Too early to tell. In pregnancies under 6 1/2 weeks, a fetal heart rate greater than 100 is associate with a high chance that the pregnancy will progress past 13 weeks (> 90%). If the heart rate is less than 100, the chances fall to 60%-65%. Thus, while I wish the heart rate were higher, things have a good chance of working out, although I am a bit worried. I am keeping my fingers crossed with you!
