: Glucometer.	—
