Slow heart beat at 6weeks

by marisa27, Sep 24, 2008 08:41AM
It is the second time that i am pregnant this year. In May i suffered a missed miscarriage, so trying not to feel too anxious this time round. I had an internal scan today and they managed to find the sac and the baby had a heartbeat, however there nurse said it is very slow and i am due in next week to have another scan. I didn't think at the time to ask for an actual heart rate reading, but they feel it may be due to them doing a scan at the earliest stage possible that it is slow. Has anyone else had the same problems and what was the outcome? Is there anything that i can do to ensure everything goes ok? xxx

I had a missed miscarriage and ended up getting pregnant 6 weeks afterwords. I went in for a scan at 6w1d and the baby had a heart rate of only 95 (normal range is 120-160). They said it was most likely because it had just started beating. I now have a healthy 9 month old daughter. Try not to worry (easier said than done I know) its normal.
