How To Monitor FHR During Labor

A midwife recommended this website to me and his has been helpful in knowing how to monitor the FHR- fetal heart rate, during labor. I have a medical grade fetal Doppler that I use now to listen to the baby, but I was unsure when exactly that you use it with labor or birth. I wondered if you were to use it during a contraction or after a contraction. I knew that the babies heart rate was suppose to change with contractions but I didn't know the heart rate ranges. This website gives an in depth explanation, it gets sort of complicated, but if full of great information.
