heart rate

Is it normal that my baby's heart rate went from 150 to 130. I heard as the baby gets bigger the heart rate goes down. Has anyone else heard this?

I use my Doppler a lot and the babies heart rate seems to go between 140 and 155 alot. The doctor keeps saying its health so I'm assuming it is OK. I think what time of day I take it effects it. If I've just eaten or had sugar. I'm 16 weeks tomorrow.

Yep, like your heart rate your baby's will change depending on if its asleep, moving, how far alomg it is, if your in pain, or if you've just drank something cold or eaten something sugary. As long as its between 130-160 with some fluctuations and decelarations all is good :)
