    Explanation:

    A pregnant woman with diabetes is prone to placenta insufficiency thus being unable to support the fetus which can lead to fetal death. Additionally, a history of hypertension which is usually associated with diabetes can also affect efficient functioning of the placenta. Lastly, the history of stillbirth is also an indication of NST.
