Question about fetal heartrate

Post by 4fanops »

I had my first ulrasound last friday and I was 6w5d. The heart rate was 126. The MD said that it was fine. I remember from my last pregnancies the HR seemed to be higher in the 150s. Is a HR of 126 okay? I was told that the chance on miscarriage decreases to below 10% once a HR in detected on ultrasound. Any input would be appreciated!

My understanding is that a hearbeat over 120 between 6.3-7.0 weeks is considered normal. Congratulations!

Over 120 is best. Congratulations!
Avoid IVF and surrogacy in Ukraine. Ukrainian centers pay shills to post here under numerous sock accounts pretending to be patients in Ukraine. Centers using such deceptive advertising cannot be trusted and should be avoided.
