A Fetal Brain Monitor (FBM) utilizes a transducer which is placed on the abdomen of a mother and which is pulsed to generate auditory sounds, i.e., clicks, to provide auditory brainstem evoked responses (BAER) of a fetus within the mother's uterus. The fetus' brain waves are detected by a biosensor, amplified, converted to digital data, and analyzed, in one embodiment, using a digital comb filter to improve the signal/noise ratio. The computer system uses QEEG (Quantitative EEG) to compare the data from the fetus to normative data or to prior states of the fetus' own data (self-norm)
