Question 1

what is the normal fetal heart rate at 11 weeks?

Accepted Answer

Varies: The normal fetal heart rate at 11 weeks gestation could be anywhere from 110 to 170 beats per minute.

Question 2

what is a normal fetal heart rate at 6 weeks 5 days? is 111bpm too slow? my baby was measuring 2 days ahead at 7 weeks? do i have a high chance of miscarriage? im so scared to lose this baby?

Accepted Answer

Heart rates vary: Cardiac activity of a 6 wk embryo, of a  15-30 wk fetus or of a "baby" can change frequently depending on many maternal and other factors. A heart rate of 111bpm heard for just a few minutes at 6wk 5 days may need to be recorded again to tell if it is persistent or transient. Science may not be able to predict accurately your risk of miscarriage based on the heart rate of your embryo alone.

Question 3

is 170bpm normal for fetal heart rate at 22 weeks pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Can be: Usually 110 -170 is considered normal.

Question 4

is it normal for the fetal heart rate to slow down at night? i'm 11 weeks pregnant. normally baby's heart rate is 150's last night it was 120's.

Accepted Answer

Yes, somewhat: Yes, 120s to 150s is normal for a resting fetal heart rate. However , the ob's always talk about laying on different sides to ensure proper blood flow to the uterus, so make sure to shift position, and not to lay too long on one side. The baby is going to sleep inside of you too, and the heart rate may go down a bit while that is happening.

Question 5

what is a normal fetal heart rate at 6 weeks pregnant. i just got my ultrasound today at 6 weeks, 1 day.the heart rate was 103 bpm, that was slow ?

Accepted Answer

Fetal Heart Rate: That is so low that many of us would assume that this is your heart rate and not the baby's.

Question 6

fetal heart rate at 8 weeks was 163 bpm but today at 9 weeks it was 144. is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Normal: A fetal heart rate can range from 110 to 170. Anything between this is considered normal.   A babies heart rate will vary just like yours does.

Question 7

my fetus had a heart rate of 171 bpm at both 8 and 11 weeks. is this a healthy fetal heart rate at 11 weeks? my baby book says normal range is 120-160

Accepted Answer

Normal : The average fetal heart rate is between 110 and 160. As early as you are a heart rate of 170 is not a cause for concern

Question 8

at 33 weeks fetal heart rate is 162. is that normal?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Normal FH rate is 120-160 with frequent accelerations &gt; 15 points. If you listened longer, you would have heard the variability in the rate.

Question 9

i am 20 weeks 6 days pregnant. my fetal heart rate is 152bpm. is this normal at this gestational age?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Yes that is normal.

Question 10

i'm 12 weeks pregnant and so far i've only seen my normal family doctor.  he check fetal heart rate but that's it,  should i be seeing anyone else?

Accepted Answer

I suggest "yes": Unless your family doctor has an active obstetrical practice - delivers babies and sees patents for prenatal care - you need to start seeing an OBGyn or provider who doe these things. In some communities family docs do obstetrics, but unless yours is one of them, you now need an OB doctor, not just a "doctor." Good wishes.
