I went into the ER because I was bleeding. I'm barely 6 weeks. They told me my babys heartbeat wasn't beating how it normally Should. I am worried,is there anything I can do? This is my first pregnancy.

Yeah, 8 weeks is the norm for hearing the heartbeat so its not odd that it is irregular at this point. Also spotting is usually considered normal for pregnancy though it hasn't happened to me personally. If you went to the doctor and that was all they had to say that was negative, I wouldn't worry too much. Just take it easy until you start taking your tests and get your first ultrasound

To soon to hear heartbeat.  Heartbeat at 6 weeks if there is one is low and faint.

My boy didn't have a heartbeat at 6:3. At 7:3 the heartbeat was 129. At 29 weeks heartbeat is between 150-180.  I also spotted the first four months.

I wouldn't worry its to soon.

I was actually able to see the heartbeat. They did not check that. All they said was my baby's heartbeat wasn't normal.

If you're barley 6 weeks it may not be possible to see or hear. Did they check your hcg levels? Before I bled with my micarriage (at 6.5 weeks) my hcg dropped to 16 from over 1000.
