A member asked:

Is 117 bpm too slow for exactly 7 weeks? what is the chances that everything's ok? i'm so afraid i'll miscarry. do you think i might lose the baby?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not at all: The embryo's heart rate starts out at around 100 and then slowly increases until averages 120-160 at around 7-8 weeks. If you just turned 7 weeks, then this can be a totally normal heart rate. If you're concerned, consider asking for doctor or rn to repeat the ultrasound in a week or so to alleviate your worries. Good luck!
