low baby heart rate in early pregancy

my ultrasound showed the baby's heart rate at 100 at 6 1/2 weeks pregant.  Should I be concern that this means a miscarriage or an abnormality in the baby?

I agree with the other ladies. You are awfully early still.  I saw my babies h/b at 6w2d.  The ultrasound tech told me they wanted it between 80 and 120...that was considered normal.  Good luck, and congrats on your pregnancy!

100 that early is no that uncommon. i think my baby was 114 at that point if i remember correctly.  i am 5 days from my due date :)
it should be over 120 at your next scan.
