i agree with the other ladies.  normally they do not measure the heartbeat and worry til the 6th week.  your lil beans heartbeat could have literally just started working and that is why it is on the slower end.  I bet it will be up there when you go back.

Do you have any news?  I am 5 weeks 5 days and I am having spotting and cramping.  I went in for an ultrasound and there was a heart beat but it was really slow according to the doctor.  He said it didn't look good.  

I have had 3 miscarriage and 1 child.  I bled on and off during the 1st trimester with my son and during the last trimester.  I had so many complicatins.  He really is a miracle baby.  I am hoping for the best with this pregnancy.

We didn't even see the heartbeat until 6w1d and then it was only like 95 I think which is slow. Sped up a little while later and now I have a healthy 9 month old daughter.

Most doctors dont even record the heartbeat that early. I didnt get to hear my babys heartbeat until I was 10 weeks although I did get to see it at 6 via ultrasound. Honestly I would not worry unless it is slow a little farther along!!! Keep us updated!
