Pregnant and have a question..the pregnancy forum is closed

I had an ultrasound at 6 weeks and 2 days my baby's heartrate was 116 bpm...I keep hearing women say their baby's heartrate was more at that time! I have seen though that it also could be normal..Any of you remember your baby's heart rate at that time??
I had 2 miscarriages...Thanks!

Hi Rain. I think at 6 weeks, the baby's heart is JUST starting to beat and i have read that it can start off slow. I think the normal range is 120-160, but if the babies heartbeat just started, it may be lower. I think your number sounds fine for 6 weeks. It should have picked up by the next ultrasound.

Sounds good to me!  Mine was only 107 and then 117.  Went up from there.  All is good with him.  I think your fine!

Sounds fine! Mine was 114 at 7 weeks! I'm 26 now and we're both doing fine! (Anxious...but fine!)
