My daughter's was 129 at 6w4d, and she's a happy, healthy 1-yr old now. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756313 Sat, 08 Jul 2017 19:03:53 +0000 winniebee 2756313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like with our recent pregnancy it was 110 or so at 6+3/4 and I thought it was low. He's here in my arms. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756311 Sat, 08 Jul 2017 19:01:30 +0000 sarac 2756311@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine was 92 at 6w1d, and I was bleeding. That gave me a 50% chance of miscarriage. That baby is two next week. 118 is perfectly fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756286 Sat, 08 Jul 2017 17:10:02 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2756286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: thank you for that. You're right! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756169 Fri, 07 Jul 2017 20:37:34 +0000 yoursilverlining 2756169@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think you have to decide whether or not you want to trust your doctor, or Google. Also whether you want to continue for the next 9 months with the level of anxiety and stress you have had so far - it doesn't seem sustainable or enjoyable. I hope you can't find a way to feel more empowered soon :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756163 Fri, 07 Jul 2017 20:02:59 +0000 Truth Bombs 2756163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At my six week ultrasound they told me that if they could even pick up a heartbeat, anything over 90 is good. I think your pregnancy will be a lot more enjoyable/less stressful if you trust your medical professionals and resist the urge to google! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756162 Fri, 07 Jul 2017 20:01:36 +0000 snarkybiochemist 2756162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At 6+3 my baby was measuring 6 wks exactly and the heartbeat was detectable as a flicker but I wasn't given a number I had a follow up at 6+6 due to bleeding and the baby measured 6+4 with a heart rate of 125. I am currently 20wks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756158 Fri, 07 Jul 2017 19:51:14 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2756158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>6 weeks 5 days was 122. He is now 3 and crazy! :)</p> <p>ETA: my daughters was way higher. Maybe you're having a boy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756153 Fri, 07 Jul 2017 19:24:59 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2756153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They called back and reiterated that it's normal. So, I guess I should stop worrying so much! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756152 Fri, 07 Jul 2017 19:24:32 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2756152@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ocean81: yes, in 3 weeks </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756141 Fri, 07 Jul 2017 18:33:06 +0000 ocean81 2756141@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>85 at 7 weeks. And I was bleeding! She's 2 now. Do you have a follow up even if it's just for your own peace of mind? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756139 Fri, 07 Jul 2017 18:18:51 +0000 travellingbee 2756139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My little guy was 100 bpm (+ or -a couple). The doctor wasn't concerned cause it was so early but google had me freaked out. He's 18 months old so I guess it was fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756133 Fri, 07 Jul 2017 17:30:38 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2756133@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PawPrints: I actually found that when I did a search and was so relieved when I saw that your baby was healthy. I actually have no idea what my daughter's was at this point. In fact, I think my first ultrasound with her was 7 weeks, so I wouldn't be able to compare anyway. My doctor probably thinks I'm insane for calling back to make sure. They haven't returned my call yet. I'm one of *those* patients! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756121 Fri, 07 Jul 2017 16:28:36 +0000 PawPrints 2756121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>During my first pregnancy, I got an ultrasound at 6w1d and the heartrate was 109. I got a comment back on the report that said something like "it's curious that the heartbeat is so low" but that they weren't concerned. I was NOT HAPPY and did a ton of googling and found out it's totally normal. DD is two years old now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756117 Fri, 07 Jul 2017 16:12:23 +0000 Littlebit7 2756117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Take your heart rate now and in 5 minutes. The variability might surprise you. 118 is practically 120. Try not to worry. And going forward if you think you might be a worrier, trust your Ob, try to stay off Dr Google unless absolutely necessary. Every hiccup, cramp, twinge, kick according to google "means" you have some horrible disease or baby has XYZ. It will add so much unecessary stress to your life. It's a black hole. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756115 Fri, 07 Jul 2017 15:58:32 +0000 lilteacherbee 2756115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With DD, I went at 6 weeks exactly and the heartrate was 119. She's currently 2 months and sleeping right next to me :happy: I think you're totally fine! Congrats! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756112 Fri, 07 Jul 2017 15:54:28 +0000 LCTBQE 2756112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also had a very low number for that first appointment--I think it was the low 120s. I asked if I should be worried that it was slow, and my OB explained that it varies pretty wildly even from minute to minute with the same baby. Try to stay cool and be reassured that your doctor is unconcerned :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756088 Fri, 07 Jul 2017 15:07:39 +0000 FaithFertility 2756088@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They wouldn't even tell me that early! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756087 Fri, 07 Jul 2017 15:06:22 +0000 bloved 2756087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know it's hard not to worry, but I think that it totally fine! A lot of times at 6w mark, it can be hard for them to even measure the heartbeat. I know for my first, I went at 6w1 day and it was too small to measure and he is now a crazy 4 year old.<br /> Congratulations! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/6w3d-fetal-heart-rate#post-2756086 Fri, 07 Jul 2017 15:02:42 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2756086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine was 118 today. Doctor said that was "excellent." However, I Googled and I have found a few things saying over 120 is good. Now I'm worried. What was yours around this point? </p>
