welcome to HCM!
there are many conditions in which foetal bradycardia can occur.
like congental heart diseases in foetus.
or maternal conditions like hypothyroidism , hypothermia,taking beta blockers.
or antibodies from mother damaging foetal heart.
the cause has to be known first.
meanwhile take steroid and terbutalin.
all the best!
