Heart rate - 1st Trimester

[nikkie122]

I had my 8 week appointment and the baby’s heart rate was 174. Does that seem to high or am I just being paranoid?

HR is usually high for babies . Your beans HR seems to be within normal range .

That sounds normal. Babies' heart rates are higher than ours

Sounds perfect to me!

they do say a heart rate over 140 means a girl!

My boys had high heart rates at the early appointments - my oldest was 169 (7+3) and my youngest was 178 (8+4). Healthy pregnancies I think heart rate peaks around 10ish weeks so it will be really high at 8 weeks.
