Ultrasound transvaginal @ 5 wks 4 days saw heart beat at 115 bpm , dr wants to do a viability ultrasound at 8 weeks why if there was a heart beat ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Confirmation: Doesn't sound like anything to worry about...Typically we seen the heart rate at about 6 weeks. 115bpm is on the lower side of normal, but this isn't uncommon if it is right when the heart first starts beating. The doctor wants to give your baby a couple of weeks to ensure that the heart rate is normal. Likely if at the next sono the HR is around 160's, that is a great sign. Good luck!
